So you’re thinking about investing in silver or gold, it’s quite likely you’ll be planning to buy gold primarily. Gold is a good bet but it may not be the best option on it’s own to defend your hard earned savings. The financial outlook at the moment is looking grim, so you might be well advised to consider your best course of action to ensure that however bad it gets you have the best chance for a bright future.

A stockbroker is most usually the first destination people head for when they’re ready to make an investment but it’s nowhere near as reliable over longer periods as silver and especially gold are. The leading corporates today won’t in all liklihood the number one in fifty years, but your pile of silver will be sure to retain the purchasing power of your investment funds.

So which is the best option, to buy – Silver, Gold, or both?

Gold has always been the primary wealth preserver throughout the ages, but currently silver is heavily underpriced against gold when compared against the traditional Gold / silver ratio, currently at nearly 50:1 and traditionally nearer 12 or 15:1.

There is also an interesting internet attempt to raise the Silver price higher under the war-cry of ” Buy Silver – Crash JP Morgan ” at the moment which if it succeeds in removing the bank’s huge naked short positions in the Silver market would more or less guarantee a moonshot for the price of the metal.

All things considered piling up Silver now might turn out to be a very wise decision.
