Default Re: Buying Gold / Silver / Precious Metals

As I said:

"Gold/Precious Metals are only appropriate in small quantity as a diversifier(if at all)"

Yes, I am agreeing with you.

Asset A returns ~10% per year
Asset B returns ~4% per year

Which does one invest in? The answer isn't just "ZOMG, 100% A"

One needs to analyze the correlations, risks, and personal ability to accept these risks in order to make a decision.
