I don't, and I never have, but done properly it's not  a bad idea IMO.  I feel like I need a specific plan though.  A 5% gold position isn't going to accomplish anything materially different than holding a bit of cash if you are extremely deep in "normal" stocks otherwise.  This would actually be a good separate thread if you are up for some conversation.  I have some close friends that are deep into "Armegeddon gold and silver investing".

And I can't find a damn thing I am compelled to buy this week.   I guess that is a good thing as we recover from our recent beat down.  My AMZN is finally up as I slowly bought into the decline for months.  Feel like I am the only person in the world that had to wait until now to be up on AMZN.  

I think D and CVS are good buys right now if your looking for for some names.
