For those who are interested in Gold and Silver, either as a form of keepsake (for future generation) or as a form of personal investment (to enjoy capital gains or to make your money work harder), you are no longer limited to getting access to them ?through Local Bank (which I believe there?s only one in Singapore) and Pawn Shops. Yeah!
What I Know About Buying Gold/Silver From Local Bank & Pawn Shop
When my mum was still around many years back, she was quite fond of buying gold pieces from Pawn Shop and little Gold Bar from those Gold Jewelry Stores to keep at home. She saw it as a form of investment and the ability to make some money when Gold Price increases. She also saw it as a form of token that she can use to give to her future daughter in law.
Since then I am aware that you can actually have such practice to make some money or have some ?emergency? cash. After I grow up and got into the Financial Planning Industry, Gold and Silver become one of the many different types of investment tools and a discussion topic for myself and my clients on how and where to invest our money.
During the course of exploring into this area, I got to know that there?s not much options in Singapore. Most forms of investing into Gold and Silver came in the form of Unit Trust and even the local bank that offers a Gold/Silver account does not give you access to actual metal but rather certificates. On top of that, there?s charges involved in maintaining those accounts.
Likewise for buying actual pieces from Pawn Shop & Jewelry Stores, these places would usually mark up the base prices that reward them rather than the customers unless you are able to buy in bulks (to offset the markups). If you are able to buy in bulk, you have to think of where to keep them secured!
Why I Like The Internet & The Social Media For Getting Access To Gold And Silver
Thanks to friends sharing with friends on those Social Media Sites, I came to know about buying Gold and Silver Bullion Coins online which means you are able to own actual pieces, in small quantities and at a lower cost as compared to those Pawn Shops & Jewelry Stores.
And for those who are serious investors, you can even have access to opening an overseas account that gives you direct access to buying, storing and selling physical gold and silver.
If you are interested in exploring alternate options to getting access to Gold and Silver from the local aspects, you may wish to join the growing community of buying bullion coins online or check out those online sites that give you access to the professional bullion markets. For a start, you may wish to search for ?gold bullion? or those related keyword phrases on your favorite search engine to bring out a good list of sites.
