Modern Day Silver Heist in Canada

 
 
Modern Day Silver Heist in Canada
 
If anyone thought the demand for silver was down, they were sadly mistaken. Not only do many people treasure silver because of it's antimicrobial properties they value the fact that it is practical because of its use in electronics. There are many who also still see it as a sign of wealth and prosperity. All that being said, those with a large stash of silver need to protect it. The recent events in Montreal will tell us why we must protect silver with a powerful, safe and guards around the clock.

The internet is buzzing with the recent story coming out of Montreal, Canada. Wednesday, September 2, 2015, three hundred and fifty security cameras couldn't stop the Canadian heist of the century. 16 tonnes of silver being hauled in a Maersk shipping container was hooked up to a stolen, white 1997 Freightliner truck. From there, the silver and the truck seem to have disappeared into thin air. The cargo of precious silver metal was stolen from the Port of Montreal. Reports say the container itself was located on Saturday, in Repentigny, Quebec. The container was near Salomon-Juneau and St-Paul Street, in a residential area. However, the semi-trailer and the 16 tonnes of silver, worth roughly $10 million Canadian and $7.53 million US, have vanished.

This brazen heist has shocked the Canadian police to their core. Police had no idea that anything fishy was going on until sometime after the truck filled with valuable silver had left the port. These thieves managed to bypass all security and checkpoints at the port. A theft in broad daylight like this suggests that a plan had been laid in pace beforehand. It also goes to show that gold is not the only precious metal desired by crooks and criminals.

The truth is that those who own precious metals cannot underestimate silver. It must be locked up and properly protected at all times. Despite the fact that some companies are toting "Home Storage" IRA's to save people money, the truth is that beyond heavy IRA fines and penalties, it's just not safe.
Many people may think it's okay to brag they own silver and show it off. The truth is that it's not. Silver is seen as a valuable item and should be protected in a secure vault just like cash or gold. Silver is cash, and we've seen the price become more affordable lately. Since it's become so affordable, people are stocking up. It's not a good idea to keep the metal in your home for many reasons. If the Canadian heist taught anyone anything, let's hope it's that silver deserves the same respect as gold or cash.

This valuable commodity is beautiful, desirable, and may shoot up just like we saw gold do. There's no reason to take a risk. Proper storage and protection will guarantee the safety of your family's assets.

Most people choose an investment in silver to protect themselves against market risk. Don't turn around and put your wealth at risk by not storing it properly. Capital Gold Group, Inc. guarantees proper shipping and storage, so this doesn't happen to you.

Many Reasons Why Silver is an Excellent Long-Term Hold



Many Reasons Why Silver is An Excellent Long-Term Hold
 
When you mention the word silver to someone, you might see a little glimmer in their eye. When we think of silver, we most often think of a shiny, beautiful item. Silver has been around for a very long time and has endured longer than almost any other investible item because it is desirable, useful, and investors want to put their money behind items like silver.

Precious metals are a volatile market to invest in. The reason is quite clear. The world seems to be trying to leave precious metals in the dust, but it's never happened. Metals such as silver endure the test of time. Fiat currencies cannot break away from the value people place on items such as silver.
One might ask themselves, why are the markets trying to break away from precious metals? The answer is quite clear. It's the same reason that coins are no longer made of gold and silver. There's simply not enough to go around.

Why does an item have value? An item has value because people agree that it has value and is worth a certain amount. Silver is one of those items that has been assigned a significant value for thousands of years. Interestingly enough, recently silver has become greatly undervalued. This creates a great opportunity for investors to snap up physical silver for a long-term investment.

In the year 1477, silver was assessed a much greater value than it is today. The interesting thing to note is that we use silver today in many industrial applications. Silver was valued at almost $1,000 an ounce in today's dollars. It was an item that only the rich and royal had access too. Now that silver has become of use in industrial purposes and more affordable, the question is have we undervalued it too much?

Silver has an awfully long way to rise. The cost of mining silver is expensive. If prices do no rise, the mines will close. since silver has become the go to metal for photography equipment and electronics, this would cause some major problems. Silver is so useful that most people do not even realize that a lot of the products they use have silver in them.

