Stack Silver Get Gold: How To Buy Gold And Silver Bullion Without Getting Ripped Off! Paperback – April 6, 2016

Hunter Riley has set up an easy to read and understand program to learn about gold and silver from the basic collecting to the more advanced systematic buy and store methods. Inflation of our currency continues to rob us of our future. Investing in metals is a program for some financial self defense. Highly recommended.

I enjoyed reading this book because it reinforced a lot of what I have deduced from experience.

Hunter Riley III writes in Stack Silver Get Gold - How to Buy Gold and Silver Bullion without Getting Ripped Off! "...he spent seven years in the futures pits on the floor of Chicago Mercantile Exchange and have been investing in silver and gold for the last eleven years." He wrote the book I was prepping for, after my initial "Gold Rush!" I recommend you buy his book. It covers much of the same information about how to buy silver and gold that I covered, yet he offers an example of inflation that cuts through all the economic fog that advisers love to spin. You will understand after his example, how governments steal your wealth.Riley covers the shocking decline of silver supplies in the world and how that could lead to a price rise similar to Palladium. He writes that Palladium used to trade for $100 an ounce and when supplies shrank, shot up to over $1000 where it has stayed ever since. One nit here; Riley has the trend right on Palladium, but the prices are wrong. The all time high was $857 and it's currently around $605. Maybe he meant Platinum, but then it's trading about $1551.Riley does a good job of outlining the supply and demand characteristics of Silver and shares a unique way of acquiring silver that's new to me. He uses Silver Saver. The advantage is you can buy a set amount of silver each month essentially a dollar-cost averaging method to build a silver position.Finally, the Suggested Resources section is spot on. My advice: start with "The Creature from Jekyll Island" by G. Edward Griffin. Then you will really understand why Ron Paul wanted to get rid of the Federal Reserve.Mike Landfair is a former stockbroker and author of "Gold Rush!" Why we are on the verge of a third gold mania and how to buy gold.

My first book on investing in gold/silver coins, after comparing Dave Ramsey to Robert Kiyosaki I decided to delve into the topic. I learned a lot of interesting stuff as someone who wasn’t exposed to this side of investing, for one I never knew about gold being confiscated in 1933 and how it was illegal to own more than 5oz without facing serious charges. Chance favors the prepared mind, I definitely recommend this to all novices. It was an easy read with tons of resources on their websites.

I could not have asked for a better book to read, as a complete beginner, with respect to precious metals investing. I sat down to read this book and literally did not get up out of the chair until I finished it, two hours later. It is a very straight forward, no fluff, easily understandable, bare bones explanation of the importance of buying precious metals, and how to do so in the most risk-free way possible, i.e. scams to avoid, best places to buy, premium spread to consider, where to store, etc., with a short explanation of precious metals investing in the US and why it is a smart move to do so.If you are looking for lots of detailed history, with respect to US Money practices and how that affects precious metals rise and fall in price, I would suggest Rich Dad's Guide to Investing in Gold and Silver: Protecting Your Financial Future, which goes into great detail about monetary policy, with lots of charts. I have read both and both are excellent, but if you are a newbie, start with Stack Silver, Get Gold.Just as the description states, you will be able to set up an account and start purchasing with confidence, immediately after reading the book. I very highly encourage you to buy this book if, like I was, you are at a loss as to how even to begin to determine a safe means of buying precious metals.

This Booklet is a good primer on how to buy and store gold and silver bullion products.BUT, there is very little advice here on how to SELL.You absolutely must have a good way to SELL !You can't pay your bills with a silver or gold bullion product. For example, you can't pay your real estate taxes, mortgage or buy a car with silver or gold bullion. You must first convert that bullion to cash - in our case US dollars - and then pay the bill or purchase the product.Selling is a VERY important part of the process and this is not explained at all.Also the ETF discussion is not entirely accurate. The author mentions that some ETFs hold the bullion, but that others like GLD and SLV [the biggest ETFs] allegedly do not. The author states "They [GLD and SLV] don't necessarily own the physical gold or silver." That is not accurate as the SEC filed prospectus for GLD and SLV each state that they are legally obligated to buy, store and hold silver and gold bullion at authorized custodian facilities. You may not like the custodian arrangements but the ETFs are legally obligated to hold the bullion and provide audits to confirm the presence of the bullion at the custodians.
