Mr D. I have in my portfolio anything that is *managed by someone else*,

 TNP, what do you mean by "managed by someone else"?
Not managed by you? Not managed by an investor-appointed board?
 

I mean these days I invest in managed funds, not stocks shares and bonds directly.
Curiously physical gold is over time a very good hedge against inflation.
£10,000 purchased by someone I know in 2005 seems to be worth about £80,000 now...

And D, what are "k8s"?
I know about 8-Ks, but in the context, that is not what it is.
And my sister-in-law signs her mail as "K8"(for Kate), but I don't think
that's it, either.

I can't understanbd that either.
