Me. See my bookshelf photo in my avatar. I see it as something to aspire to and measure against, but I realize it isn’t always practical. Similar to eating a perfect diet for example.

Re: Bitcoin in the VP

Which one you use ? Leveraging? USD trading currency choice. 3USL (trades in USD) instead of 3LUS (that trades in GBP) for instance. Rebalancing the FX element once/year rather than daily adjustments is inclined to be better IMO. Hello 👋🏻 Can you please help with your portfolio for European euro cu...

Re: Bitcoin in the VP

which other assets can should we add to VP ? frugal, there’s no asset that you should add. You add what you want. It’s money that you can afford to lose. Anything I buy that is not a pp asset, I consider part of the Vp. Individual stocks, silver coins. Hi 👋🏻 I don’t want to lose 🤭 PP performance in...

Best Lazy Portfolio to Pair with a Harry Browne Permanent Portfolio 🧩

Hello everyone 👋 I currently hold a Harry Browne Permanent Portfolio as my core allocation. I am now looking to add a lazy portfolio that is structurally different, meaning it relies on clearly different asset classes or return drivers, not just small variations of stocks, bonds, gold, and cash. The...

Yes, it's freeware. A few clever IT specialists put their heads together and built this fantastic tool. It's completely open source. There's even a Portuguese menu if you need it. The initial setup takes a little effort, finding data sources for the securities, but there's a very knowledgeable Engl...

Yes, no problem 😌

I have it since 2013

I prefer to check when it rises and forget when it doesn’t 😁

Maybe yahoo or google stocks can do it…

📈 Tracking the Permanent Portfolio Daily – Best Sites?

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for websites or platforms where I can track the Permanent Portfolio on a daily basis.

Ideally, I’d like something that shows clear charts or graphs to visualize its performance and variations over time.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

:)

Use a 2x leveraged stock fund for the 'stock' third. Thirds each 2x stock, gold, cash Gold in hand, safest cash (T-Bills/short term treasury). Exposure of 66% stock, 33% gold, 33% cash, 33% borrowed (by the leveraged ETF). Reduced counter-party risk, benchmark to 67/33 stock/bond and better reward,...

Re: Predict 2026 winner

If the year ended today, I'd be right! (Gold) Silver and BitCoin weren't options :) 3-5% on BITCOIN I believe is a good choice I missed 13 years of great rising :'( I'm working slowly to get there Silver got itself there :) Which % of silver you have ? Is it part of PP? Please comment

Re: Balancing Gains and Losses Every Year to Eliminate Capital Gains Tax in the Long Run

💡 The Tax Loss Harvesting Dilemma Right now, you have the chance: 📉 An asset with a $100 loss. 📈 Another investment with $100 total profit. If you sell the losing asset today, you can offset $100 of profit and reduce taxes immediately. ✅ But here’s the catch: in a few years, it’s likely that all you...

💼 Cash Management in HB-PP: To Rebalance or Not? 🔄

Hello everyone, At the moment, the cash portion within my HB-PP portfolio stands at only 10%, while the HB-PP allocation represents roughly 20% of my total assets. 💼 I am wondering whether it would make sense to rebalance the cash component within the HB-PP itself, or if maintaining this relatively ...
