Hi, long time reader.
I've finally managed some savings and would like to keep them safe, maybe even with a little growth through the bumpy plateau I believe the next 5 years will be
I'm an Australian. I've come across a couple portfolio recommendations that I'd like to go with but they all list US stocks/funds/etfs:
1st portfolio:

Materials XLB 17.5%
Precious Metals GDX 17.5%
Commodities: 30%
Crude Oil USL or XOP15%
Gol GLD 10%
Silver SLV 5%
2nd portfolio: (as from will martin at peakoilproof.com)
Country ETFs - 50%
Australia - 10% - EWA
Brazil - 10% - EWZ
Canada - 10% - EWC
