The Case for Tangible Assets Becoming Overwhelming


In an article in Bloomberg today, it was revealed that the country's third largest insurance company, Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Co, is diversifying into gold for the first time, EVER. Diversifying to the tune of $400 million in gold, to date, because of gold's history as a store of value.  The Company's CEO stated, "In the Depression, gold did very, very well...we have stocks in our portfolio that lost 95 percent."  



If an enterprise as conservative as an insurance company is jumping into tangible assets, isn't it time you did too? Art has a proven history as a store of value, especially during wars and recessions, and doesn't have to sit in a safe!
