November 20, 2009 – Gold investment advice is about as available as trouble – it’s anywhere you look. The gold spot price has risen dramatically in the last few years and its recent surges have prompted many gold “experts” to come forward. Whether they want you to buy gold, sell gold, mine gold, or refine gold, many of these “know-it-alls” who are relatively new to the gold market are ready to instruct you. If you are looking for gold investment advice, it is important to seek a reputable source before you begin besting your funds in the gold market.

When you begin searching for gold investment advice, visit the better business Bureau at www.BBB.org and conduct a background check on any company who offers their services. Oftentimes, savvy marketers who only sell one product try to miraculously “match” clients with their offering, so work with a gold exchange that offers information on a wide variety of gold products. The Certified Gold Exchange offers free, customized mail-out reports and live quotes on the most widely traded precious metal products, you can call them directly or register online. As is often the case, the best advice is the simplest advice. If you plan to hold your gold short-term and you are strictly focusing on profit, gold bullion is probably preferable.

Long-term investors also seek growth, but many long-term investors also seek protection from the weakening dollar and our inept government’s seemingly malicious monetary policies. In this case, historic US coins like the Lady Liberty series and the $20 Saint Gaudens may be a better investment. These coins have the potential to gain more value than bullion, and they are private investments.