The economy has been bad in the U.S. Many experts believe this is why the price of silver has stayed affordable. In a healthy economy, many experts predict that the price of silver will begin to reflect its usefulness. The truth is that consumers still aren't buying a lot. Once they start buying items like washing machines and electronics like computers, all made with silver, then the price will begin to rise to meet the demand.

Investors should not forget that silver is in high demand in the jewelry industry. Ever since the price of gold skyrocketed, more jewelry than ever is being made from silver. Most of the affordable "gold" jewelry found online today is silver plated. The uses for silver have risen steadily and the price of silver has not caught up yet.

There's no time like the present to invest in silver. It's affordable, useful, and has stood the test of time. Many believe the silver market will explode when consumer confidence and purchasing rises. Buying silver now and making it a long-term hold is a good idea for any investor. With more practical uses than ever, silver is quite possible the world's most useful metal.

Legendary Hidden Silver Dollars in the Ozarks




Have you ever heard of the legendary stash of silver dollars hidden in the Ozarks? The legend begins back when the early European settlers first came to North America. When Spanish explorers came up the from the Gulf of Mexico on the Mississippi River in search of precious metals, they found themselves in the upper reaches of the White River. There they found Indians mining silver.

The Spaniards bartered with the Indians and ended up with so much silver that they couldn’t manage to take it all back with them. So the Spaniards turned the silver into ingots by melting it and pouring it into musket barrels. They stashed the precious metal in natural caves around the area with intentions of returning to claim it. Unfortunately, they never did.

In the 1820’s the silver was found by a family who settled in the area by the name Yocum. They decided to slice the round silver ingots into coins and stamped them with their family name. These became the Yocum silver dollars and were supposedly worth more than even the silver dollars minted by the United States government at the time.

Some versions of the legend claim that the Yocham family worked the silver mines themselves and left when they heard rumors that there were promises of gold out in California. A descendant of the family claims that relatives in Kimberling City had the molds of the coins, but no actual proof of the coin has ever surfaced.

One scholar believes that the legendary coin is a fabrication of misinformation. Yocham is a Hungarian name and the story may have originated from the coin the YochamStalard.” This coin was minted in honor of a Hungarian bishop, Bishop Yocham, who became a saint. As stalard is a similar sounding word to dollar. It could be that a Hungarian coin was mistakenly thought to be a dollar and created the legend of the Yocum silver dollar.

Another unfortunate note that discredits this legend is that geological area of the Ozarks does not produce any consumable amounts of silver. What the area does have is “fool’s silver” which is a mineral called galena.

However, there is some remaining speculation that the legend could be true. A man named Mike Brittain, whose ancestors had made a homestead in the Ozarks, had copies of diary pages and a portion of a map. Someone made the map while doing research in the National Archives in Washington D.C. The piece of map indicated a sign, a cave, and a Spanish fort. Mike claimed to have found what remained of the fort’s foundation but not the cave. The last words of the excerpt were from a man who was trying to escape Indians and about the silver coins he found in the cave.

The story is rich and exciting whether the legend proves true or false. It is also interesting to note that United States silver dollars that were minted around the same time as the legend are worth a minimum of $200 these days. So if the legends were to be true, these legendary silver dollars would be worth a hefty sum.

Security of a Silver IRA


Security of a Silver IRA

Owning physical silver in an IRA is a very safe and secure investment. In fact, it is one of the safest ways to invest your retirement funds. Most investors prefer silver because it's more affordable than other precious metals like gold or platinum. Additionally, because it's more affordable, when silver does fluctuate in price, the fluctuations are much smaller.

Some people choose to own silver without purchasing an IRA. Some people can get into trouble with this because silver is more affordable, so it requires owning a lot more of it to have a significant investment in silver. For people who own physical silver that isn't in an IRA, they require an expensive fire and water proof safe to make sure theft or damage is prevented. This safe can only hold so much silver. With a Silver IRA, the investor can have a trusted and authorized depository hold their silver and other precious metals. The investor won't have to worry about how much silver they plan to buy in this scenario.

Silver is one of, if not the most popular precious metal in the eyes of investors. Many people have realized its potential for growth and prosperity. Once you have decided on investing in silver for you IRA, you will need to know if your methods of storing it are safe and legal. Most Home Storage IRA's are illegal, regardless of the recent dishonest advertising. Some investors may not be aware of a rule enforced by the IRS that states that you cannot physically hold any silver you obtained through an IRA. Because of this, investors must use a depository to have it safely held for them.

