How to invest in gold?

Heyho dear Getquin Community,

I have two three amateurish questions.

I've been saving €100 a month for a good two years now. $VWCE (-3,47%) (I'm a student, so the savings rate isn't too high - but it should be increased gradually over an investment horizon of 40 years)

Now, as suggested in some of the posts here, I would invest 15-20% each in gold $BTC (-0,17%) and gold.

Here I have now repeatedly $WGLD (-2,25%) and $IGLN (-2,16%) How do the two colleagues differ and which of the two would you recommend and why?

(I save the ETF via ING, but I can't invest in Bitcoin or gold here, so I would have to do this separately via Scalable. But a custody account transfer for one ETF would be nonsense, wouldn't it?)

The $WGLD works with ING. I had it in my savings plan

@Bein-Godik How does it work if you decide to have the gold handed over to you? Are the shares then sold automatically?

@Income_expert I have no idea. Why should you have the gold handed over to you? I just sell my shares again when I want to get rid of them

@Bein-Godik was just a thought of mine. :D
I also created a savings plan for the ETF, thanks for the tip.

@Income_expert I would also buy gold physically ;-)

In addition to my global ETF custody account, I also hold 10% in $BTC via BISON and 10% in gold, also in the form of $EWG2 via Scalable. So I have two more asset classes in addition to the ETFs. It was important to me that it was "real" physically deposited gold, which I could also have sent to me if necessary. And that is the case with $EWG2.

@femkelbn Thank you very much for your valuable thoughts :)
May I ask why you save BTC and gold with different brokers?

@SteinInvest Because I wanted "real" bitcoins and not an ETC. That's why I opted for BISON for Bitcoin and the rest is done via Scalable. ☺️

@femkelbn okay, that sounds plausible :)
I've implemented both like that, I think it's great. Thanks :D
