Collin Plume: The Golden Rules for a People-First Financial Future – Part One

Part One.

I used to work in LA for TCW Asset Management, where I managed billion-dollar funds for institutions alongside the Bond King, Jeffrey Gundlach, focusing on bond and credit portfolios. Today, I’m meeting someone else from LA, but with a different angle on investment—precious metals like gold and silver. Our guest, Collin Plume, is here to talk about something often overlooked and undervalued.

But don’t worry—this isn’t a sales pitch on buying gold or silver.

Collin and I will dive into more personal topics: family, parenting, retirement, and the sense of control over personal finance, as well as financial education for future generations. So if you have kids, care about your financial future, are looking after elderly family members, or are simply concerned about financial and family planning in general, join us and get inspired by Collin’s journey in building wealth from scratch.

This is part 1 of our 2-part series on Collin and his golden rules of people-focused finance. 

Key Highlights of Our Interview:

From Childhood Coin Collector to Precious Metals Expert: How Silver Sparked a Lifelong Passion

“I received silver coins as a child, and even though they were worth just 25 cents on the surface, I learned they were actually worth much more. That stuck with me and led me to see gold and silver as overlooked assets.”

Noble Gold: The Three Careers That Made It Happen

“Insurance taught me customer service. Real estate taught me employee loyalty. And precious metals? That taught me marketing. Together, those experiences became the foundation for Noble Gold.”

It’s All About the People: Why Noble Gold Invests in Human, Not Just AI

“I realized early on that it’s not about what you’re selling—it’s about the people. Everything we do at Noble Gold is focused on creating the best possible human experience. While other companies are going all-in on AI, we’ve hired actual people to build relationships.”

Gold Bars Under the Mattress: Why Some Investors Want to Feel Their Wealth

“As funny as it sounds, some people might still stash their gold under the bed. It’s all about having control—physical, tangible control over your investments.”

Gold to the Rescue: Beating Inflation and Outpacing Bank Returns

“In a time of soaring inflation, 4% returns in the bank aren’t enough. Gold, up 27%, is proving to be a more reliable way to keep up with the rising cost of living.”
