Spring has sprung! Provident is located in Dallas, TX and we’ve been experiencing warm weather for some time now, but we know that spring is just beginning to show itself for many of our customers. It’s an exciting time of year. Plants are blossoming back to life, the sun is staying out longer, and baby animals are popping up around lakes and in livestock pastures.
This time of year is generally known as a time of renewal. People are shaking off the winter blues and restructuring their daily routines. Aside from putting the coats into storage and doing some spring cleaning around your home, another way to renew yourself for the season ahead is to take a look at your investment portfolio.
Your investment needs may have changed, so take a closer look at your finances, investment trajectory, and goals. Some of the questions to ask yourself may include:
- Have my investment needs changed based on a change in income?
- Do I need to increase or decrease my investment based on the needs of dependents?
- Are my investments diversified?
- Are my investments still working in my favor?
We want to help with your investment goals, so we’re giving away a piece of silver! Entering Provident’s April giveaway is easy. All you need to do is leave a comment below and tell us your favorite thing about springtime. One winner will be randomly selected on Thursday, April 13 to receive a 2017 1 oz Silver Year of the Rooster Coin from the Perth Mint’s Lunar series. Leave your comments by April 12 at 11:59 PM to be entered to win.
Good luck and happy spring!


My favorite thing about spring here in Iowa is the smell of the blooming lilac bushes around my garden. I spend nearly all of my free time out in my garden reading, relaxing, soaking in the sun and enjoying the fresh, lilac-infused air.
Spring motivates me to get up on all my projects and goals including adding to my silver stack.
I love spring. The flowers blooming, and everything is full of color, you can’t help but be full of energy and smile. from hearing the birds sing to the kids playing in the yard, fills your heart with joy. SPRING IS HERE.
The best thing about spring, for me, is to go out into the yard and see the thousands, yes, I said thousands, of flowers that my wife worked so hard to plant blooming. There is so much color. It takes my breath away.
I love burying the silver in my back yard. Digging it up to watch it shine in the sun. It helps my profits grow
I love spring because I can spring online to provident. And watch my profits rise like flowers!
Usually some great weather during springtime. I especially enjoy the birds singing, children playing, dogs chasing butterflies and heightened wizardry senses.
I LOVE playing with my young daughter and my bulldog outside in the nice weather!
Getting the lawn mower and gardening tools ready to start the new year of lawn care. Also researching the newest plans for bird feeders and info on how to attract new species.
My favorite thing about spring is the weather starts to get warmer and the days start to get longer.
I love that everything is coming alive and becoming so beautiful, especially after such a long hard winter! The smells of spring and the birds busy building their nests! I LOVE SPRING
I love spring because of spring brakes flowers and the trees and the bees and the cool temperature in the fact that it is my birthday time call it’s with spring I just love it it’s brand new beginning
I love the change in the LIGHT. It has a different color temperature which affects the plants and the birds. I notice that my African Violets on the windowsill start to set buds and flower profusely making me feel cheery after a long harsh winter.
Change. Spring is always a time of change. Just like silver is a constant, retaining value over time. Change is also something to expect and embrace, a true constant of life.
No more snow
The squirrels emerge from the trees in my backyard, celebrating their survival from the harsh winter. The winter has been the Nature’s cruel population control tool on squirrels in the south.
What I love about spring is playing outside with my 3 year old and doing outside activities with my family! They are the reason I invest in gold and silver!
I love that the leafs change their color and the trees begin to look awesome.
What I love about spring is the longer days and watching my children doing Easter egg hunts. I also love the Easter Sunday feasts and the warmer weather!!
love to see the buds popping out on the trees to know that the leaves will soon arrive and summer will be here
I love to see Spring come because the winters here in North Central Indiana seem to hang on way to long. And i love Spring Morel mushroom hunting and adding to my silver by treasure hunting with my metal detector.
Nice weather! A good time to go hiking, camping, fishing and spend time with the kid while they are off school for the week.
My 13 month old son Sawyer just started walking and I love that he will be able to play outside now that the weather is warming up here on the east coast.
Spring storms
Temps in Tucson may get to be in the 90’s but the nights are beautiful this time of year always AND baseball is back!
It’s time for golf!
I love being able to walk down to our local market with my wife and son, without being drenched from rain or drenched from sweat in mid summer. Spring is the perfect time for outdoors time with the family.
Being able to take the kids fishing, swimming, and playing outdoor games. Building precious memorie!
The birdies singing sweetly in the radiant sunshine. I thought I heard one sing “Go buy more silver-todee-dee-dee!”
When I lived in the north it was watching Mother Earth come back to life. Everyday there was something else to admire. Birds coming back from the south, new buds on the trees, and my favorite; the smell of fresh cut grass.
Now I will have my first full summer in the south. I suspect I’ll be cooped up indoors with the AC on most of the time as I doubt I will have acclimated to the heat enough not to.
