Vielmehr wieviel Gold ist genug...
The question is -- how much gold should one own as a percentage of one's liquid assets? This is a personal choice. For myself, I've picked a figure of 25% of liquid assets. If the dollar collapses, I'll, of course, wish I had ALL my liquid assets in gold. But I'll confess that I'm not ready to do that. I guess I'm just too used to having dollars (T-bills) in my portfolio. Furthermore, the dollar looks powerful at the moment against the euro.
The Fed's job has all along been to hide any evidence of inflation through various devious methods such as "hedonic" adjustments, "core" inflation, rent instead of home prices -- and always concentrating on current inflation while avoiding any mention of the dollar's loss of purchasing power over the years.
To his shame, Alan Greenspan has gone along with this nonsense. This has caused me to lose all respect for him. In fact, at one point Greenspan, when questioned, claimed that the Fed, in its "anti-inflation" stance, has acted as if the dollar was still backed by gold. What utter rubbish. Alan, it's time to retire....
