Buying Gold
Our club is exploring possibility of buying gold in order to
balance our portfolio. Here's a question that came up in
our meeting that I need some feedback on.
If the club owns say 10lbs of gold(coins or bar) and a
member wants to withdraw. The member requests to have some
of their payout in gold. How can that be equally and fairly
distributed?
Hmmmmmmmm.

Not sure what your club agreements says, but in most clubs,
the remaining members decide how to pay the withdrawing
member, cash, stock shares, in your case gold, or a
combination.

You could always buy gold etf. It trades like a stock with
