In this segment, John Bowens discusses the three most commons myths investors assume about investing in precious metals with a self-directed IRA.
The common myths include:
1. There will be tax penalties for investing in physical metals with a self-directed IRA, Roth IRA, or solo 401(k).
2. I can only rollover and transfer funds to a self-directed account one time a year.
3. I can hold the physical metals in a safety deposit box in my name or at my own physical residence/business address.
Watch how these myths are debunked and how investors can potentially benefit from investing in precious metals such as gold and silver with a self-directed account.
