Both of them are good investment. Not just good the best investment there is. If I were you I would also do the same. Not sure about the $2500 part though.
$100 bill and $100 worth of gold may look the same of value. But they aren't. Paper money will be worthless one day. One the other hand, rare earth elements like gold, silver won't loss it's value. Gold market cap is massive compared to others.
As for bitcoin, there isn't much to say. Without any doubt's we can say it's a good investment.
Both gold and bitcoin are good investment but in the case of gold we buy it at higher value but when we sell it on the same rate then we don't recieve the exact amount therefore you will wait for years to make your investment of gold a better opportunity.
Bitcoin is more volatile than gold but if it comes to the success then success percentage of bitcoin is more than that of gold. Both gold and bitcoin are successful so diversification of investment in these two will be more worthy than putting money in one. Waiting is necessary for both type of Investment therefore self restraint can give you more profitable outcomes.
