I know some of the regular posters in this section are pro gold.
Probably one of the biggest obstacles to people investing is gold is not knowing where or how to store it to ensure safety.
What is the best method of storing gold/silver? Would you recommend keeping it in a personal safe? A safety deposit box at a bank? Burying it in the ground somewhere late at night where no one will ever find it pirate style?
Also what insurance options are there? Do banks insure safety deposit boxes past $100k?
Law enforcement confiscating money/precious items seems to be on the rise. Are there any tips for avoiding having gold/silver confiscated?
I would be interested to hear thoughts on this as it could represent one area where gold/silver might be considered less preferable to crypto.
The reason why one's money usually gets confiscated is because he doesn't pay his tax or he is a criminal.
One way in which crypto is better than gold and silver is intangiblitiy, that is you don't need to have a special big safes for storing crypto. Another thing is that you don't want your gold confiscated, the government will surely not confiscate your crypto,so here you don't have to worry.
But if you want to go for gold/silver ,go for it and secure it in a locker of your own or of that of a bank and you pay the taxes, then you don't have to worry about your gold being confiscated.
