If you’ve come to my blog looking for information on how and why to join a gold and silver / bullion affiliate program, then congratulations, you’ve come to the right place.

This is just a review/discussion of the affiliate program, to join the bullion affiliate program, click here

The reason that I like the Regal bullion affiliate program, and the reason that I recommend it to you, is two-fold … first of all, the program pays well; and secondly the program is a good deal for the retail investor.

I imagine that the average retail investor is particularly well served by moving their IRA or 401k or money held outside of a retirement account from stocks and bonds or from cash or CD’s into physical metal stored in Delaware Depository in Wilmington Delaware where their metal will be stored in an allocated and/or segregated fashion.

This is because it’s likely that the investments in gold and silver will do better than stocks, bonds and CD’s and also because segregated and allocated physical precious metals, gold and silver, cannot be loaned out, or re-hypothecated by the stock brokerage firm or investment bank such that then the retail client is left with only a balance sheet claim against the brokerage house.  Instead, the segregated and allocated metals are held and stored in the client’s name and can’t be loaned out as collateral by the brokerage house who manages the IRA or investment account, in contrast to traditional stock and bond type investment accounts where this is a common practice.
