Gold Coins


January 28th, 2009

Coins are a popular form for the purchase of  gold as a precious metal and store of value.  They are not only valuable but attractive , and since they are relatively small and portable, they can be kept in a safe in your home or any bank vault.  Most gold coins are minted to weigh 1 ounce, but some weighing as little as 1/ 10 of an ounce are available.  Expect to pay between 5 and 17 percent %  beyond the value of the gold to cover the expenses of minting and retail costs. Popular foreign coins include the Kruggerand (South Africa)  and Canadian Maple Leaf gold coins.

Gold Bullion


January 28th, 2009

Gold bullion: when you buy gold bullion, you are physically buying gold in the form of “bars”  that are 99.9 % pure gold.  You can actually take physical possession of the gold bars, or you can buy the gold through a broker that stores the gold .  Although you can theoretically buy as little as a single ounce of the gold precious metal as bullion, a minimum of 10 ounces is usually the standard minimum amount that is usually required.  A standard gold bar – the gold bar being the standard reference point  is generally 1 kg ( 2.2 lb weight) or stated in another measure 32.15 ounces.

When you buy gold bullion  a charge is made for casting and assaying the precious metal.  In addition some banks or financial institutions may charge a “holding”  or storage fee for holding your gold in their storage facilities.  Of course there are charges to be incurred by the institution whether it be property , maintenance and record keeping and of course security.  The storage fees can be a lump sum or they can be calculated on value and valuations – which of course are liquid and may change greatly over time , financial cycles and crisis.

If you do have gold bullion stored by a bank or broker, make sure that it is in a totally “non-fungible” storage program. This means that your gold is not combined in any manner with the assets of others, but rather held separately and indeed labeled and marked specifically with your name and identification.  Under such an arrangement you have legal title of the gold , and it cannot be considered part of the assets of the bank or dealer, in which form it could be tied up by creditors in the case of liquidation of the financial institution.

Financial Advisers and Your Wealth


January 20th, 2009

Years ago in a small retirement  community , a specific client had hired a person who she called her “investment adviser”.  Unfortunately there is no such accreditation as a “financial adviser”.  It is not as if you can go to school , take a course or degree to become a “financial adviser”. It all remains unproven. Unfortunately anyone can call themselves such a title and give themselves great authority and command , often in their eyes only. Its like anyone who calls themselves a genius and refers to themselves as such , seldom is. Real people with skills seldom do , and the skill set that makes for such expertise – involving planning , follow though and record keeping – exact record keeping seldom are promoters. The problem then becomes one of one giant charlatan act. Woody Allen’s classic line ( from the 1960′s) was “a stockbroker is a professional who invests your money till it is all gone” has gone from stockbroker ( until people realized what it was all about) , to life insurance salesman ( working for a big firm , with a big “head office” and carrying a briefcase with then impressive printed forms. ), to now a “financial planner”.
The humor is that these people who are there to invest your money – have the skills of drunken sailors. They spend money recklessly – watch the big car , the Rolex watch etc etc.
They are anything but thrifty. On top of that they take their take “their piece” or “their pound of flesh right off the top” automatically. Think of it. The “adviser” takes their cut , the mutual fund company or whatever takes their expenses plus a fee, the stock market takes their profit.
It is not unlike going to the horse races where the track and the government taxes all take their share of the action out of a pool of money that walks in the door or gate in the pockets ( now the atms at the track) and dilutes this pool again and again with every race or payment.
In the end the lucky winners get only a small part of the pool and thus are really lucky that they came out ahead at the end of the day. Well at least till the next time.

Overall the advice is stay away from circuses and “financial advisers”
