The signs point to a worrisome conclusion – a recession that could affect retirement savers is likely coming and some say we are already there. After last year’s midterm elections, it’s still unclear how a divided Congress will continue to affect the economy during 2023.

Experts are sounding the alarm...

Here are some effects of the 2008 recession:

The stock market took a nosedive, wiping out $80 billion in assets.

Unemployment rate soared, peaking at 10%.

Americans lost $9.8 trillion in wealth as home values plummeted and retirement accounts vaporized.

Imagine going back to work at the age of 70 because a recession shrunk your retirement account.

Financial Times survey reveals that 68% of economists believe there will be a recession

Forbes declares, “A recession is coming.”

Deutsche Bank's chief U.S. economist Matthew Luzzetti says, “We now expect an earlier and somewhat more severe recession.”

Jeremy Schwartz, Swiss Bank’s director of U.S. economics, reveals that the U.S. economy is on “the edge of a recession.”

But a recession shouldn’t catch you unaware.

If you prepare yourself, you can cushion your accounts against whatever economic results come from the divided goals and intentions of Congress, and maybe even position yourself to grow your wealth while others suffer the pain of retirement losses.

What is a gold and silver IRA?

A gold and silver IRA allows you to buy IRS-approved physical gold and silver within a tax-advantaged Individual Retirement Account. Your metals are stored in a highly secure, insured depository for safekeeping. Augusta Precious Metals walks you through the few, easy steps required to open the account. We help you go through required forms and help you initiate the simple process to fund your new gold IRA.

Is it difficult to liquidate a gold IRA?

Not at all. It’s easy to arrange a full or partial distribution – in either metals or cash – from your gold IRA.

• We can withdraw metals on your behalf and wire the cash to your custodian and they will transfer funds to you.
• You can request shipment of metals directly to you through your custodian.
• You can coordinate with your custodian to pick up the metals at the storage facility for distribution.

Remember, any early IRA distribution may result in taxes and penalties unless rolled over to another qualified account. Consult your tax advisor before making any withdrawals from a gold IRA.

Can I roll over my current IRA, 401(k) or other retirement savings into a gold IRA?

Yes, you can roll over funds from your traditional IRA, Roth IRA, 401(k) or 403(b) to your gold and silver IRA. That’s commonly how gold IRAs are funded. Augusta provides you with information and assistance you’ll need to make the rollover process smooth and worry-free.

Is the gold in my IRA ever subject to any risks stemming from the financial condition of the depository?

Your precious metals are stored fully allocated and off-balance-sheet at the depository. This means your gold and silver remains entirely separate from assets and liabilities of the depository. In the highly unlikely event a depository declares bankruptcy, creditors would have no claim to your metals.

What are the benefits of buying gold and silver within an IRA?

Gold and silver are considered uncorrelated assets, which means they aren’t generally correlated with traditional asset classes like stocks and bonds. Historically, they have generally moved to offset inflation and dollar devaluation. They store value organically and are historically less affected by the government and economy.

"I just got schooled by APM, and that’s exactly what I was looking for! I’ve heard and been told so many different things over the years I’d confused myself.
