Metal Detecting For Fun And Profit

Wednesday, July 14th, 2010

When you are at a park or the beach and you see someone with one of the metal detectors on a long pole, sweeping it back and forth over the ground, what thoughts pass through your mind? Do you tell yourself, “Oh great, just what the world needs; another metal detecting freak”?.

Do you imagine her spending hours digging up pennies and old soda cans? Maybe you were with friends and the site of this person was good for a big laugh from all of you.

Does this describe your reaction? If it does, that means you will be getting a metal detector someday. Almost every metal detecting hobbyist started out making fun of people they saw using their detectors. But, then they realized they had questions about them.

Do those things really work well? How sensitive are they? How deep can they detect metal? Do they ever find anything? Even if its just change, how much money have they collected? Has it paid for itself yet? Did they find any jewelry? Was it expensive jewelry? On the beach, where are the best results; in or out of the water?

If you know anyone who has a metal detector you really should ask her to show you how it works. Go out exploring for a few hours, one day. You will probably be hooked from that time, forward. Do not ask your friend to loan her unit to you. Wars have been fought over much less than that.

Camp sites can be fruitful, especially if they are boy scout or girl scout camps, since those get used so much.

Why Is Gold Bullion A Secure Place For Assets

Monday, May 11th, 2009
by Barry Duvau

We simply do not know what is going to happen with this economy, and if the US bailouts will find success or failure yet. The General Motors bailout might be a rousing success. However, the opposite could be true of the auto industry and or the banking system. Simply put, there is no way to tell.

While the future may be uncertain, there is one thing that is secure. That thing is a commodity, a super commodity called Gold. No matter what happens in the economy, right now is the time to start investing in gold.

Now, the above statement may sound a little extreme so many. However, the truth is gold bullion offers a level of protection from economic collapse that no other commodity offers. Some of the soundest advice you can receive is to diversify your investment portfolio. There are four main investments that make up a well diversified portfolio- Stocks, bonds, real estate, and physical gold bullion (coins and bars).

It’s pretty clear that the rich and savvy investors are running to gold bullion. Here’s a couple reasons why:

1) It’s hard to rely on paper money when so often in the past it has lost all of its value, while never in thousands of years has the gold market crashed.

2) Gold stocks and gold ETFs are manipulated by the very same people who have driven this market into the ground, falling prey to these schemes has cost many their fortunes.

Essentially, when times get tough, the tough buy gold. This economic stimulus package and the billions of dollars in it don’t appear out of thin air. Realistically there are going to be consequences for these actions. A huge stress relief is when your investment is in a commodity that is as secure as possible. A huge hint that gold is secure is the simple fact that major banks hold their assets in physical gold.

It can’t be emphasized enough that what is being referred to here is real physical gold bullion. Don’t be fooled by people selling you snake oil gold ETF’s and such. Admittedly these kinds of investments to have their purpose when thinking in the short term, but they actually devalue the longer you have them. Think long term when making your gold investment and you will be much safer.

Recently many respected voices in the investing community have been speaking out and making bold predictions about the price of gold. Predictions that, if they are even half true, cannot be ignored. Gold is predicted to sell at over $1,000 an ounce by the end of 2009, and it could peak in the future back to what it was in 1980 of over $2,500 an ounce.

Why Is Physical Gold Such A Good Investment

We simply do not know what is going to happen with this economy, and if the US bailouts will find success or failure yet. The General Motors bailout might be a rousing success. However, the opposite could be true of the auto industry and or the banking system. Simply put, there is no way to tell.

We can’t foretell the future, but we can review the past. Gold has always been, and will always be a safe haven investment. It doesn’t matter how the worlds financial system ends up, gold is here to stay.

Now, the above statement may sound a little extreme so many. However, the truth is gold bullion offers a level of protection from economic collapse that no other commodity offers. Some of the soundest advice you can receive is to diversify your investment portfolio. There are four main investments that make up a well diversified portfolio- Stocks, bonds, real estate, and physical gold bullion (coins and bars).

It’s pretty clear that the rich and savvy investors are running to gold bullion. Here’s a couple reasons why:

1) It’s no secret that times of economic recession result in wars between nations and many firmly believe that every fallout bunker should be stocked with plenty of Gold, Guns, and Glacier bottled water.

2) The world financial institutes demand their debts with each other be payed in nothing less than physical gold bullion, what do they know that we don’t?

Bear economies cause the rich to run for gold as fast as possible. It’s plain to see that these billions and trillions of dollars don’t just print themselves out of nothing. Well actually they do, and that’s going to have repercussions. To avoid the coming backlash, a good portfolio should have it’s largest assets in a secure investment. If it’s good enough for the world banks to use, then it’s good enough for us.

Now don’t forget the importance of owning actual glittering gold. Fake gold comes in many forms like ETF’s and gold stocks. While these have their place in the short term investment world, you want something that will stand the test of time. Plan for 20 years in the future when you invest in gold and you will get the correct perspective.

It is undeniable that the top financial advisors have been actively promoting buying gold now before the price rises much higher. And it will rise in price for sure. By the end of this year it is said to reach over one thousand dollars an OZ, and that this isn’t even half of what it could peak at very soon.
