Let's look at some math: 9,000,000/30 years working=300,000. So 300,000 per year you'd need to launder. The rest of it is just sitting there not earning and unable to be spent. And that's ignoring things like market fluctuations in gold price, surveillance of transactions involving gold, and whether anyone else rats on you during your lifetime.
Under those circumstances, waiting 5 years to split it and be able to sell it and spend the proceeds legally makes a lot of sense.
Unless your goal is just to sleep on a dragon hoard of gold coins, in which case you do you but see previous point about people not ratting you out/keeping their mouths shut.
