    If you have any leftover wealth after buying food, water, and ammo, then you want to invest it in gold and silver. Look at history before you disregard gold and silver. Those with gold and silver still have their money after the chaos is over.

    Lesson One: What worked hundreds of years ago, when people lived on plantations, rode horses into town to buy goods, and could only communicate by post, does not necessarily apply today. Lesson Two: What worked hundreds of years ago.... does not necessarily apply today. Should I repeat it again?

    Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in?

        Then hold on to your paper then. Quite frankly, I don't care about you, I only care about real Americans.

            Yeah, you stock up on beer, cigs, and toilet paper. What do cigs cost in NY now? 11 bucks a pack? :rolleyes:

              No idea. I don't smoke. But a lot of people do, and would be very likely to trade something for a pack after the system collapses.

                I don't disagree with you. But if you have any savings after investing in supplies, and if you want to come out ahead of everyone else when things start to recover, gold and silver is your best bet.

                  Are you braindead? The point I'm making is that things like beer and cigarettes will make better currency than gold or silver if things really collapse, because people will be more willing to trade for things like that, than for shiny rocks.

                    You just don't get it. You think that a severe depression means the end of the world? I said if you have any savings after investing in supplies, then you want to invest in gold and silver because once things recover, you will have your savings plus some. Gold and silver is a hedge against inflation. Even in the worse of situations such as that of Zymbabwe's hyperinflation, they had to trade in gold if they wanted anything. People mined gold dust from the rivers, and that was the only acceptable currency for food, fuel, tools, and other supplies. Got it?

                      People will pay more For cigarettes and beer too When they need their fix If the dollar dies It will take a lot of time 'fore we're back on track You should focus more On surviving until then Gold won't matter much On the other hand Go ahead and stockpile gold We'll laugh at your corpse This is getting dull Even typing in haikus Still not worth the time I'm going to sleep Some of us have jobs, you know Kind of makes you think You don't have a job Why should we listen to you On money issues? That's like listening To a parapolegic's Advice on biking

                        And how much gold and silver do you have? And that shiny stuff you have in the kitchen drawer doesn't count because the silverware you have isn't.

                        Once you agree to clans, tribes, governments...you've opted for socialism. The rest is just details.

                          No I think its you that just doesnt get it, yes gold and silver may be desirable during the recovery phase, however its like monopoly, if you start a game with one player with all the cash and one with all the property you will find the property wins eery time, so it is with a colapse, all your gold is only useful if someone will sell you goods for it, if the colapse is bad enough for the dollar to be worthless it may just as likely mean that gold/silver is also worthless and goods worth trading will be the defacto currency, if you have those then you will be able to amasss the gold from overcharging morons like you who have a stack of gold and no food

                          You cant outrun the world, but there is no harm in getting a head start

                                that might strong words from a pizza delivery boy, I doubt even your mother gives a sh*t about you and wishes she had been sterilized. as for being an Idiot, I like most here make a living from programming, you however make a living by delivering pizza (and cannot even keep down that kind of job). so who is the idiot. The elite of this world may not give a damn about what I think but that compares with them dot giving a damn that you even exist. I can assure you of one certain fact in this world, if they decide to impliement these wild theories of yours then you as an the lowest of the low will be the first to be removed from the gene pool, it is only the welfare state you hate so much that has stopped nature already providing this service

                                  Anyone can program a computer these days. You are damn stupid, and I am glad that by 2018-2020, you will no longer be permitted to live in a regular house without paying exorbitantly high periodic fees. By 2020, The nations in the EU will no longer premit the construction of regular homes as we know them now, instead you will live in zero carbon super compact apartment cubes. Suffer.

                                    Anyone can program a computer these days. You are damn stupid, and I am glad that by 2018-2020, you will no longer be permitted to live in a regular house without paying exorbitantly high periodic fees. By 2020, The nations in the EU will no longer premit the construction of regular homes as we know them now, instead you will live in zero carbon super compact apartment cubes. Suffer.

                                    the first comment shows exactly how little you know about programming, if anyone can do it why are you a pizza deliverly boy? why is noone paying you good money to program?, possibly because you are a brain dead doper with the social skills of a dead woodchuck as for the rest i cannot comment because I havent read that piece of scifi, but from this side it would be more likely that Mr O will have you in your lovely cubes well before us ( assuming that China hasnt evicted you all from North America for non payment of debts)

                                    You cant outrun the world, but there is no harm in getting a head start