A depository is a reputable and authorized location, usually associated with the providers of your IRA plan, who will store away your silver investments in a secure location. This makes choosing to invest in silver for your IRA a smart decision. The safety of the investor’s assets is the number one concern people have when thinking about investing a large amount of money into their IRA via silver.

In most cases, you will not have to worry about finding a depository. The Silver IRA provider usually handles this step for you. If this is not the case, there are many good places that can store a variety of precious metals for you in vaults. Simply check with your provider to make sure you can have your IRA investments stored there.

Silver IRA's provide investors with the stability and security they would expect to receive from owning a physical commodity with its own intrinsic value. Unlike stocks, bonds, and fiat currency, physical silver is something you can hold in your hand that has value. That being said, it is much safer to have your silver stored in protective vaults away from your home. This will help you avoid the risk of theft or misplacement. Storing your precious metals in a licensed, secured depository, whether your silver is in an IRA or not, is just a good idea. Depositories have armed guards on hand and the latest security systems. Most investors would never be able to afford this kind of security for their own silver.

If you are on the fence about whether to store your silver yourself or use a secure depository and IRA, weigh the pros and cons of each situation. Storing your silver in your home is good because you have complete control over where your silver is. It will be in your true physical possession, but a con would be the risk of theft or misplacement.

The best benefit of a Silver IRA is that it is a secure way to store your investments. When you have invested in silver through an IRA, you have something tangible. The value of your silver can increase with inflation and as the value of the dollar goes down. It can also show diversity in your portfolio.

Since having your silver stored in a secure IRA is fairly easy to accomplish, you can get started buying silver right away. You will experience the benefits of professional depository services. Professional depository services provide the investor with peace of mind knowing their silver investment is in good hands. As long as your silver is invested in your IRA, it will remain safe and readily available for the security of your financial future as well.

Comstock Silver Lode - Richest U.S. Silver Deposit





Tale of the Comstock Silver Lode

This story takes place in the hot Nevada desert, in the year 1857, within the setting of a high, vacant and lonely mountain peak. Inside of the vast Virginia Range, a prospector by the name of Henry Comstock threw in his bid to search for an elusive large deposit of silver left by two recently deceased prospector brothers. It is called the “Comstock Lode” and whoever eventually got their hands on it, would be holding a first-class ticket, straight to the good life.

The two brothers were Hosea and Evan Grosh, and while there isn’t a whole lot of information regarding their deaths, timing couldn’t have been worse. The two of them were standing on the edge of a fortune in silver, which was patiently waiting to be found.

Never Reaching His Fort Knox

Comstock felt like this was his time to finally land the big one and the prospects around him no doubt felt like they were a shoe-in to become the Fort Knox of silver. He went into it with a head full of inspiration, continuously digging but after awhile the prospector just simply came up short, without much to show for any of it. His demise would come later on, dying penniless in the state of Oregon.

Irony will take it from here because we find out later that Henry Comstock was a lot closer to the silver lode than what he ultimately thought before he packed it in and packed-up for Oregon. The Comstock Silver Lode was no myth and what these unfortunate prospectors missed-out on is still considered a genuinely peculiar, sad tale. It is also one which remains a truly great display of a prospector’s grit and spirit. What the mining industry discovered was one the richest and greatest silver lode discoveries in the entire illustrious history of mining, which, of course, is a major triumph all in itself.

Positive Changes in the Mining Industry Come to Fruition

Because of the sudden impact of the Comstock Lode, news had flown quickly informing Americans everywhere that the prospectors behind such an incredible mining find were instantly rich. Anybody who had any claim staked in the silver lode was an immediate success story and deserved all of the newsworthiness that they had been receiving.

What this landmark achievement helped create was the very beginning of the advancements in mining technology, which has been the foreground of creating undeniably great leaps forward. During this prosperous time, well-utilized and famed processes such as the “Washoe Process” and “square-set timbering” were created. These were honest ground-breakers in the mining industry and we still heavily rely on these type of techniques and methods in this modern-era in which we live.

