ROBBED! My Gold Was Stolen from My Home—What I Do Now Instead

Jeff Clark, TheGoldAdvisor.com

I was robbed of my gold.

It’s a true story and honestly a little embarrassing. I had a bunch of gold Eagles and Maple Leafs stolen from my home, most of my personal holdings at the time.

The thing is, I thought they were secure: the coins were stored in a small safe, well hidden from view, with a key kept in a separate room. They had been delivered discreetly. And I never talked about them, even before I started working in the industry.

But All the Precautions I’d Taken Didn’t Matter

The thief had searched my home with meticulous desperation. Once he found the safe, it was only the work of a crowbar and hammer until my gold was gone.

I’ll never forget how violated, angry, and confused I felt. I’m sure you can relate if you’ve been victim of burglary, too. I’m just glad we weren’t home at the time… more on that in a minute.

I’ve enjoyed the Silver Stock Investor and Paydirt subscription. Since coming on board a couple months ago, I’ve challenged myself to do my own research on Gold and Silver Junior Miners that I want to own for 5 to 10 years and compare my findings to your letter. I’ve looked at over 30 companies and explored their properties, financials and management teams. It was all a waste of time! The eight companies that I found very attractive are all recommended in your portfolios. Thank you for making great suggestions. I will have confidence in what you publish going forward.

The guidance from the newsletters is truly priceless. I began my journey with the Gold Advisor two years ago and I can tell you that the realized gains this year have been very substantial and I believe the best is yet to come when the market gains recognition from the retail investors. If it were not for the bundled subscription I would not know where to begin this investing journey. I also found reading Jeff’s book “Paydirt” to be very helpful in gaining a understanding of the mining and metals industry.

Thank you very much, Mr. Jeff Clark. I appreciate all your efforts. I have benefited a lot from your lovely search about the stocks in your newsletter. It might be risky, but God knows it is really well researched, calculated risk of miners that paid unexpectedly well enough by time. Thanks a million.

I have followed Jeff for a very long time now and his working criteria means that we investors have a far greater chance of success. If there is any better advice than Jeff’s anywhere, then please tell who it is.
