The sad thing about modern-day saving is many people still view it with older glasses. These days, the consumer is the most powerful entity in any economy.
Savers are now something that banks and financial institutions yearn to win over. They know that savers now have their own tools they can use. People are a lot more economically savvy these days. Even millennials have lived through a recession, so even the younger generation will be switched on in this regard.
Banks are not safe, safes are safe. You should buy your own home safe where you can store all of your most precious wealth. Money is something that withers away, quite literally. Most fiat currency is still printed in a mixture of cotton and synthetics. So storing actual money at home is not ideal, but other more solid investments do and should belong with you at all times.
Giddy up!
Of all the precious metals you should be investing in, silver is the most mouth-watering option. Gold is no way near its peak, but it’s gotten up off the floor and is heading slowly towards $2,000 per ounce. This is an investment that might be a little too high for you. Per ounce, silver is still well below $20. This is an amazing time to invest in silver bars and stack them high in your own home. The great thing is when gold rises so does silver. It’s a natural alternative and thus, whenever gold rises in the markets, silver gets dragged up inherently. Silver can become damaged over time if you don’t take care of it properly so just educate yourself on how to do this. As many prominent investors are now saying, ‘heigh-ho silver, away!’.
Your financial future is precious
As you may well know, fiat currencies have lost well over 90% of their value since they were created. Some day the US dollar has lost around 98% of its value despite being the world’s reserve currency. This means that sooner or later most major fiat currencies will crash. This may not happen in 5 years, or even 10 years. However, it will eventually occur. This is why you need to invest in precious materials. Some would say you should only invest in precious metals like silver, gold, palladium, and platinum. But, it’s better to invest in whatever you can that is considered ‘precious’. This means precious stones like diamonds, rubies, and emeralds. By holding such precious materials, your credit score will also make a big boost in the eyes of financial institutions should you need to borrow money.
Where and how?
So how do you store such incredibly valuable things? In a safe of course. You need to consider buying a modern safe. Get the help of a specialist locksmith service that makes and fits electronic locks into personal safes. You set your own password and it will protect your items inside. It’s much better than a traditional dial open lock.
Don’t rely on banks these days, you need to be the master of your own wealth. Invest in precious materials of all kinds but most of all, stack up on silver bars in your own home safe.
