Don’t buy gold and silver unless you understand it. I listened to these experts in 2008 and lost my buy. These TV brokers get 40% right off the top. So if the price doubles, you break even, but the TV guys make a ton with no risk. If you really want to buy it, go to a pawn shop or gold buyer. They make 10%, but only selling.

“Don’t buy gold and silver unless you understand it. “

Yeah, gold as a component of a diversified portfolio is a good idea. It has done well over the last 20 years as has the S&P 500 and other market indices.

The key is diversification and leaving investments alone for decades to grow and absorb the ups and downs.

Thats why you only buy from coin dealers at a small spot over the daily.
