A Gold IRA is an IRS-approved retirement account that functions in the same way as any regular IRA. Unlike conventional retirement accounts such as IRA and 401(k) accounts that limit your options in standard paper-based assets such as stocks, mutual funds and bonds, a Gold IRA allows you the added benefit of investing in physical gold coins and bars.
