Where's the safety factor?

Staff Reports's picture

Q: I’m retired, and currently I have about five percent of my retirement savings in gold and silver I’ve been acquiring over the last few years. I’ve seen gold prices decline significantly, and I’m wondering if I should hang on to it as a safety factor in the event the economy goes bad in a hurry.

Staff Reports's picture

Q: I’m debt-free except for my home, and I’ll have that paid off in about 12 months.

Currently, I’m paying $1,070 a month for flood insurance.
