Where ever you eventually think you will end up is where you may find it best to store the bullion you invested in. At some point, if you want to relocate to the States you will face a lot of logistical issues with moving that much bullion, likewise, is it even that secure in the nation you currently reside provided you can actually get the physical bullion to where you are? You may feel it&#039;s safer when in your hands, but is it really? How much control do you have over it as a foreign national residing in the Philippines. Just some stuff to think about, is all I&#039;m saying. </p><p><br /></p><p>Consider the following and take it with a thought about the security of the nation where the bullion will physically be, too:</p><p><br /></p><p>In your region, and for greater security, you might do well working with depository options from the Perth Mint via their bullion operations, see their web site<b> <a href="http://www.perthmint.com.au/welcome_to_the_perth_mint_depository.aspx" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.perthmint.com.au/welcome_to_the_perth_mint_depository.aspx" rel="nofollow">here</a>. </b></p><p><br /></p><p>There are also Canadian options.<a href="http://www.bmginc.ca/bmgbullionfund/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.bmginc.ca/bmgbullionfund/" rel="nofollow"><b> BMG Inc.</b></a> is one that comes to mind, for an example. </p><p><br /></p><p>In the States you could work with bullion dealers such as FideliTrade (<b><a href="http://www.fidelitrade.com/institutions/custody.asp" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.fidelitrade.com/institutions/custody.asp" rel="nofollow">Bulk orders and Custody</a>)</b> service in Delaware, who place your purchases in their vault service. </p><p><a href="http://www.amark.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.amark.com/" rel="nofollow"><br /></a></p><p><a href="http://www.amark.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.amark.com/" rel="nofollow"></a><b><a href="http://www.amark.com/services" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.amark.com/services" rel="nofollow">A-Mark Precious Metals</a></b>&nbsp; is another dealer I would place an inquiry with about storage of large&nbsp; purchases. Some of these bullion dealers have much lower overhead than&nbsp; APMEX and Provident and can offer you much better rates. </p><p><br /></p><p>Similarly, you can have your bullion in a vault service such as <a href="http://www.fsdepository.com/Vault/about/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.fsdepository.com/Vault/about/" rel="nofollow"><b>First State Depository Company.</b></a></p><p><a href="http://www.fsdepository.com/Vault/about/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.fsdepository.com/Vault/about/" rel="nofollow"><br /></a></p><p><a href="http://www.fsdepository.com/Vault/about/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.fsdepository.com/Vault/about/" rel="nofollow"><br /></a></p><p><a href="http://www.fsdepository.com/Vault/about/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.fsdepository.com/Vault/about/" rel="nofollow"><br /></a></p><p><a href="http://www.fsdepository.com/Vault/about/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.fsdepository.com/Vault/about/" rel="nofollow"></a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
