Seeing lots of 2020 investment recaps. My personal portfolio for the last nine years has been roughly 24% stocks, 67% bonds and 9% gold leveraged to 1.8x — stocks are MSCI world, bonds are a mix of US, UK and Euro govt/corp.

No currency hedge. Base currency is sterling and having some USD/EUR exposure helps in downturns and also when the UK does something really dumb. Gold partially hedges USD exposure, gives commodity exposure and acts as inflation hedge.

Cost of leverage has varied but generally about 1% above sterling risk free rate. Will post more details on rationale and performance later, short version for 2020 is that performance was good though not outstanding.

Seems similar to @breakingthemark though with more bonds and more leverage.
