A Guide to Precious Metals IRAs from Swiss America

Protect your savings with a Gold IRA for seniors

Owning physical gold or silver coins and bars can offset the money-stealing effects of inflation, crisis and stock market volatility.

  • Diversify: Gold and silver prices move differently than the stock market, real estate or bitcoin.
  • Track record: People have used gold and silver as money for thousands of years.
  • Fight inflation: If you bought $5,000 of gold in 2000, it would be worth about $79,000 today.*
  • No counterparty risk: Gold and silver do not rely on a company or a bank to have value.
  • Scarcity: Gold and silver have a limited supply and cannot be worth zero like a stock can.
  • *Based on average 2000 gold price vs. current spot price. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
