The third book in the Building a Financial Fortress series, "Investing in Gold and Silver" provides a concise overview of the fundamentals of investing in gold and silver as part of a diversified investment portfolio and a key strategy for wealth preservation.
Building A Financial Fortress is a wonderful series. Thus far, this one is my favorite. Short, informative and to the point. I've thought about investing in gold but it seemed so complicated. This book gives the basis of the inner workings of our financial world in an easy to understand formula. I now understand the valuation of the dollar and why I receive so many credit card offers which I've always considered junk mail. I like advice and plans to fatten up my financial future. They're included in this book giving me more ammunition for my financial fortress. At the end of this book I reached the page where Amazon asked me to rate my experience with this book. I felt the information was simplified and descriptive enough that I can begin to add precious metals to my financial portfolio. So, five stars it is!
I received this as a winner of a First Read contest. A short pamphlet size (25 pages) booklet explaining the American monetary system and the importance of Gold and Silver as investments. I am a novice as my husband does all the investing for us but it was helpful to me to explain terms such as "monetizing debt" and "quantitative easing" There is a suggested invested strategy offered with percentages of stocks, bonds. real estate, alternate investments which includes Gold, Silver and other metals and cash. For me it was a good beginning primer to investing.
