Gold and Silver Investment with Blanchard Gold
When you’re starting out your career most don’t consider the long play of investments when it’s time to retire. I never considered my retirement in 40 years when I started working in the investment field.
When your starting our you need to consider not only the investment options your employer provides, but also alternative investments in such areas as gold or silver.
There are several different types of alternative investments to choose from. Stability and loss of principal is are major concerns. As an investment option consider precious metals as these are a finite material and have a longevity of increasing in value over time.
Diversifying my portfolio I looked to Blanchard Gold as a means to purchase my gold and silver physical assets. This company provides me the option on line to find the best gold available.
The fact Blanchard Gold offers a 100% buyback and they have been in the precious metals business over 40 years is comforting to me. The complete transparency of the sale is comforting and I an even transact up to $10,000 on my credit card.
Blanchard Gold recently offered me an option to transfer my 401(k) from my prior employer as a rollover self-directed IRA. Not considering this option before I looked into converting about 20% of my rollover funds to the IRA.
In my IRA I’m able to hold money in CASH to dollar-cost-average my purchases with Blanchard Gold giving me the ability to lower my overall acquisition cost.
What a great option to hold gold and silver as an investment. There is no immediate income from the investment only the appreciation of the asset over time. The price of gold has increased over 300% since 1996 and that is a great increase for a portion of my portfolio I’m using to stabilize during economic uncertainty and as the value of the dollar has decreased.
If the value of the dollar start to increase, then the value of precious metals will decline. But I’m looking at 10-years till possible retirement and 25 more years of life, so I’m more concerned over preserving what I have today than appreciation based on speculation.
