"Hi there, I'm Cathy Pareto, the founder of Cathy Pareto & Associates, certified financial planner here in Miami, Florida. In this clip we're going to talk about gold buyers. Now what the heck are gold buyers? Gold buyers are essentially companies or firms that buy your unwanted gold or precious metals. I'm sure you've seen the commercials on cable, especially now the economy has taken a downturn and people are selling stuff to get some cash. Now you want to be a little bit careful with the firms that you deal with here and make sure that it's a reputable firm because there have been a lot of abuses. For example you might want to reconsider throwing in 2,000 dollars worth of scrap gold or metals into the mailbox without any kind of way to track that. So if you're going to look into a gold buyer to sell some of your scrap gold, make sure that it's a legitimate business, check with the Better Business Bureau in your community or on website or on the Internet online and make sure you're doing business with a good company. So that's a little bit about gold buyers and this has been Cathy Pareto in Miami, Florida."
