"If you
are looking for thorough guidelines for making good decisions
about private gold ownership, The ABCs of Gold Investing has all the answers."
Money World Magazine
"Highly
recommended!" The
Midwest Book Review
"Whether
you own some gold or are just toying with the idea, you must
have this book." The
Conservative Book Club
"A must read if you are
considering gold... an easy to read book that you should
have in your library if you own gold or are considering gold
as an investment. All the basic 'how to buy' information is here
plus much more. For example, The chapter titled 'G is For Government
Debt' is a real eye opener if you want to know how the U.S. dollar
got into the mess it is in today. Reading this chapter alone
should give you reasons to invest in hard assets as opposed to
currency based investments. Kosares is not new to the gold market.
He has been writing about gold and educating consumers about
this precious metal for many years. In fact, this is the second
edition of his book and it appears to have been substantially
updated. Bottom line - read The ABC's of Gold Investing
and then read it again. There is much wisdom between the covers
of this book."
"Terrific starter book! Lots of nice
information that's not found on any of the commercial investing
sites. This book will not contribute much to my wealth, and it
does not pretend to give us investing advice. It's a fun read,
absolutely worth the price, and anyone holding gold (or thinking
about it) should read this. I intend to read it over again. Soon."
"Not being a 'savy' gold
investor, I wanted to find a book that would provide a good understanding
of all the issues surrounding gold investments both for profitability
and asset protection. This book is definitely worth the read.
It is very informative in covering the history of gold and how
it responds with inflation and deflation, explaining different
investor objectives, and providing a great overall summary of
how to go about investing in gold. This book has provided me
the basic knowledge to begin my gold investing. Good book to
have in your library."
"If you are new to gold
investing, this is the book you want to own. As a researcher
looking at the dynamics of financial crises, and how individuals
can protect and grow wealth in such an environment, I own a number
of books that discuss gold's merits. Kosares' work provides an
excellent overview of gold as a tool for asset preservation and
growth. The strategies in the book incorporate the physical commodity
rather than paper instruments like mining stocks, so be advised.
I highly recommend this easy-to-read investment guide."
"I cannot recommend this book enough if you are planning
on investing in gold. It is perfect for a Beginner. This book
is well written, organized with a wealth of information, and
very easy to read. Mr Kosares, who has over 30 years experience
in investing gold, gives very good reasons why you may want to
invest 10-30% of your portfolio in gold, what form of gold to
buy, what to look for as you find a gold firm to purchase from,
how to try and prevent the US government from confiscating gold
from you as FDR did in 1933, objectively compares gold vs. silver
investment, what has to be reported to the IRS, how gold is a
winner during inflationary and deflationary times, etc etc. There
is a lot to know about gold investment, and this book is a very
good road map to investing in gold successfully. I highly recommend
this book."
