A friend of mine called me yesterday and said he had found a get new way to invest. He told me about his precious metals he was collecting. Now Like the title says it is new to many of us because it wasn’t worth the leg work and effort before the stock market crash. However it is coming back, and bigger then ever. With the price of Silver, Gold, and Platinum at an all time high it isn’t such a bad idea either. Today’s investors are weary of the stock market as many of them, my friend included, have seen their 401K plans lose money. So his idea, and many others are to get back to secure investment plans. As he put it, “It is money in my hand.” Now many of you are thinking just what I did, and that is where do you store all this Gold and Silver. Well he has a plan that isn’t a bad idea. He is buying up old coins. Just normal Quarters, Dimes, and Half Dollars. All of those pre 1968 coins have silver in them, many of which are high ratio of Silver. So he buys the coin from a coin shop and saves it as a precious metal. Most of the ones he buys are instant profit because the Silver in them is worth more then the coin it self. So if your looking for a new, old, way to invest look into precious metals the value is still very solid. Who knows you might become the next Ted Turner.
