Board of Directors and Shareholders
Permanent Portfolio Family of Funds, Inc.
In planning and performing our audits of the financial statements of Permanent
Portfolio Family of Funds, Inc. (comprising, respectively, the Permanent
Portfolio, the Treasury Bill Portfolio, the Versatile Bond Portfolio and the
Aggressive Growth Portfolio) for the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997, we
considered its internal control structure, including procedures for safeguarding
securities, in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of
expressing our opinion on the financial statements and to comply with the
requirements of Form N-SAR, not to provide assurance on the internal control
structure.
The management of Permanent Portfolio Family of Funds, Inc. is responsible for
establishing and maintaining an internal control structure. In fulfilling this
responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the
expected benefits and related costs of internal control structure policies and
procedures. Two of the objectives of an internal control structure are to
provide management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are
safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition and that
transactions are executed in accordance with management's authorization and
recorded properly to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.
Because of inherent limitations in any internal control structure, errors or
irregularities may occur and not be detected. Also, projection of any evaluation
of the structure to future periods is subject to the risk that it may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the effectiveness of the
design and operation may deteriorate.
Our consideration of the internal control structure would not necessarily
disclose all matters in the internal control structure that might be material
weaknesses under standards established by the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants. A material weakness is a condition in which the design or
operation of the specific internal control structure elements does not reduce to
a relatively low level the risk that errors or irregularities in amounts that
would be material in relation to the financial statements being audited may
occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal
course of performing their assigned functions. However, we noted no matters
involving the internal control structure, including procedures for safeguarding
securities, that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined above as of
January 31, 1997.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of management and the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

Exhibit 77b
Legal Proceedings
Following a routine examination of the Permanent Portfolio Family of Funds, Inc.
(the "Fund") in 1991, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission")
instituted public administrative and cease-and-desist proceedings on January 13,
1997, to determine the truth of allegations by the Commission's Division of
Enforcement (the "Division") that World Money Managers and World Money
Securities, Inc., the Fund's investment adviser and a wholly owned investment of
the Permanent Portfolio, respectively, and two of the Fund's directors and
officers, Terry Coxon and Alan Sergy (collectively, the "Respondents"), violated
certain provisions of federal securities laws in fiscal years 1990 through 1992.
The allegations include the following: that World Money Managers received
excessive reimbursements under the Fund's Marketing and Distribution Plan (the
"Marketing Plan") during fiscal years ended January 31, 1990 and 1991; that
during fiscal years 1990 through 1992, the Fund's Board of Directors did not
meet at the end of each quarter to review the expenses incurred under the
Marketing Plan and that the reports thereon contained insufficient detail; that
from August 1990 through July 1992, the Fund's Board of Directors did not
include the proportion of disinterested directors as required by the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended; and in April 1990, the Permanent Portfolio
acquired a "call option" prohibited by the Fund's fundamental investment
policies and managed the investment for the advantage of a client of an officer
of the Fund. No charges have been made against the Fund. The Respondents have
denied all of the allegations of the Division and are contesting the
proceedings.
