[QUOTE="Govt Mule, post: 2088688, member: 73667"]I understand your position, although I have "contra" thoughts. Your decision should be based entirely on your feelings/objectives. You seem to genuinely value portability. If this is the case, think beyond gold. Gems are much more portable than a "couple of slabs", they can be sewn into your clothing.
