Gold and other precious metal IRAs are an investment and carry risk. Consumers should be alert to claims that customers can make a lot of money in these or any investment with little risk. As with any investment, you can lose money and past performance is not a guarantee of future performance results. Consumers should also obtain a clear understanding of the fees associated with any investment before agreeing to invest.
South Central Wisconsin residents have several options if they want to invest in gold. If you're investing in gold coins and jewelry, we recommend working with a certified, experienced dealer or broker. However, there are other ways to invest in gold worth considering:
Is it legal to pan for gold in Wisconsin?
Yes, however, you must obtain a collector’s permit to mine for gold in public waters. As long as you aren’t using a mechanized method of collection or separation, you do not need a permit to pan for gold recreationally in other areas of Wisconsin.
How does a gold IRA work?
A gold IRA works like any other IRA, except the account holds physical gold. A gold IRA broker and custodian manage your investment account for a fee.
What is a gold IRA rollover?
With a rollover, you can convert a traditional retirement account, such as a 401(k), into a gold IRA. This process transforms your retirement accounts into physical assets, rather than paper or digital ones.
Are there taxes on buying gold and silver bullion in Wisconsin?
The State of Wisconsin considers gold a collectible and subject to capital gains taxes. Sales and use taxes, both 5%, are also applied to the purchase of gold and silver bullion in Wisconsin. According to the Wisconsin Department of Revenue, gold sellers can file for an exemption certificate to avoid tax liability, though.
Is gold a good investment?
Gold can be a good investment if you’re looking to diversify your portfolio or reduce depreciation risk. Talk to your financial advisor to determine if investing in gold is beneficial to your goals.
