SECURE PURCHASE Purchases held in own custody your liquid assets in precious metals Throughout the history of mankind, credit currencies have never lasted. Historically, all banknote-based currencies without proper backing have failed, and each time this resulted in major losses for those who deposited funds or invested in life insurance or other assets with a nominal value. For these reasons, building and expanding ones financial investments in precious metals is an essential part of any asset investment scheme. As a first step, we recommend a personal stock of gold and silver coins as well as small bars which you can keep at hand. Depending on the amount you want to invest, we also recommend adding platinum, palladium and physical investment diamonds the world s most compact asset investment. Experience shows that gold and silver in solid form have proved to provide optimal protection against financial and currency crises. A basic stock of precious metals should be kept in a secure place at hand, as the ultimate asset insurance, accessible at any time. Small units in silver coins (e.g. 1 ounce Maple Leaf) or CombiBars, i.e. divisible precious metal bars consisting of a set number of 1 gram bars, are particularly suited for your personal stock.
