About

A research desk for gold fees, premiums, and tradeoffs.

Goldrush.net is being built as a transparent fee and premium research desk for people considering Gold IRAs or physical bullion. The goal is not to sell fear. The goal is to show costs, sources, caveats, and tradeoffs before a reader talks to a provider.

Goldrush is owned by Kelly Kercher, a business and technology operator researching precious-metals ownership costs. That framing is intentional: this site does not pretend to provide personalized financial advice or licensed investment recommendations.

Money pages are designed to be reviewed for factual accuracy by an outside CPA, CFP, retirement specialist, or similarly qualified reviewer before they are treated as fully published recommendations.

What makes Goldrush different

  • Unpublished fees are labeled as unpublished instead of guessed.
  • Opaque fee schedules lower a company's transparency score.
  • Dealer premium data is collected on a dated, repeatable methodology.
  • Affiliate compensation never justifies hiding negatives, complaint patterns, or regulatory concerns.

Educational content only. Goldrush.net does not provide investment, tax, legal, or retirement advice.
