About Andy Schectman

Andy Schectman, President and Owner of Miles Franklin, has spent more than three decades helping clients discover the stability and security that precious metals can offer. Before founding the company in 1989, Andy began his career as a Licensed Financial Planner, focusing on Swiss Franc investments and alternative asset strategies. That foundation led to a lifetime commitment to offering real solutions for preserving wealth.

Under Andy’s leadership, Miles Franklin has surpassed $11 billion in sales—without a single formal customer complaint—thanks to his dedication to ethical business practices, transparency, and customer-first service.

Andy doesn’t see gold and silver as mere investments—they are timeless forms of wealth that have endured through every major financial crisis, from global wars to inflationary collapses. He believes wealth should not just be accumulated but preserved and passed on, which is why he emphasizes education and long-term thinking in every client interaction.

Today, Andy is a recognized voice in the conversation around global finance, frequently sharing insights into the rise of BRICS, the future of the petrodollar, and the increasing relevance of precious metals in central bank strategy.

From Our Partners

Silver Slayer

"Andy took me under his wing, showed me the ropes and gave me the confidence I needed to take my career to the next level. He's a man of his word and no matter how busy his day is, will always make time to be there for you. Andy's best characteristic (in my opinion) is how he sees himself as equal to everyone, even though we all look up to him. There truly isn't a fake bone in that man's body, and I'm honored to be a part of his team."

Under Valued Assets

"It is one of the great blessings and highlights of my business career to have a relationship with Andy Schectman and Miles Franklin. I began watching Andy on YouTube with Chris Marcus on the Arcadia Economics' YouTube Channel in 2020. Andy has perhaps the greatest combination of an understanding of the big picture of what's going on in the global economy today and the ability to communicate that picture in a simplified form in a way that anyone can understand. Andy's reputation is second to none in the precious metals' industry as Miles Franklin has done over 9 billion in sales and not one customer complaint. In dealing with him and his company, you can see why that is. Despite Andy and Miles Franklin's great success, he is just getting started."

Economic Ninja

"Integrity is the first word that comes to mind when talking about Andy Schectman. He is straightforward, honest and always willing to discuss new business ideas. Even though he is an incredibly busy man and under high demand, he always finds the time to return a call. His economic and geopolitical knowledge is extensive and his passion for sharing it is appreciated. It is a pleasure to work with him."

Liberty & Finance

"Since I was introduced to Miles Franklin CEO Andy Schectman by Rick Rule (then CEO of Sprott Asset Management,) I have had the opportunity to serve as a licensed independent external broker for Miles Franklin for 4-1/2 years and the privilege to work under Andy’s training, direction, and partnership this entire time. In addition, Andy has been an anchor guest every week for our “Weekly Market Update” to our highly engaged and rapidly growing audience of viewers and subscribers on our Liberty and Finance channel. As a father of 5 and grandfather of 14, family means a great deal to me, and perhaps the most confirming endorsement that I and my sons have landed in the right place teaming up with Miles Franklin has come from meeting Andy’s (and his father David Schectman’s) long-time clients spanning multiple decades, while attending in-person conferences at the Miles Franklin booth. I believe that you can learn a lot about a person by the long-term relationships they have formed, and it has been a consistent pleasure and validation that we are in the right place with Miles Franklin, dealing with an ethical family-owned business which consistently strives to provide personalized, private, expert service to real people as clients. Our subscribers and viewers also are passionately devoted to Andy’s weekly visits with us, since they recognize in him a genuine, sincerely committed real person, and a servant who is striving to share his studied insights with his fellow men and women, for our common good through turbulent times."

In it to Win It

"I first met Andy 3 years ago when I was new to the financial media space. I knew I was missing something when it came to my investments and portfolio, but I didn't know what. Andy spent 2 hours on a Saturday recording a podcast with my buddy and I, educating us on the difference between currency and sound money. He outlined what was happening around the world with de-dollarization, and the shift of power from the West to the East. I got a real education that day, a lesson that you would never find in any government school system. I now have 6.5% of my net worth in precious metals, and 25% of my portfolio are precious metals stocks. I have never slept better at night. I have since taught that lesson to my family and close friends. And I teach it on my show, every time I press record. Thank you Andy, keep up the good work. You are making more of a difference than you will ever know."

Golden Jackass

"My interaction with Miles Franklin has been uniformly positive, with recommendations for client sales having been made for a few years. Clients have steadily reported being treated fairly and with respect, the service and assistance prompt and professional. It is easily stated that Miles Franklin is the standard of excellence in the United States for precious metals sales. In the last several months, it has been my distinct pleasure to have met the CEO AndyS. We met with a joint interview, then later with a couple long conversations with our mutual friend Chris Marcus of Arcadia Economics. My friendship with ChrisM goes back several years. However, this warrants mention. AndyS in my firm opinion is one of the top precious metals analysts and to me, the #1 source of detailed market information for strategic comprehension of the Gold & Silver market. It is extremely complex, and at the center of the current Paradigm Shift from USTreasury Bonds to Gold bullion. He has taught me more than five other analysts combined. His detailed knowledge of inner workings and multiple nations for their involvement is impressive, instructive, and highly useful. Andy and Chris make a potent team, since private conversations with Chris have benefitted me in a similar manner."