Back-in-the-day, all there was to rely on as far as proven, functional process was tunneling underground. This was so that we can make contact with the metal found below the surface but as time progressed, this practice became admittedly dangerous.

From Rough Beginnings to Mining History

We soon evolved and because of these incredible mining processes, there aren't many places where precious metals are out of our reach. The Comstock Lode may have begun on a melancholy note but as time soon proved, we always forge ahead and make the very best of all the great resources around us, everywhere.

You can easily spend a small amount of money and have a decent quantity of silver added to your portfolio. It is a great investment opportunity as well, with many uses for it in the industry. This makes choosing to invest in silver quite lucrative.

Creating a Silver IRA is a very smart move to make. When you invest in silver and add these physical metals to your IRA, it gives you something tangible and stable to hold onto. What this means is that silver is far more secure than paper money. With paper money, you may experience bouts of hyperinflation during an economic collapse. 

During this time, paper money would lose its value as the cost of living soars. With a Silver IRA, you will feel more at ease knowing your finances have been backed up by something that it everlasting. Your silver will not lose its value.

Step 3:
Now you can choose the type of silver bullion you would like to purchase with your Self-Directed IRA. The IRS will allow you to obtain American Eagle, Canadian Maple Leaf, and Australian Philharmonic coins.

American Silver Eagle


The U.S. Mint announced on Monday that it has 3 million ounces of the very popular American Eagle 2015 silver bullion coins. It plans to sell them on an allocated basis throughout the week after running out of the coins about three weeks prior.

Sales stopped on July 7th after a huge spike in sales which led to a sellout of their inventory. Just this month alone the U.S. Mint has sold about 2.7 million ounces of the popular American Eagle coin. Investors aren’t wasting any time jumping at the opportunity to get their hands on these precious metals.

This is the second time within the past nine months that the Mint has sold out because of the increasing demand for silver coins. In the past, the mint has been forced to ration coins due to the increasingly higher demand.

With silver being the most affordable precious metal, investors and collectors can get more metal for their money. The coin sales information for last month shows that they are at their highest point since January.

The popularity of the American Eagle silver coins is due primarily to how recognizable it is all over the world. It is the most well-known and accepted form of silver bullion on the market today. American Eagle silver coins make affordable investments, beautiful collector’s coins, or even a great gift or award. It is also good to know that these silver coins are the only ones allowed in an IRA.

These silver coins have been around since 1986, being minted by the United States as one-dollar silver coins named “Silver Eagles”. Each coin contains a minimum amount of 1 troy ounce of 99.9 percent pure silver. Because of their low price and beauty, there have been over 130 million of the coins sold since their debut.

The Silver Eagles get their design from the 1916 half dollar “Walking Liberty” by Adolph A. Weinman. It is widely considered to be the most beautiful coin ever minted by the U.S. American Eagle silver coins are also very easy to buy and sell at almost any precious metals, coin, or brokerage company. Prices are based on the market price for silver, plus a premium that will cover the cost of distribution and minting.

According to the U.S. Mint, silver coin sales continue to be on the rise. In previous months, coin sales spiked to 4.84 million ounces. It is starting to seem as if more investors now see the true value of investing in silver.

Silver’s potential is very substantial. All of its uses in the industry alone make it a great investment. When you take into account the affordability and ease of buying and selling, the decision of whether or not to invest becomes clear.

Now that the U.S. Mint has the silver coins back in stock, buyers will have to be patient knowing that they are only selling them on an allocated basis. This is to ensure they do not sell out again quickly before they can completely restock their inventory. With these measures into place, there should soon be plenty of silver bullion coins to go around once more.

To order your American Silver Eagles, contact Capital Gold Group at 1(800)510-9594 or visit startwithgold.com or visit behance.net/CapitalGoldGroup.

Silver Prices - Silver Demand



Despite the fall in silver prices in the recent past, market analysts have maintained that there is a great potential for the prices of this precious metal. This comes after one study showed that the pricing of silver was relatively low when compared to gold internationally. On the other hand, it is easier to buy from the silver market than the gold current global market. With the goldsilver ratio averaging at 73 within the first half of 2015 as compared to the normal average of 58, the silver market is not doing badly at all. Furthermore, the demand for silver jewelry has remained high. Consumer silver jewelry demand in the United States of America increased by 11% in the month of May. Imports from Thailand and China recorded an increase of 18.5% and 14% respectively within the previous five months of the year.

