Explore real-life stories revealing how Rush enables families to talk about finances in new ways. From Georgia Lee’s strategic gifting to Leo Vasilunas’ empowered independence, the power of tangible investments are sparking crucial conversations about wealth and security.
Many families want to set the next generation on the road to financial security as early as possible. Increasing numbers of Rush investors are doing just that – utilising Rush’s gifting functionality to introduce their loved ones to the power of precious metals.
Georgia Lee, mother of 3 adult children, and Leo Vasilunas, a determined 19-year-old, have shared their experiences with Rush. Their stories illustrate the impact of gifting gold through our platform, and the benefits they believe it offers for both the giver and the recipient.
Georgia Lee: empowering financial security
For Georgia Lee, investing in her children’s future goes beyond traditional gifts. With each major milestone such as graduation and birthday, she gifts them 99.99% pure LMBA gold bullion. She can do this instantly, even from overseas. A long-term Rush customer, Georgia values this opportunity to express her love with tangible investments for her children.
“It’s more than just a gift,” Georgia reflects. “Gold has historically been a valuable asset that tends to hold its worth over time and it’s not only a tangible way to show how much we care but also an investment in their future financial security.”
“Usually, gifting gold – either jewellery or some other form of gold – would be a logistical challenge – but this has made it easier!” she notes. “With Rush, it’s as simple as a few taps on my phone. Plus, it opens up conversations about financial literacy and the importance of investing wisely.”
Georgia continues “With their first gift, we talked about how to set up gold prices so they can track the value of their investment, and choose their time to add to their golden nest egg. Plus I love that Rush keeps them (and me!) up to date about gold pricing and economic updates so even if we don’t have time to chase the information, we understand the forces that are influencing the value of our investment.”
Georgia’s children also embrace the sentiment behind the gift, often choosing to add their own funds to their gold holdings. “It’s a gateway to investment,” she says with pride.
“They see the value in preserving and growing their wealth, and Rush makes it accessible and engaging for them.”
Leo Vasilunas: achieving financial independence, one gram at a time
For Leo Vasilunas, receiving gold on his 18th birthday was a revelation. “It was unlike any gift I’d ever received,” he recalls. “Not only was it unique and cool, but it made me feel like I was actually now an adult with real investment assets!”
From the moment Leo received the notification of his gift, he felt its significance. “Since I received it, I have been watching as the value of the gold has increased,” he shares. “It was my first real investment as an adult, and it meant the world to know that my grandmother and aunt were thinking ahead for me. I loved the personal message they sent along with it in the app too!”
Leo views his gold investment as an important step in his financial strategy. “I’m not in a hurry to spend it,” he explains. “Instead, I see it as a safety net—a foundation I can build on with other investment assets as I get older. Plus – I’ve just got my first job so I’m looking forward to adding to my Rush account too!”
