Everyone at some point in their lives considers what they will do when they retire and how they will support themselves and their loved ones. The threat of the constant negatively changing economy and the issues we face with medical costs, insurances and other daily costs of living -make Investing for the future the number one priority. However, how do you invest in your future when the Investments of the past are no longer a sure thing, and with countries facing bankruptcy as well as banks and businesses there is only one way forward.
Gold and Other Precious Metals
It used to be enough to invest in property and know that your life in the future would be catered for, but that is no longer the case and even property moguls have gone under with the world economy failing, but what is still a constant is our thirst for even more technology and development in other areas, which require the use of precious metals such as gold, Silver and Platinum. It stands to reason that demand for these precious commodities remain high and the demand far outweighs the supply, which is driving the cost of gold through the roof. At the moment of writing this, gold is at over 1,200 usd an ounce and shows no sign of stopping. Even though the price fluctuates normally, their have been rumors that gold could rise to 5,000 USD per ounce. This means that more and more investors are choosing precious metals as the investments for the future.
Gold Ira’s are worth the Investment
Some Ira products do not play out the way they are supposed to and what you believe to be true may not be the silver lining to the cloud. Nevertheless, there is great news on the Horizon and you can roll over your original Ira to a new Gold Ira. Now this does not mean that you are only tied to Gold, as you can easily add other precious commodities to your Ira thanks to changes within the rules and regulations governed by the IRS. So it makes sense that if you wish to invest in your future, you should consider investing in Gold and other precious metals; these will give you a far superior return on your investment and is less of a risk than property which quickly can devalue because of inflation and the cost of the dollar.
How has gold risen and what could you expect?
Let’s look at it this way, lets say that you invested 10,000 dollars way back when gold was less maybe in 2008 before the financial crises and you have matured to what it would be worth today. You would be getting triple if not more of a return and in some cases ten times as much. That’s not a bad investment and a nice nest egg for retirement. Consider this, Gold has survived thousands of years of a man-made market and its manipulations and failed currencies like the devaluing of the dollar or pound or euro. So hedging your investments, if you placed 30% of your money into gold, you would of course survive all these fluctuations and would be sitting quite financially secure in the future. If the Federal reserve decides to stop printing paper money , the stock market goes up and you are sitting pretty. Even if the stock market crashes, your investment is still safe and therefore the wisest of all investors are now investing into our precious metals. I know where I will be in the future. The question is this; How secure do you want to be?
