    Thanks for the plug Kevin. Just been analysing gold priced in GBP for a post tomorrow. Up 11%. At that rate won’t be long before rebalancing considerations will have to be made.

    @Financial Cents
    Thanks! I’m also looking forward to your next posts.

    @RetirementInvestingToday
    I also recently rebalanced in a way since I sold some off at the peak; If I calculated today I think I’d be at around 6% so somewhat less than my 10% target. I’m ok with that for now until I have some more liquidity again.

    @Barb Friedberg
    Best of luck to you too, I’m looking forward to reading more from you.

    @Forest
    No problem, I had a busier week than usual myself so didn’t read as much nor get as much written as I wanted to. I think this week will be better, but the summer vacations are starting too, so I will have to see!

    Thanks for stopping by, guys, I appreciate it. Looking forward to reading more!
