Since the beginning of 2002, US dollars held in 3-month US Treasury Bills have yielded less than 3% per year (Source: Global Financial Data). Considering that the inflation rate over this same period of time has averaged more than 3% annually (Source: US CPI), the cash accumulated had less buying power in January 2007 than it did five years earlier.

Over this same period of time, the gold price in US dollars increased by 130% - an average gain of 26% per year.

And the silver price in US dollars increased by 183% - an average gain of 36% per year.

Assume you had placed $10,000 into 3-month U.S. Treasury Bills at the beginning of 2002. At the end of five years, the buying power of your money would have decreased by -$116.19, or -1.2%, when taking inflation into account.

If instead you had used $5,000 to purchase gold and silver ($2,500 each) and put the other $5,000 into 3-month U.S. Treasury Bills, your buying power would have increased by $5,977.28, a gain of 59.8%.
