Investors only have a few days left to make their IRA contributions for the 2022 tax year. Once the deadline has passed, there’s no way to retroactively contribute to your retirement plan. If you haven’t made your contributions yet, now is the time to make it happen!

Watch this week’s The Gold Spot to hear Scottsdale Bullion & Coin Sr. Precious Metals Advisor Steve Rand & IRA Liaison Michelle Ellis explain why so many investors are taking advantage of precious metals IRAs, changes in contribution limits, and how you can convert old retirement plans to gold.

Economic Pressures Force People to Hard Assets

Over the past few months, a convergence of ground-breaking economic pressures has driven investors away from paper-backed investments and into hard assets. For example:

These developments have had a disastrous impact on the US economy, forcing people to seek out precious metals to avoid market volatility. We’re seeing a massive surge of clients eager to transfer wealth from their bank accounts and paper-backed retirement accounts into precious metals IRAs.

“Right now, your money is, unfortunately, a lot more at risk than we’d like to see it.”
– Sr. Precious Metals Advisor Steve Rand

2022 IRA Contributions Limits & Deadlines

The deadline for making gold IRA contributions for the 2022 tax year is April 18, 2023. This leaves investors with just under a week to top up their nest eggs. The 2022 contribution limit is $6,000, and $7,000 for investors over 59. It’s worth noting that the IRS increased 2023 IRA contributions to $6,500 and $7,500.
