Gold/Prescious metals IRAs

I would like to know what do you think about owning physical gold and silver via "Gold IRA"? I have the bulk of my retirement money in a 457, deffered compensation account.  I did some reserch and learned there are "Gold/Precious Metal IRA's", where a person can buy and deposit actual physical metal.  I have not read about this in your information re: owning metals and wondered why?  Do you know if these investment vechicles are legitement?  What do you think of this option?

 

I am 67 yrs old and retired, so the money I have saved from past working years is the only money I can trade with and I can do a roll over.  So I could roll over the money from the 457 and use it to buy gold and silver.  I am leary of doing this because no one one seems to know about this option in general.  I trust your opinon and woud appreciate any insights you have.  

Thank you, Shanti

for all you gold buffs....

Interesting graphics. Too much text/numbers to post here.

We here at NumberSleuth are all about exploring the world of numbers, and with this infographic we decided to take a look at the numbers behind the entire amount of gold in the world. Below are a series of questions that we began with and the answers we discovered in our research. We believe that this is the most thorough and in-depth resource about the world's gold on the Internet and we hope you have as much fun reading through the information as we did in putting it all together.