Stacking Surfer

"I love Andy’s charisma, energy, and passion for sharing not only his personal stacking story but where he sees the macro, micro, and political economic cycles heading. I’ve heard him described as the time traveler. I love that. When I found out he was speaking at the silver symposium in Las Vegas last year, I booked a room and flight just to meet him in person. Not only was it awesome to hear him in person from the front row but after his speech he spent an hour chatting. I was so impressed that he would take the time to do so. At the end of our conversation, he agreed to come on my channel. The rest is history. Now Andy is a regular on my channel and the star of my most popular video with over 57,000 views. That huge for a new channel. Thank you Andy for being such a great guest, mentor, and friend. You truly are a blessing to the precious metals community."

Arcadia

"I’ve been doing business with Miles Franklin since 2018 when I first met Andy Schectman. In the time since it’s been really helpful to have a precious metals dealer where I know I can get great service and pricing, and it’s also been a pleasure to get to know Andy better over the years. I’ve purchased silver from Andy on multiple occasions. And at one point when I unfortunately had to sell some metal, he personally took the time to walk me through the entire process and made it easy. In the time since then it’s also been a blessing to get to know Andy better, and eventually begin doing podcasts with him about the precious metals markets. He’s a popular guest on our show, and provides a lot of valuable information that people have a hard time finding elsewhere. Our audience always enjoys hearing from him, and as I’ve asked some of our viewers why they choose to buy their metals from Miles Franklin, the most common response I get is that they simply ‘like and trust Andy.’ He’s someone that I look up to as a mentor, and in addition to talking about gold and silver, I’ve also enjoyed our conversations about life, business, and friendship. I’m happy for the success of his business, and grateful to have a place that I can recommend to my audience when they want to know where to buy gold or silver from. So if people are looking for a place where they can safely buy gold and silver, know that they will get what they paid for, and that they’re dealing with a business the genuinely cares about their clients, I recommend Andy Schectman of Miles Franklin."

Business Game Changers

"I have had the pleasure of working with Andy Schectman and Miles Franklin as a trusted partner for almost a decade. His professionalism and unparalleled knowledge of the global economic world puts him in a category of his own. My listeners have had only positive experiences with Miles Franklin, not a single complaint in over a decade! As a former business owner, I can tell you first hand that it’s an unheard of accomplishment."

Road to Roota

"I have had the pleasure of working with Andy and Miles Franklin for more than a decade and after thousands of RoadtoRoota customers used his services when buying or selling precious metals, I have never heard one complaint. Not one! Only very high praise which is usually very hard to come by in this industry. But what I like most about Andy is that he is as sound of an individual as he is a businessman!"

CapitalCosm

"Whether it's on or off camera, Andy is the same genuine person you see on my channel and so many others. His passion for gold, silver, and sound money, in general, is as genuine as it gets. Andy has the gift of the silver tongue, which only makes his wisdom on current events, economics, and how it all ties into gold even more golden. I've learned a lot from having him on, and see him as a stand up guy for my audience to not only transact in precious metals with, but, most importantly, learn from."

Grow Network

"I've purchased precious metals from Andy Scheckman and Miles Franklin many times. I love the fast delivery, quality coins, discreet and secure packaging. Please buy silver from them while it is available at these crazy low prices. You'll be very glad you did."

Bill Holter

"I have been affiliated with Miles Franklin since 2012. At first, I wrote several times per week and almost immediately started brokering deals through MF. Originally, I was attracted to partner with them as I had met both David and Andy Schectman and knew they had very similar mindsets for markets and the world in general. Prior, I worked as a stockbroker for 23 years, 12 of which as a branch manager, and was never involved in any type of legal action, arbitration, nor settlement. Neither were any of my brokers. This, has been my proudest moment in business and nearly an impossibility in today's litigious world. I am a "handshake" guy, there is nothing more important to me than my good word, I strive to business with the same mindset. I found to my delight that David and Andy were very similar. If they told you something, anything, they stuck by their word, always! Maybe my best God given talent is the ability to sniff out bullshit? There has never been any in my dealings with Andy, ever. This to me is MORE IMPORTANT than anything else for me to clear client business through Miles Franklin, honesty. I could clear my business nearly anywhere with multiple dealers but I choose to clear through Miles Franklin as I know they are honest and treat my clients with respect, honesty, and fabulous customer service. Another great aspect to clearing through MF is the ease at which it is done. Andy has made the process very simple and streamlined, I place an order and know that all of the behind the scenes logistics are taken care of. As a broker, I could not ask for any more than Miles Franklin offers me. Fantastic execution and customer service, fair pricing and availability of product with the ability to handle monster trades, and good payout to the broker with an honest firm!"

Money Preservation Strategies

"I have been working with Andy Schectman and his staff at Miles Franklin as an affiliate broker for Gold and Silver sales for the last year. My clients are happy with Miles Franklin regarding the pricing, quality, and execution of their precious metals orders. Additionally, Andy Schectman is one of the Nation's preeminent experts in Geo-Political and Financial events affecting the devaluation of the US Dollar. Andy provides a solution to mitigate this US Dollar currency risk by using precious metals to help his clients retain their wealth."
