So you’re thinking about investing in precious metals, the chances are you’ll be planning to buy gold primarily. Gold is a sound choice but it may not be the only option to protect your nestegg. The global financial climate today is uncertain, so it might be a good idea to start thinking about your best course of action to ensure that however bad life becomes you have the best chance for a bright future.

The stock market is often the first place people go when they’ve decided to make an investment but it’s nowhere near as reliable over the long run as precious metals can be. The top corporates in any period of time won’t in all liklihood the same number one in fifty years, but your pile of gold and silver will always be sure to retain the purchasing power of your investment funds.

So what is the best choice, to buy – Silver, Gold, or both?

Gold has traditionally been the primary wealth protector through time, but currently silver is heavily undervalued against gold when compared to the traditional Gold / silver ratio, currently at approximately 50:1 and traditionally nearer 12 or 15:1.

There is also an interesting viral attempt to drive the Silver price higher under the banner of ” Crash JP Morgan – buy Silver ” currently which if it succeeds in breaking the bank’s giant short positions in the Silver market would more or less guarantee a moonshot for the price of the metal.

All things considered buying some Silver now will very likely be a very wise decision.
