The only way I’d invest in PM’s is physical PM’s. i.e. something I put in a safe deposit box. I think the rest is fake.
Yup. If you can’t hold it in your hand, you don’t own it.
There are IRAs where the metals are kept segregated in a depository so your stuff is not comingled with others’ metals.
I would not put it in a safety deposit box.
I do not trust the bank/government.
Buy yourself a big gun safe.
