Re: Coronavirus General Discussion
Oh well.......
More of the same. State of Emergency extended until Christmas 2021 in Victoria.
But children will get 1/2 price fines - that's positive

Re: Whatever happened to BLM and ANTIFA?
Well in Australia BLM vanished.
Think they were a Rent-a-Crowd group.

Re: US version of a Goldsmith PP?
And here are the individual components of the US Goldsmith PP.
Wouldn't think the PP would have so little volatility after looking at Gold alone

Re: Tyler hits it out of the park (again)
Thanks Kevin, It was an interesting read. Reminded my a a Marc Faber talk I watched yesterday. He said the biggest mistake of his life was thinking that his opinion mattered, and said the most important thing was how you react to market changes, He also stated the it was not possible to accurately p...

Re: Gold Defensive Strategy
The purpose of my physical gold VP is not to make any money; it is to avoid losing a lot if stocks, bonds and the USD tanks. I do think we are in for a serious reckoning in the next year or so. Silver, Bitcoin and Gamestop are something for 20 year olds to speculate on. I am retired and cannot affo...

Looks like Anthony Deden agrees with you. He's over 50% in Gold and Gold Shares.dopplerdave wrote: ↑Sun Feb 21, 2021 9:24 am
Overall, this puts me 62.5% into gold - a highly defensive strategy. Is anyone else having the same thoughts?

And this is the addendum for the Australian edition. Must say I was a little surprised to read this :o 1. Consider leaving the country 2. Your retirement fund will be taxed at a MUCH higher rate. Not sure how the recommendation to hold gold/wine/cryptos would obviate the taxation risk. Would still h...

Re: Math is cis-heteronormative racism!
Even the Mises Institute is discussing this
https://mises.org/wire/math-racist-does-not-compute
And the Government is racist because it does not grant the vote to my Collie dogs
(Actually I think they can judge character better than most people)

Re: How does the G-Fund Work?
So my question is whether it works as Cash, LT Bonds, or something else? The G fund consists of short term treasuries which is used as a substitute for cash. So your allocation is 25% Gold, 50% Shares, 20% Cash, 5% Bonds (EDV) Perhaps consider increasing your Bond allocation if you wish to implemen...
