Birch Gold Group pros and cons
Worth a look for
- Retirement account explainers
- Four metals, not just gold
The catch
Dealer premiums, custodian fees, and storage are billed by different parties and need to be added up together.
Birch Gold Group costs, terms, and who qualifies
Get a written quote for the same coin or bar from two dealers on the same day. Make sure it includes the premium over spot, shipping, the custodian's fee, and storage. Spot is a reference number. Nobody sells at spot.
Before you commit to Birch Gold Group, ask for today’s terms in writing for the exact product or service you want. Pin down every one-time and recurring charge, who qualifies, which states are covered, and how you cancel or get out.

When someone else may be the better pick
A gold IRA involves three separate businesses. The dealer sells you the metal. The custodian runs the retirement account. The depository stores the bars. Get a signed agreement from each one and know who to call when something goes wrong.