One of the leading precious metals consultancy firms projected that the demand for silver is likely to increase by 5% within 2015. Besides the use of the precious metal in making jewelry, its demand has continued to increase within the industrial sector. The use of silver in the renewable energy sector is likely to increase by 8% up to 65 million ounces because of its great role in the manufacturing of solar panels. For instance, the United States of America increased its solar panel installation up to 75% within the first quarter of 2015, thereby creating a high demand for this precious metal.

Market analysts have alleged that the silver demand would maintain and increase, especially as we look forward to a deficit of about 57.7 ounces of the precious metal in the next three consecutive years. One of the probable causes of the prices difference between these two metals is investor demand. Although the demand for gold was high at the start of the year, there has been increased outflow in the month of June. From the observations made, there was a great increase in the global ETF holdings for the silver metal by over 4.7 million ounces as of 24 July. This means that there is a very high likelihood for many investors to develop a positive and long-term view about the prices of silver in the world market.

Although the start was relatively slow, analysts have observed a great improvement in the silver bullion demand. As the month of June was drawing to the end, some companies decided to sell out silver coins following a drop of the price below $15 per ounce. This was something that happened without their knowledge. However, most companies resumed selling their silver bullion coins based on allocation to avoid the losses this week. Despite the fact that there was a drop in global coins sale by about 6% when compared with their price last year at such a time, the sales have maintained their position as the fifth-highest record in the history of global sales. Looking at this trend you can easily make up your mind on whether to invest in silver in the current market or not.

How To Invest In Silver Stocks


Are you looking for a way to maximize your current earnings and best reinforce your financial standing? Investing in the basics like stocks, bonds, property and the like should certainly make up a good portion of your investment portfolio. However, if that’s all that you’ve got a stake in, then you’re missing out on a very promising opportunity. The precious metals market is ripe for the investor who is savvy enough to put money in while the prices are getting lower and cost dollar averaging down. All you need to do is have the right idea of when and how to invest in silver. 
From its inception, the precious metals market has been on the climb, and it only continues to rise, despite the occasional slump. In the last ten years alone, the price of silver has doubled, but has even reached a peak of over five times the price at which it started the decade. Though the short-term fluctuations can cause some investors a bit of reluctance, the long-term stability and growth is cause for peace of mind and even confidence when investing in silver. In other words, silver is not going anywhere and is here to stay. 
Though investing in precious metals, like silver, may seem like an absolute no-brainer, a novice or even fairly experienced investor could still have many questions. The assistance of professionals, like those at Capital Gold Group, can be of the utmost importance. For instance, the distinction of whether to invest in actual, tangible silver bullion or coins, as opposed to investing in silver stock with any one of the many silver exchange-traded funds (ETF's), is something that you may be confused or conflicted about. Capital Gold Group has plenty of educational material on the advantages of purchasing physical silver that can help you along the way.
 The primary difference between the two kinds of precious metals investments are the respective possession or lack thereof actual, physical silver. Though Capital Gold Group strongly urges the possession of physical metals, an investment in silver stock, which is to say a silver ETF, is typically financially similar, but does not require an investor to store or house any precious metals him or herself. This is often seen as a pragmatic advantage, but, again, does not amount to any significant difference in the potential return on an investment in silver. Strong opinions in the metals industry suggest that you want to invest in physical silver as it has no counter party risk, and paper can not be redeemed for silver through an ETF or stock certificate. This is why investing in physical silver has less counter party risk than say investing in paper silver.
 When you’re ready to make the financially beneficial step into the precious metals market, and you’re looking to invest in silver, then you’re going to want to call on the professional expertise of a reputable precious metals dealer like Capital Gold Group, an accredited business with the BBB with an A+ rating. Our experienced precious metals experts will help you make the most lucrative and secure silver purchases into the physical commodity to best suit your personal goals and existing investment portfolio. There is no reason to face the risks of the often-rocky market on your own, when you can call on the assistance of professionals who are here to offer you their expert insight.

