Champion NASCAR driver Zane Smith has recently been sporting a new logo on his No. 38 Ford F-150 during outings at Pocono Raceway and Milwaukee Mile Speedway – none other than Birch Gold Group. Having won the Camping World Truck Series in 2022 as a driver for Front Row Motorsports, Smith knows about pursuing gold. As premier precious metal specialists, that further contributes to our excitement about being his sponsor and gold company of choice. Folks here at Birch Gold Group are definitely proud to be able to say we work for the Zane Smith gold company.
“With numerous wins and a championship to his name, Zane Smith and his Front Row Motorsports team are no stranger to gold,” said Andy Klein, Chief Marketing Officer of Birch Gold Group, the Zane Smith gold sponsor. “And when Zane’s racing, he’s in total control. Unfortunately, when it comes to our retirement savings, most of us simply aren’t. The NASCAR fan base is a perfect place for us to educate more people about our services and help them prepare their IRA or 401(k) for the future. We look forward to this partnership and meeting a lot more people.”
At 24 years old, Smith is a relative newcomer to the NASCAR scene. All the same, his gold in the truck series was preceded by two other awards: Most Popular Driver (based on votes from the media) and Rookie of the Year (based on votes from fans) for the Gander RV & Outdoors Truck Series in 2020. Smith is clearly turning heads and catching attention, making him the ideal driver to spread awareness about the potential of precious metal investments. Retirement should be a top priority for everyone, but many people aren’t doing what they can to plan for their future. “I hope I can help younger people like me start thinking about their own future and saving for retirement,” says Smith. “It’s an important step that people sometimes put off for too long.”
Prior to NASCAR, Smith drove in the Craftsman Truck Series in 2020 and 2021, placing second in each competition, and in the ARCA Menards Series of 2018. Way back in 2015, he won his first gold at the World Series of Asphalt driving in the Super Late Model division.
Smith’s 2023 season in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck series is already looking bright, as he’s won 2 of the 14 events he’s competed in as of mid-July.
“It’s important to have great partners as a part of the team,” says Smith. “The addition of Birch Gold Group just helps keep the team focused on the task at hand on the track, and I can help Birch Gold Group spread their message on and off the track. It’s nice to have everything in place and go and defend this title with all out partners that now includes Birch Gold Group.”
“I like being number one, and gold is number one in precious metals.
If you’re a betting person, Smith looks like a good bet based on his reliable high-quality performance that’s earned him 100 wins. Similarly, investing in gold is a smart choice because its value has endured throughout human history. You can count on it to do well in the long term.
Unlike betting on the outcome of a single race, however, investing in gold using an IRA is much less risky. For most investors, in fact, it’s actually about minimizing risk – especially with the volatility of the dollar and inflation knocking at the door. By allotting some of your retirement contribution to tangible assets (like gold), you aren’t relying only on the power of the dollar to keep itself afloat. “I’m happy to have a sponsor like Birch Gold that can help NASCAR fans save for retirement,” says Zane Smith. “This partnership will hopefully help my fans have a better future for themselves and their families.”
At Birch Gold Group, we are proud to be Zane Smith’s gold company of choice – and we hope you’ll consider joining us in the race to future-proof retirement accounts across the country.
