Buy Gold Like a Professional Dealer
11/03/2010 by bill.
Thanks to the cost-savings enabled by the internet, there is now a way you can buy investment-grade gold bullion, outright in your name alone, at low cost. Stored in secure professional vaults in London, New York or Zurich (you choose which location you prefer), gold held at BullionVault costs just 0.12% per year, with insurance included, starting from a minimum of only $4 per month.
Buying gold at BullionVault couldn’t be simpler, nor more secure. The site lets you set your own prices using a 24/7 online order board, and it gives you instant settlement with zero credit risk. One investor who chose to buy gold at BullionVault recently wrote to say that:
“Having ownership of physical gold in BullionVault’s London vault is better than having AAA-rated bonds. Yes, we could have saved a miserly 0.12% per year by buying unallocated gold with a bullion dealer, but we now call that ’sub prime’ gold!”
To find out more about buying gold at low cost today, be sure to visit BullionVault and claim a complimentary gram of free gold — stored in Zurich, Switzerland — now…

Free Gold — Now Waiting for You in Zurich
15/05/2009 by bill.
How to Claim a Free Gram of Investment-Grade Gold Today
IF YOU LIKE buying low and enjoy selling high, then you cannot ignore this free gift of gold today.
“Gold rose 600% in the 1970s,” says Jim Rogers, world-famous fund manager and best-selling author of Adventure Capitalist.
“Then gold went down nearly every month for two years. Most people gave up.
“But then it went up another 850%.”
Gold just pulled back again in early 2008. But “that’s what happens in bull markets,” as Jim Rogers says. And buying gold to join this bull market now could prove very rewarding if his forecast comes good.
Why not find out for yourself — starting for free today?
To claim a gram of FREE GOLD with the compliments of BullionVault — the fastest growing private gold ownership service — simply click through now.
Worth more than $27 at todays prices, your free gram of gold is safe and secure inside a specialist vault in Zurich, Switzerland.
It is yours if you would like it, for free, today.
Accepting this gift won’t put you under any obligation to buy or sell in the future. Nor will BullionVault ever rent, sell or abuse your email address.
This free gift of gold is simply to show you how easy it is to own investment-grade gold outright in your name with no risk of default.
BullionVault offers you direct access to the same investment-grade gold as the professional gold market trades. This means you can also access the same low dealing and storage fees that professional gold traders enjoy, too.
Using BullionVault, you may buy and sell from as little as one gram of gold up to 20 kilos or more. All deals at BullionVault are settled immediately with gold that’s already safe and sound inside the vault.
Only ownership and cash ever change hand, reducing your dealing costs “dramatically” as the Financial Times recently put it.
You can claim your FREE gold bullion here today.
BullionVault’s online order-board also lets you quote prices and trade directly in Euros and Sterling, as well as in US Dollars.
So there’s a big saving here if you don’t have a US bank account, or you’d like to hold your savings in Euros while you wait for a dip in the gold market to get back in again. Because BullionVault cuts out the cost of currency exchange entirely.
The website’s full daily audit also shows that you own a unique quantity of investment-grade gold. Published each and every working day, this audit gives you a proven record of outright gold ownership, protecting your property rights against the financial performance of BullionVault, its suppliers and bank.
And your free gram of gold? It’s part of a large 400-ounce bar, warranted to be 99.5% pure gold or better. It’s sitting in a gold vault in Zurich right now, a vault used by professional gold dealers and banks, government agencies, global investment funds and ultra high net worth individuals.
You can now join them in owning investment-grade gold offshore in Switzerland. And choosing to own physical gold bullion, with no risk of default, might prove a valuable decision as today’s bubble in cheap debt explodes.
To claim your gram of FREE GOLD right now — and to start trading physical gold bullion on ultra-low fees — simply visit BullionVault here.
PLEASE NOTE: We will receive a small referral commission for any accounts opened through this email. But the tiny dealing fees and storage charge you will pay would be no smaller without it.
And this ground-breaking service really does give you unique access to live gold market prices, cutting out the middleman and slashing the costs of investing in gold.

