About Us
Hi,
Hi, I’m Mikael — founder of CDLPonline — and I’m glad you’re here.

Gold has long been a cornerstone of wealth preservation, but investing in it isn’t always straightforward. With so many options, strategies, and unfortunately, a fair number of misleading companies in the space, it can be tough to know where to start — or who to trust.
That’s where we come in.
CDLP stands for Certified Diversified Long-term Planning — a name that reflects our core mission: to help investors make smart, diversified, and secure decisions for their future. We focus on long-term wealth preservation through precious metals, with a special emphasis on gold IRAs.
At CDLPonline, we don’t sell gold. We educate. We research. And we compare the top-rated gold IRA providers so you can make decisions based on facts — not hype.
Whether you're brand new to precious metals or exploring how to roll over a retirement account, our guides, reviews, and insights are here to help you invest with clarity and confidence.
Why we emphasize gold IRAs
We believe gold IRAs are one of the most effective ways to invest in physical gold. They offer:
- Tax advantages
- Portfolio diversification
- Protection against inflation and market volatility
But we also know the industry can be confusing — especially for first-time investors. That’s why education is at the heart of everything we do. Our goal is to simplify the process, highlight the best gold IRA companies, and help you avoid the pitfalls of working with less reputable firms.
How we recommend companies
We only recommend companies that meet strict criteria:
- Transparent fees
- Strong customer reviews
- Solid educational resources
- A commitment to ethical practices
If we find something we don’t like, we say it. And if a company doesn’t meet our standards, we don’t include them — no matter what incentives are offered.

Disclaimer: As with any investment, gold carries risk. Prices fluctuate, and past performance does not guarantee future results. Always consult a qualified financial or tax advisor before making investment decisions. CDLPonline is an educational resource — we don’t offer personal financial advice.