Best Silver IRA


Are you looking to diversify and fortify your individual retirement account (IRA), but you’re not quite sure what exactly the best way to do that might be? If you want to make the most of your current retirement fund and set yourself up for the most lucrative and financially comfortable future, then you’re going to want to make sure that you don’t neglect the precious metals market. Buying precious metals as a means of broadening and securing your retirement plan is a phenomenal idea, especially when you’re looking to get into silver bullion or coins!

When planning for your retirement, there is a great deal of factors that must be considered before taking any irreversible action. The most vitally important issue at stake is accurately and honestly calculating the figure that you anticipate needing on an annual basis to maintain your desired quality of life throughout your retirement. All too often, people planning for retirement will overestimate the amount of money they need, which causes alarm bells to sounds over the plausibility of ever amassing that kind of fund. Or they will underestimate the money needed, and that will cause even more dire financial issues once a retiree reaches the end of their retirement fund. Neither option is desirable and so both should be avoided by proper and thoughtful retirement planning.

A truly incredible opportunity is laying patiently in plain sight, waiting for a savvy investor to capitalize on what will surely reinforce and stabilize any individual retirement account. The precious metals market has been and continues to be on a steady climb, with the price of silver more than doubling in the last ten years. That steady and reliable rate of long-term growth is projected to continue well into the future, which means that investing in a Silver IRA is going to be a pivotal and highly financially advantageous move for an investor planning for retirement.

If you’re unsure or would feel more comfortable with additional assistance in the process of securing your own Silver IRA, you are not alone.

Why Silver is the Best Investment Vehicle



Are you looking for an innovative, yet secure way to diversify your investment portfolio? Want to begin putting your savings to use, rather than watching it be effectively eaten away by the ever-rising tide of inflation? Investing in silver bullion is a phenomenal way to both broaden and fortify your financial standing, so that you can weather the unpredictability of our economic environment. With the value of silver having doubled in just the last decade, and predicted to continue in its rise, you can rest assured that the best silver to buy is any silver bars or silver bullion.

Silver and other precious metals are among the most promising and unwavering assets you can invest in. With the price of both gold and silver nearly doubling in the past ten years alone and while there are short-term fluctuations, that figure is steadily on the rise. There is very promising speculation that precious metals will continue to remain a steadfast investment long into the foreseeable future because it's stood the test of time for thousands of years. When you want to really solidify and strengthen your investment portfolio, you certainly want to buy silver.

By merely continuing to deposit your earnings into a savings account, you aren’t doing much to strengthen your financial future. Most savings accounts carry very little earning potential. With the economy in a constant state of flux and the inflation rate always rising higher, it can feel like there is no way to achieve financial security and a store of wealth. Fortunately, this is not entirely the case. While there is much turbulence in the economic climate at present, there are financial anchors to which you can tie your wealth and secure it through whatever may come. Silver is one of these crucial strongholds.

Silver Prices Today



Today, silver prices are hovering around $15 per ounce. Silver prices are in a constant state of discovery, and they are watched by banks, financial institutions, dealers, and investors, as a key component of the economy at large. Since the beginning of the 21st century, silver prices have been increasing, and this has caught the attention of many investors. People look to precious metals such as silver when inflation occurs, and currency devaluation runs rampant, which is currently happening with U.S. dollars and other fiat currencies.

In the event of an economic collapse, precious metals like silver and gold will become one of the few (if not the only) means of purchasing goods and services. As fiat currencies plummet in value due to hyperinflation, silver will retain and increase its value. However, it is important to buy silver now, before the price spikes, otherwise you may find yourself hard out of luck when the economy crashes and silver prices go through the roof.

In order to receive the largest return on your investment possible, it’s important to buy low, and right now silver prices are relatively low. In fact, many experts believe silver prices today are conspicuously low, and they predict that prices will rise dramatically in the next few years. 

The price of silver is always changing, and it never remains the same for very long. There are many factors that affect silver price fluctuations, and these include inflation fears, asset allocations, currency volatility, supply and demand, and even geopolitical strife. The key to understanding a silver investment is in realizing that, although silver prices can be volatile, silver is meant for long-term investments. In the long-term, the trend for silver’s price is nothing but upwards. Although short term price fluctuations may scare away more novice investors, veterans understand that over a long enough period of time, the price of silver will certainly rise again. This rise in the price of silver could lead to huge returns on your investment if you play your cards right.

