Anyone know anything about this?
« on: February 19, 2017, 01:52:20 PM »
It's been suggested by a number of online people I listen to to use this product. Anybody have any experience with it? Good, bad?

I did a quick search at goldismoney2.com and looked at some posts there. What I read is that goldmoney was founded by James Turk, who has a decent reputation, and in 2015 sold out to another company (bitgold if I remember right). In my limited searching, I did not see any complaints or derisive remarks.

On the other hand, probably most on that forum strongly believe "If you don't HOLD it, you don't OWN it!" In other words, people on that forum probably would not entertain the idea of letting someone else hold their precious metals. So a lack of complaints might imply a lack of experience with that company.

Personally, I would not consider letting any company hold my PM's, assuming I could even find them after that boating accident.

If I ever find a dead cat, I will put it in a black box and give it to a physicist friend.  Then when he opens the box, I will shout, "Hey! You killed my cat!"

Jim Turk is a friend, and I like his idea and execution.
I hope GM continues his quality concept.
