Is my retirement money better in the Stock market or in Silver Eagles?
Answer:
The market – if you have over a decade until retirement. The stock market gives, on an averaged basis, about a 8% annual return taking inflation into consideration. Silver, on an averaged basis, pretty much just maintains its value when you take inflation into consideration.
If you want a return and your money to grow, go with the market. If you want to maintain your present level of wealth with no return or growth (but also less loss potential), go with precious metals.
