How much silver does the average American own? (2024)
How many ounces of gold do you need for a house? When we take the $241,000 median national price for an existing single family home and divide it by the $1,770 annual average price to buy an ounce of gold, we come up with a Gold to Housing ratio for 2020 of 136, meaning it took 136 ounces of gold to purchase an average single family home.
