GOLD IRA AND  SILVER IRA

You can put physical gold and silver into your retirement account.  And the process is actually simple.

As an example, if you currently have an IRA, you can move a part (or all) of it into a Gold IRA / Precious Metals IRA through a process known as a direct transfer which is IRS approved and 100% tax free.

A Gold IRA / Precious Metals IRA is Self-directed IRA that allows for a broader range of alternative investments, including certain types of physical precious metal gold, silver, platinum, and palladium bullion bars and coins which meet specific IRS requirements.

Some of the most popular IRA permissible coins and bars are the American Gold Eagle Coin, Proof Gold American Eagle Coin, Canadian Gold Maple leaf Coin, American Gold Buffalo Coin, Austrian Philharmonic Gold Coin, PAMP Suisse Gold Bar.

You can also rollover a 401(k) from a previous employer (and current employer if you are age 59 ½ or older) into a precious metal IRA and it is also a tax free process.

 

PORTFOLIO PROTECTION

Gold and Silver are often held in portfolios for long term preservation of wealth and diversification.

Gold and Silver are a tangible assets with intrinsic value that have no counter-party risks and cannot be “printed” or created out of thin air. And unlike paper currencies, the value of gold and silver has never gone to zero.
