Reply #32: Gold, silver and certified & graded rare coins.

This should be part of your investment portfolio EVEN if you have debt. The best way to buy silver is pre-1964 US silver coins and 1965-1969 40% silver Kennedy half dollars. They have silver content, plus the face value to fall back on in case silver crashes. For instance, one 40% silver Kennedy half will always be worth 50 cents (its face value). If you choose to invest in rare coins, do your homework first, so you don't get taken.
