Buying Precious Metals with Your Self Directed IRA or Solo 401(k)

According to Form 590, the IRS has allowed certain forms of precious metals to be invested in IRA’s or other Qualified plans such as Simple IRA’s and solo 401k’s. It has become widely known that Gold, Silver and other precious metals (Platinum & Palladium) can be an excellent investment today, due to the decline of the US Dollar and the massive federal debt. By Self-Directing your IRA or 401(k) investments into precious metals, your profits are tax-deferred back into your retirement account. Precious metals are the original currency of early civilizations and therefore a store of value, literally for thousands of years. The purchase of Bullion is a surprisingly safe investment and has always had value.
