Yes, those transaction costs!
I've always thought what I purchased would be for retirement or to pass on to family. But with the way things are heading, I don't think the hoard will make it that far (I'm in my late 40's). I think the system will have collapsed before then and I'll have to tap into it. What shape or form things take after the collapse, only God knows.
What started me thinking about rebalancing it was I talking to a coin store owner who heavily perferred 90% over 40.
I am a hoarder not a seller. But with the fluctuations in price we have seen, it's tempting to take a small portion and try make a profit and buy more on a dip.
I would, like you rexmerdinus, like to get to more of an even split between bullion and 90/40. That would seem to make sense.
