hello ep, i am at current mark-to-market
9.3% gold/platinum physical/paper
1.3% gold/platinum/silver mines
0.4% uranium mines
4% energy
... so, it is almost as if the gold allocation is what it is because the allocation should not be in anything else

... highest physical allocation was 14+%

... so, you see, i am simply marking time, and realize that the dark interregnum is long, and the process of collapse is barely noticeable

the vast majority of the folks i hangout with do not own any gold, very few are curious about the process/mechanism of buying gold, and almost none can relate to the role of gold in history (never mind monetary history)

for the few with gold, 1-2 has a lot, in absolute sums

when, not if, i go to 50% allocation, we would be smack dab in the middle of the valley of death, the dark interregnum between one collapsing monetary empire and another rising economic domain, and that time is not yet

I strongly agree with ...

<<try to make some money somewhere else that does not strongly correlate with the GUDD or GDDU game>> ...

and figure energy and real estate and business are the approaches and pathways

... so as to buy more gold/silver/uranium, without disturbing the allocation %

chugs, j
