Precious Metals Retirement Fund
When it comes to investing in precious metals, gold is one of the best choices you can make. Why? Security!
While gold is subject to market vale fluctuations, its value has remained stable. For Example, according to the World Gold Council, the price of gold between 1900 and 2006 deviated less than 5% (when adjusted for today’s prices.) When you take into account a century’s worth of politics, market shifts, and overall changes in society, that stability becomes even more apparent.
All the necessary forms to get started!

Precious Metals in your IRA:
For several years only gold and silver U.S. American Eagle coins were allowed as IRA investments. Since 1998, the new platinum U.S. American Eagle coin has also been allowed, as well as gold, silver, platinum and palladium bullion which meet certain standards.
At Secure Metals Exchange, we have made it easier than ever to open a precious metals IRA account through our established working relations with GoldStar Trust Company and Sterling Trust Company.
There are three simple steps:
» Establish the account
» Fund the account with regular contributions, transfers or rollovers
» Give Secure Metals Exchange investment instructions
Your metal will be stored at an internationally recognized precious metals depository. Your Custodian will provide you with a semiannual account hardcopy statement, showing all activity in your account and the fair market value of your investments as well as providing you with 24/7 online access to your account.
When it is time to take distributions from your IRA, you may choose to convert your precious metals investments to cash through your dealer, or take a distribution of the actual coins or bullion. This flexibility means you can wait for optimum market conditions before you sell.
With GoldStar or Sterling Trust as your custodian they are only concerned with making the investments you direct, protecting your assets while they are in the IRA, and performing all the duties of an IRA custodian. They do not offer or sell any investments, nor are they affiliated with any precious metals dealer. They do not give tax or legal advice. They do not benefit financially from your investment choices.
