Permanent Portfolio 25% Gold Allocation FAQ
2 years ago
This FAQ will be updated from time to time. I didn’t think it would be as involved to write as the other FAQs on Stocks, Bonds and Cash. What I found though is that there is just so much misconception about gold (both pro and con) that it needs a lot more detail. This FAQ is huge. It probably needs to be broken out. But I figured I’d post it all now because it’s been months since I promised it and if I wait until it is “done” then it could be many more months.
So this is a work in progress and will be updated as I get around to it.
