This article does not attempt, except in a general way, to indicate Plutarch's sources for this Life, since any such attempt, in the absence of much of the relevant literature, is foredoomed to failure. It aims rather at showing the different types of biographical literature which grew up around this figure and which form the basis of Plutarch's Life, and to show what seems the most probable relationship of this Life to the biography of Nepos and to Cicero's Cato, both of which works have, in the present writer's opinion, been too readily assumed by some critics as Plutarch's sources. We may most conveniently deal with Plutarch's Life first, and then pass on to Cicero's and Nepos' presentations.

Since the beginning of gold standards, gold is always preferred over paper currency. Over the years, gold has been found to have a peculiar linkage with different asset classes. The current study is an attempt to analyse the probable relationship of gold prices with crises. The current study highlights as to how gold could act as a saviour during the time of global crisis like the current pandemic (COVID 19). Additionally, it conducts a comparative assessment of gold returns vis-à-vis equity market returns and inflation over the last decade. Finally, the study concludes with alternative gold investment options and policy remarks.
