hello pezz, today's report:

bought 50% of the physical platinum off of one friend who is returning from hong kong to europe at spot as he would have to pay vat if brought the metal back to europe. he is taking his gold with him as gold attracts not vat. another friend bought the other 50% of his pt holdings.

re <<All net worth be in thin speculative stuff minus enuff cash to live for 6 months>>

... (i) be careful from may 1st onward. it is not that i believe in calendar-based voodoo investing, but i remember how nice it was or would have been to sell in may and go away, 2009 excepted when i loaded up on gdx and its derivatives.

(ii) cash for six months - am thinking one should have enough silver to last for six months.

i figure worst comes to be, au and pt may not be manageable for grocery purchases as their value would be too large, say ten troy ozs for one house.

have readied balinese gazebo (less the sea scape) outside of my office so that sustenance can be engaged with once prepped on the grill.

who needs an ocean view when one can stare at the bbq grill all day everyday.



cheers, tj
