Convert a 401k into a Gold and Silver IRA

Is a Gold and Silver IRA Right for Me?

Gold is essential to a well diversified portfolio. Gold brings security and peace of mind, especially when fiat currencies are threatened by financial crises, stock market crashes, and inflation.

All retirement accounts are qualified to roll or transfer into a Gold and Silver IRA: Traditional, Roth, SEP, Simple, and Beneficiary/Inherited IRA. Other accounts are eligible for a rollover including, but not limited to a 401(k), 403(b), 457(b) Deferred Compensation Plan, Pension Plan, and Thrift Savings Plan. No matter what asset you have in these accounts such as: stocks, bonds, annuities, or cash, your Landmark Capital representative can assist you in getting those funds transferred over to your Gold IRA plan.

The Benefits of a Gold and Silver IRA

A hedge against stock market volatility: Diversifying your portfolio with precious metals keeps your money out of the hands of Wall Street and Washington and puts it into your hands. Prior to 2007 investors that diversified their IRA into gold and silver plans experienced an increase of 72% compared to the average 40% drop in stocks.

Protects against the devaluation of the dollar: Over time the dollar has consistently lost purchasing power due to inflation and the government’s Quantitative Easing (QE) programs. Inflation erodes the purchasing power of the U.S. dollar meaning the consumer goods we buy on a day-to-day basis, such as food, clothing, and gasoline, require more dollars each year.  Gold, on the other hand, continues to retain its significant purchasing power in the marketplace, making it a crucial investment choice.  

Protects against possible government retirement account Bail In

This might be the most important reason to own and hold physical gold and silver in your retirement. The government is looking to seize your retirement accounts by doing what is called a Bail In. Already occurring in 14 other countries since 2008, many believe these problems could cripple retirement plans and other savings through government seizure. Our clients believe the best way to protect their wealth from this threat is to own physical precious metals in their retirement accounts.

What to do?: Navigating through your retirement decisions can be tricky and frankly, scary. With the stock market teetering on another collapse, inflation rising, and bail-ins on the horizon, it’s a now-or-never season for securing your future. We don’t mean to jump on the doomsday train, but we don’t want you floundering in sub-par retirement when you could be enjoying the fruits of labor.  

Allow us at Landmark Capital to simply the process for you. Our knowledgeable and experienced staff will answer your questions and help you decide if transferring your retirement accounts to a Gold and Silver IRA is the right step for you.
