So You Can…

Having gold and other tangible assets in your IRA has never been more important than today. It has also never been easier with a precious metals IRA.

With a precious metals IRA you can invest in qualified assets such as gold, silver and real estate. Quantitative Easing has increased the demand for gold over four fold in the last few years. Demand for hard-assets like gold & silver bullion and real estate have trickled-down to include the money held in most retirement accounts. For the would-be retirement investor, using gold and other hard assets as a currency hedge is a smart move.

The printing of more US currency can only occur for so long before the value of the dollar begins to slip. Having your money held in a gold IRA has the following additional benefits:

1.Gold can act as a hedge against inflationary times.

2.Properly structured, your IRA provides you with the ability to hold the actual asset, instead of being forced to own your gold in the form of ETF or some other “on paper” asset.

3.Gold IRAs do not have the same tax implications as strictly investing in gold. More specifically, your IRA allows pre or post-tax investing in your precious metal.

4.Investors can buy gold by performing rollovers to a self-directed account without tax or early distribution penalties.
