#1 Reason To Start A Silver Investment

Written on October 6, 2008. Written by The Silver Investment Blog.

A silver investment starts with as little as $12.50 and a quick search to find the local silver dealers, otherwise known as coin shops. As of this writing, the silver price in the U.S. is $11.38 for a troy ounce, and if you are lucky enough to find a silver dealer who is not currently gouging customers, a one-ounce silver coin, or round, can be yours for about a buck over the spot price.

But that isn’t the reason to start a silver investment. There are other types of investments where you can make small purchases, such as DRP stock investments that charge no fees and no commissions.

With a stock, you end up with a piece of paper, or a transaction on a computer with a value based on the U.S. dollar. With silver, you get an actual piece of metal!

Silver is real. Silver is something you buy and then take home, or to a safety deposit box, or to a self-storage unit, or to a vault. In the real world, silver has value beyond being traded as money. It is primarily used in industry, from electronics to medicine, and those industries are having a difficult time getting enough of the metal that conducts electricity better than anything else that exists.

The feeling of having your silver investment in your own hands is a powerful sensation. It is tangible, and not some abstract number listed on your computer screen or printed on a certificate. It has weight, brilliantly reflects sunlight, rings when you flip it in the air, and feels smooth and cold to the touch.

Find the silver dealers near you today and give them a call. See if they have any coins or “rounds” in stock and make the first purchase for your silver investment. Having an ounce of silver where you can see it reminds you of the importance of investing, and shows you how real those investing efforts are.
