Silver IRA Investing

What is a Silver IRA?
Most IRAs consist of paper assets whereas a precious metals IRA affords you the ability to buy physical metal and have it delivered to and stored with an independent IRA custodian that you select.

What is a Silver IRA Rollover?
If you have one or more IRA accounts or movable funds in an employer retirement plan, you can transfer some or all of those assets into a Silver IRA account. A transfer occurs when IRA funds are moved at your request directly from one IRA to another, without you taking control or custody of the funds. A rollover, such as a silver IRA rollover, takes place when a distribution from an employer retirement plan is made directly to your silver IRA trustee/custodian by the plan administrator.

Basic Rules of an IRA

Anyone who has earned income, or is the spouse of a wage earner, is eligible to open a precious metals IRA, and there is no limit to how many IRA accounts an individual may have. The maximum yearly contribution to all of an individual's traditional and Roth IRAs is currently $6,000 ($7,000 for those 50 years or older), or 100% of earned income, whichever is less.

If you already have one or more IRA accounts or movable funds in an employer retirement plan, you can transfer or "rollover" some or all of those assets into a precious metals IRA account. A transfer occurs when IRA funds are moved at your request directly from one IRA to another, without you taking control or custody of the funds. A rollover, such as a gold IRA rollover, takes place when a distribution from an employer retirement plan is made directly to your gold IRA trustee/custodian by the plan administrator.
