Acquiring physical gold, silver and other precious metals has never been easier than it is today. In fact, all you have to do to begin investing in these key precious metals is pick up the phone.

The question may be: Why haven’t you done so already?

The Case For Metals To Hedge Currency Weakness

We believe there is a very strong case for physical precious metals ownership in the modern day economic and geopolitical climate. We further believe that given the history of fiat currencies, one would be foolish not to have a significant allocation in asset classes that may potentially provide a degree of protection from a paper currency collapse.

If you think you cannot afford to begin buying and holding physical gold or silver, think again.

You can begin acquiring and holding these key precious metals today on the most limited of budgets.

All it takes is a little planning and you can be on your way to building a significant physical precious metals portfolio that may potentially increase in value while possibly providing a meaningful hedge against a number of economic and geopolitical issues.

Here are three sources of funds that most people would never think to consider for the purchase of precious metals. These funds could be used to buy pizza and beer, go on a vacation, buy a new wardrobe, or to acquire physical precious metals and potentially help secure your financial future. The choice is yours.

1. Tax Refunds

Tax refunds are a common windfall for many households. Unfortunately, these funds are all too often blown in the form of various splurges such as vacations, new cars and other non-necessities. By some estimates, the average tax refund is over $3000. At current price levels, that refund could buy you almost 2.5 ounces of gold or over 170 ounces of silver.

2. Overtime

Another simple and easy way to begin budgeting some investment capital for physical precious metals is through overtime. If you were to work a few extra hours per week at a time-and-a-half, it can really add up. An extra $1000 per month from overtime earnings could buy you almost 10 ounces of gold over the course of a year at current prices and over 680 ounces of silver at current prices.

3. Pay Yourself First

Another simple yet powerful way to begin building a physical precious metals portfolio is to just pay yourself first. For example, if you dedicate the first two percent of your paycheck to buying physical gold and silver, you will be acquiring more of these metals on a regular basis. The best part is: You won’t even miss the two percent. This habit can eventually lead to a significant portfolio of physical precious metals, and if your financial situation warrants you can always hike your allocation amount from two percent to three, five, 10 percent or even more.

As you can see, there are numerous ways to find the necessary funds to begin building a precious metals portfolio today. You simply have to decide to do it and then put your plan into action.