How to Make Investing in Gold Simple, Secure & Cost Effective
08/04/2009 by bill.
DEEP UNDERGROUND in a secure vault in Zurich, Switzerland sits a gram of gold.
It is yours if you would like it, for free, today.
The gram is part of a 400-ounce gold bar, the only kind of bullion that professional dealers and international banks will buy and sell. It is 99.5% pure gold or better.
And it has never left the care of professional bullion vault operators…not since the day it was first cast, assayed, and delivered by armored truck through the streets of Switzerland.
This means your free gram of gold is guaranteed to be top-quality. So you can forget about wide “dealing spreads” between the buying and selling price. It will trade on the international gold market almost bang on the ’spot’ price you see quoted on the internet and in your newspaper.
Find out more, and to claim your free gold here.
No, you can’t fly out to Zurich tonight and collect your free gram of gold after breakfast tomorrow. It has to remain within that 400-ounce bar to keep its integrity and value.
And that bar — worth more than $365,000 at today’s price — has to stay in the bullion vault.
You see, the quality of a gold bar must be guaranteed if it’s going to trade on the international gold market. Wall Street banks, London bullion traders and Tokyo investment funds only deal in top-quality warranted gold.
And now you can join them.
BullionVault enables you to trade the purest gold at the tiniest spreads…with no delivery charges, minimal insurance fees, and storage costs to make your local bank blush.
Your free gram of pure gold — just like the seven tonnes of gold BullionVault now stores on behalf of people from 62 different countries worldwide — is held in the form of 400-ounce “good delivery” bars. It will retain full resale value on the professional market.
And most importantly, your free gram will belong to you outright if you choose to fund your account and add to this gold, just as it would if you bought it and kept it at home.
This is the crucial difference between BullionVault and holding “unallocated” gold with a bank, or dealing in exchange-traded gold shares through a stockbroker.
When a bank sells you unallocated gold, you become the bank’s creditor. It owes you the gold in other words, and you do not own the asset you’ve bought. The gold is only available to you if the bank remains solvent.
And if it doesn’t…?
Your BullionVault gold, on the other hand, will never be used, lent or sold by the vault where it’s stored. Nor is it merely “backed” by gold like a trust-based certificate.
Legally and in all eventualities, even a run on the banks…the collapse of the Dollar, Sterling or Euro…a stock-market meltdown…or a crash in the $700 trillion global derivatives market…your gold will be yours.
You can find out more at BullionVault now.
BullionVault offers you an easy, cheap and safe way of buying, owning, storing, and selling gold. Because it marries two technological breakthroughs that had both passed the precious metals market by entirely.
The first innovation is the Depository Trust Company’s model for making financial trading simple, safe and efficient. Just like CREST — the UK’s central stock depository in London — it keeps shares and government bonds in safe-keeping, immobilising them in a physical location.
Only ownership needs to change hands between buyer and seller, making for much faster and cheaper settlement. And at BullionVault — whose founder and director, Paul Tustain, developed I.T. systems to handle CREST dealing for Europe’s very biggest investment banks — this means all trades are settled instantly with gold that’s already safe inside the vault.
That cuts your risk of counter-party default down to zero.
The second innovation is modelled on Betfair, the internet-based gambling system based in the UK which matches orders from private buyers and sellers directly across the internet. This cuts out the middleman entirely at BullionVault, reducing your costs once again and giving you direct access to the dealing spread.
To test-drive this ground-breaking service for yourself today, starting with a free gram of Swiss gold, go to BullionVault now.
No middlemen, no delivery costs, and no risk of losing your gold if crisis hits the banking world. You can buy or sell whatever quantity of gold you like, starting from just one gram today.
Your gold investment will be stored and insured by ViaMat, the privately-owned Swiss storage company in your choice of New York, London or Zurich.
So if you don’t trust the government to leave your investments entirely in your hands, the option of storing gold deep underground in Switzerland may be of interest!
If you’ve not heard of ViaMat, don’t be surprised. This professionally-recognized bullion transporter and vault operator likes to remain quiet and discreet, just like its wealthiest clients.
But be clear on this point — ViaMat is not a bank. Instead, and for the last 62 years, it has simply stored valuable goods without getting involved in unallocated arrangements and other financial wizardry.
Keeping your gold in ViaMat’s high-security vaults makes the actuarial risk of loss so small that it costs only 0.12% per year to store your gold with insurance included. That’s less than a third what you’ll pay to store gold in a bank through an exchange-traded gold fund.
And thanks to BullionVault’s instant online trading and settlement system, you can take profits or add to your position the very moment gold makes the move you’ve been waiting for.
The live gold-market order board is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. That gives you the chance to trade gold long after the London stock market closes, and even before Asia opens the next morning!
The crucial thing is that your gold will have stayed inside that specially approved bullion vault. So its resale value will be right up there with the “spot” price you see quoted in the newspapers and on the internet.
To find out more, and claim your complimentary gram of Zurich gold, just go to BullionVault now.
When you buy gold through BullionVault, you do NOT buy a financial security, like a share or a warrant. You’re buying the metal itself. It’s your property; it belongs to you.
But to keep your costs low, and to make sure you can sell your gold straight back onto the international bullion market…where the spread between ‘buy’ and ’sell’ prices runs almost to zero…you simply take legal delivery via a custodian — ViaMat International, the leading secure vault operator in Switzerland — without taking possession at home.
You see, your gold is part of a Good Delivery bar. Weighing 12.4kg, these bars have a minimum assayed purity of 99.5%. BullionVault buys these guaranteed, market deliverable gold bars, and store them at ViaMat on your behalf.
“Of course, we accept the sensitivity of what we are doing,” says Paul Tustain. “Which is why we publish our daily audit. This means you can safely check your holding within the vault — from any internet computer anywhere in the world — and prove it to the actual physical bars evidenced by the ViaMat bar list that’s issued to us.”
This is so simple, but so important. When you open an account with BullionVault, you are given your own unique ‘nickname’. It’s only known to you, of course. No one else will know that you’re storing a portion of your wealth offshore.
Every day, BullionVault then publishes a full list of every single ‘nickname’ holding gold through its unique system. This list is published on a public internet page. And the sum value of the list (with your nickname on it, remember) adds up exactly to the value of the bar list issued by ViaMat.
In short, this means that you can see in a transparent yet discreet way what your holding in the system is, every day.
To open your account — and to start trading your complimentary gram of Zurich gold now — click through to BullionVault today.
“Love the service and the site,” says one British user of BullionVault. “Actually, your whole business model is a good one and like many excellent ideas is simple and just leaves me wondering why it hasn’t been done before.”
“If there is an easier route to purchasing bullion I have not found it.”
TH

Is Gold a Good Investment?
11/03/2009 by bill.
As they turn their back on stocks and shares and property investments, many investors turn to gold as relatively safer. Many experts suggest that gold should form part of the portfolio of any serious investor. However, as with most investments it is important to take a medium to long term view, investing in gold or other precious metals should not be seen as a way of making a quick buck.
As with any investment, My Money Jungle recommends that you seek independent expert advice before investing in gold but if you decide to do so it is really easy to invest on-line through BullionVault.com.
