Gold as a Solid Investment
The currency crisis is coming. There’s no mistaking what we’re all watching on the news and feeling in the air. It’s almost tangible.
Take charge of your future and that of your family: protect yourself and profit from an economic upset that could literally render your dollars about as worthless as the paper they’re printed on.
We saw a sneak preview of this kind of economic crisis relatively recently. In early 2006, a currency plunge triggered an avalanche of sell orders in emerging markets from Brazil to Indonesia. The Icelandic krona plunged nearly 10 percent in only two days, dragging down the Icelandic stocks and bonds with it and subsequently spread to Brazil, Mexico, Poland and Turkey.
A precursor to this was the Asian Currency Crash of 1997, which sent stocks south like ducks in winter. Banks, insurance companies, real estate and bonds also fled the scene. The ONLY viable option left was gold. Think about that, folks.
Not IF, but WHEN yet another decline hits the U.S., gold will be worth at least 10 times its current value. Comparatively, the U.S. dollar has lost 95% of its purchasing power since the creation of the Federal Reserve.
The proof is in the numbers. In 1918, gold spot price was $20.67 per ounce. Almost equal to a $20 bill. What can you buy now with an ounce of gold versus what you can buy with a $20 bill?
Is this really possible?
Absolutely. Since gold cannot be made or printed at the whim of greedy politicians, it can’t be devalued as quickly as the paper money that is printed whenver need arises.
When a currency is backed by gold, $1 in paper money has to be backed by approximately one dollar’s worth of gold. Once a currency is no longer backed by gold, governments can print as much as needed. Naturally, most world governments have gone off the Gold Standard and that is why paper money has no intrinsic value. As a result, most major institutions only speculate short term between those currencis and associated local values, such as stocks or bonds, and then they convert their profit into gold.
This is where United States Precious Metals excels. We specialize in helping you establish an ideal precious metals portfolio to fir your needs, no matter your budget.
Best Way to Buy Gold for Investment Purposes
One of the best ways to invest in gold is by buying gold coins. Gold coins have proven accessible and secure investment ideas for new investors and have made their way into the books of experienced investors to suit the cause of tangible value in addition to ease of liquidation.
Other ways to invest in gold include the purchase of gold bullion, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), or even gold-backed stocks. Still, among all of these choices, little beats investing in gold coins, because there is historical significance, ease of carrying, and thus potential increase in value.
For anyone looking to seek knowledge on how to invest in gold coins, our United States Precious Metals team is here to guide you through the entire process and help make informed investment decisions.