Lately, silver prices have been trending a little lower, which leads many people to believe that now is the perfect time to buy. Since 2011, silver prices have been trending slightly lower after nearly reaching the $50 per ounce mark. This ought not to frighten prospective investors, because it is expected that the price will return to and exceed past its former heights in due time.

Investing in Silver or Gold for an Ever Changing Economy

Investing in gold and silver coins now can easily be one of the smartest decisions you can make. It would be especially wise if you would like to be prepared in case of hyperinflation. Hyperinflation can blend the lines between every thread of society. During a time like this, food prices would go through the roof, and the chances for you and your family to be able to afford food would be slim to none.

The good news is, investing in silver and gold before an event such as this happens, will allow you to have a fighting chance with gold and silver. They act as a definite currency to protect your power and right to purchase. There is no need for you to have any previous investing experience when it comes to obtaining gold and silver. Anyone can invest without any prior knowledge. Gold and silver, during times of crisis, would be the only form of real money you can have that will allow you to continue with transactions.

Rising food costs are normally one of the first signs of inflation. The price of food can increase quickly with little to no warning. The western half of the world is not the only economy that is currently taking a blow. Asia has also been enduring some significant hardships. The economies of Malaysia and Indonesia are some of their largest farm producers. Most of the farmlands there have changed over to factories and construction sites for housing projects to keep up with their ever growing population and food demand.

Preparing by investing in gold and silver will allow you to have an advantage in readiness. Trying to obtain either gold or silver after the economy has already collapsed will be nearly impossible. Everyone will want to hold on to every ounce of the precious metals they have. It is best to invest now while it is still readily available to the general public for anyone who would like to pursue it.
Investing in gold now is also a good idea because the price of it has virtually no limit. It can continue to increase in value dramatically as time goes on. The more scarce gold or silver becomes, the more it is worth. If you invest your money into gold now, as the economy falls the price of gold will skyrocket. That is why it is much better to invest now versus later.

People living on the Eastern half of the globe are already well aware of the value of investing in gold and silver. They know that it is a means of protection against the rising food costs and other basic necessities that are coming about from this global, economic crisis. The citizens there have been purchasing precious metals at every chance they can get, whenever there is a drop in the prices.
An investment in either gold or silver is something that should be considered given the current economic situation. Both precious metals are extremely valuable and will continue to increase in value over time. Investing in either one will give you a real currency to deal with during a state of financial crisis, when all other forms of money will be worthless.

The Parthenon - Silver Coins - Silver News



  Capital Gold Group, Inc. is reporting that in silver news, researchers are saying that millions of silver coins were possibly stored in Parthenon, a temple for Athena. The research team believes these silver coins were in the attic. Capital Gold Group, Inc. learned that the researchers learned this information after reconstructing the attic's size. Ancient records pointed researchers in the direction of Parthenon based on various data such as the size of potential silver reserves, archaeological work, and other information.

  Capital Gold Group, Inc. discovered that researchers believe Athens cash reserves were made of millions of silver coins. The silver coin reserves probably existed around 434 B.C. The Parthenon's attic measured 62 feet by 164 feet. This size would have been large enough to hold the silver coins and researchers have reported that it seems like a likely place.

  The documents that Capital Gold Group, Inc. have studied suggest that Athens didn't have many gold coins. Due to the fact that silver mines were local and abundant, the people of Athens would have been used to plentiful silver coins. Athens was even referred to as a "fountain of silver" by some.

   Capital Gold Group, Inc. reports that there are no detailed records of where silver coins were stored and there are also no records of what the Parthenon's attic was used for. However, because of the amount of weight that that many silver coins would have, the Parthenon's attic would have been sufficient to spread out the weight and the floor would still remain intact.

  While Capital Gold Group, Inc. cannot say for sure that this conclusion is accurate, it's a very interesting report. It's very likely that silver coins were held in several locations. Due to the location of the Parthenon and it's size, it's a very likely candidate. Capital Gold Group, Inc. encourages research of this kind. Understanding how money has been used in the past can help us prepare for the future.
