<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 1357849, member: 3011&quot;]If you plan to buy CEF [and maybe some of the others you mentioned], you will need to become familiar with the tax rules regarding PFICs [passive foreign investment companies].&nbsp; If you don&#039;t fill out the correct tax forms and make the correct elections, you can end up paying tax every year on unrealized gains, and in some cases it can go to 100%.&nbsp; Many of the problems can be avoided if the PFIC is held in a tax deferred account such as a 401k.&nbsp; That said, I&#039;m not sure PMs are an appropriate investment for someone just making ends meet.&nbsp; You should only invest if a significant loss won&#039;t matter much to your financial situations.&nbsp; For all of the benefits of owning gold and silver, they must still be considered high risk investments.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
