I commend you on taking actions! However I too am leery about 3rd parties holding gold for me. If I have actual gold and put it in a safety deposit box in the bank down the street, should I trust 100% that I will always have access to it? I think there is a percentage of trust involved and everyone has their number. My trust is probably 75% but that number is subject to change. So I guess bottom line is to not to put all your eggs in one basket. But I do see value in what you did! Thanks for the article!
