I am strongly considering (and will likely do this if I get enough support/egging-on/cheerleading) going through the process of getting a 100 oz gold bar via the COMEX futures process (with a commodity broker I imagine). To save me a bit of time, I re-post the below that I put up at Zero Hedge (lightly edited to reflect I am putting this up here) a little while ago:
I have a project that I will undertake with sufficient "moral support". It will take some time, but I think this would be very educational and probably of great interest to the Zero Hedge [pmbug.com] community.
I am going to start researching what it would take for me to get delivery of a COMEX 100 oz gold bar via the futures process (via a commodity broker). I would be starting at "Ground Zero" (knowing almost nothing), so this will take some time for me to set up.
I will only do this if I get a lot of "moral support" (comments at [pmbug] do not count -- too easy), these would be by email or better by comment at my blog. I can do this with my own money, although it would require substantial shuffling around of assets (including selling some of my physical gold now). I do not ask or want anyone else's money! Only your encouragement as well as suggestions and recommendations (a cooperative commodity broker for example).
If I do NOT get support for this effort, I will likely NOT do this.
Parallel (independent and separate) efforts are encouraged! If any of you have the means and desire to test COMEX, please do get in touch. I especially ask any of my "virtual friends" (anyone who has been decent to me) to get in touch with me, particularly if you know something of the process or would to undertake a similar action!
Gold, bitchez! Real gold!
Join me! Or egg me on!
