Re: 2014 PP performance
That sounds like an awful lot of international & currency risk, which is meandering a bit far past the boundaries of the PP. Are you outside the US?I Shrugged wrote: I only got 5.6%. My stocks are split roughly 50-50 US-Intl. And I have a good chunk of foreign bond exposure too.
It seemed like a good idea at the time, lol.

Re: 2014 PP performance
My PP-ish did 7.1% in 2014; started 2014 at roughly 13% "Cash" (STB), 20% Gold, 25% LTT, 42% Stock (~40% of Stock Intl), with a bit of tinkering to get to this allocation, which is more PP-ish than late 2013.... (in an IRA, won't touch for many years, and doesn't include my emergency fund, which partly the diff from pure PP....)
Rebalanced at start of 2015 to be around 8/25/25/42
0.3% YTD (through 1/6/15) according to Vanguard....
Although tis early yet.
