Diversifying with Gold Isn’t Just Smart—It Can Also Be Fun

For the last several weeks, I’ve been talking about freedom—freedom from stress, freedom to celebrate successes, and financial freedom. This week, I have one more freedom I’d like to talk about: the freedom to have fun—specifically, the freedom to have fun while building your portfolio.

You’re allowed to have fun while building your portfolio.

Managing your wealth and building or maintaining a portfolio can often seem like a daunting, joyless task. To be sure, it’s a serious matter; on July 13, 2021, The Wall Street Journal reported that “the U.S. inflation rate reached a 13-year high recently, triggering a debate about whether the country is entering an inflationary period similar to [that of] the 1970s.”

But “serious” does not have to equal “joyless.” If, like me, you love to learn new things, then one of the most enjoyable parts of portfolio building can be diversification. You get to explore and learn about a world full of options when it comes to assets and asset classes and select the assets that best fit your goals and needs to create a unique, balanced portfolio.

Building your portfolio is even more fun with precious metals.

Things can get even more interesting once you begin to explore alternative assets like precious metals. Alternative assets are growing in popularity—so much so that MarketWatch reported on June 30, 2021, that HSBC Asset Management, part of one of the largest banks in the world, has “been recommending alternative asset classes,” with Chief Global Strategist Joe Little saying that “for markets…things [may] get a little trickier.”

With that increasing popularity to help give you peace of mind, you can relax in the knowledge that you’re making a positive decision for your portfolio. Gold is a time-tested store of wealth, with a history that dates back almost as far as civilization itself. So when it comes to selecting your precious metals products, you can allow yourself to enjoy the easy, stress-free process of working with your U.S. Money Reserve Account Executive.

Because you can choose from bullion and proof coins, certified coins, bars, and products from all over the world displaying many different designs, discovering the joys of precious metals ownership is just one phone call away. Every one of our products comes with a government-backed guarantee for weight, content, and purity, so all you have to do is have fun picking out products and building a portfolio from the options available.

U.S. Money Reserve can even help you build a unique portfolio tailored to your specific diversification goals.

No matter the size or scope of the portfolio you’re looking to build, U.S. Money Reserve is here to help with our team of dedicated Account Executives and a vast library of exclusive resources at your disposal. Even if you’re new to precious metals, there’s no reason to worry—your Account Executive will be with you every step of the way, making sure your precious metals experience is as easy and enjoyable as possible.

If you’re looking to add precious metals to a self-directed IRA, I encourage you to take advantage of our FREE Metals IQ Portfolio Builder™. With our Metals IQ Portfolio Builder, all you have to do is answer a few simple questions, and the tool does the rest! It’s an easy, fun way to receive a fully customizable precious metals portfolio, built just for you.

Too often, we ignore fun when talking about savings or protecting our personal wealth. But with the exciting world of precious metals and the fast, friendly assistance of your U.S. Money Reserve Account Executive, I believe that building and maintaining your portfolio can be a truly enjoyable experience. There’s joy that comes from knowing your decisions have been made from a place of informed confidence, and we strive to ensure that every step of the way is simple, secure, and as much fun as possible.

Guess Who Bought the Most Gold in 2020?

“There’s an old courthouse square saying that figures lie and liars figure. The Fed keeps changing the inflation numbers, yet their behavior tells us they believe gold is a hedge, and they keep buying it.”
— John Karow, Scottsdale Bullion & Coin Precious Metals Advisor

The same officials who keep telling you inflation is “transitory”: The Fed.

The United States Federal Reserve topped the list of central banks who increased their gold holdings during once of the worst economic crises the world has seen since the Great Depression.

It’s no secret gold is the time-tested inflation hedge, which begs the question…

…why is the Fed buying so much financial protection? Especially if inflation is transitory?

See the Figures that Don’t Lie…

Perhaps a look at America’s growing debt and stagnate revenue can shed some light on the situation.

You know what else has shot up since 2008? The Fed’s balance sheet.

Fed’s Words vs. Actions: Which Do You Trust?

How much longer are you going to listen to the Fed tell you inflation is temporary…

…while it fills its coffers with gold like the Pharaohs of ancient Egypt?

…while America’s debt balloons into the white, spotted elephant in the room?

…while you watch higher prices for your everyday essentials eat away at your hard-earned savings?

When you could be taking action to protect your wealth? Just like the Fed and every other country across the globe with the means to buy gold and silver.

Pension funds intend to increase gold holdings in coming year – survey

Proactive/Oliver Haill/7-21-2021

“Gold is an increasingly important asset for European pension funds, with new research showing many funds intend to increase their holdings of the yellow metal in the coming months.”

USAGOLD note: There was a time, not that long ago, when investing in gold would have been unheard of among pension fund managers. Now, 73% say “it offers increasingly attractive diversification benefits.” Pension funds globally, we will add, have considerable assets to hedge – over $50 trillion (2019), according to Statista.

Temporary or not, inflation is rattling restaurants and broader economy

Washington Post/David J. Lynch/7-20-2021

television flash announcement of inflation breaking news

“Maguire’s costs rose so much so fast that he has had to rewrite his menu prices twice since March. Whether additional increases will follow depends upon a complex interaction of food supplies, labor availability and a shape-shifting virus. ‘It’d be foolish for me to believe we’ve seen the worst of it,’ he said.”

USAGOLD note: Those of us old enough to recall the 1970s will recall the price tickets layered on top of each other on canned and bottled goods on the grocery shelves as prices rose. Inflation was occurring faster than the goods were moving out the door. Passing along the increases to consumers was the only option available.
