We have seen thishappen already:
No institution is safe for all can be closed by decree, including credit unions. This is true of safe deposit boxes as well.

The problem is the amount of cash dollars to get you through 3 months today will be quite insufficient to get you through 3 months of even a “short-term disruption” as prices will skyrocket. We’ve all seen how gas prices can double overnight. Multiply that by all products as fuel prices dictate all consumer prices and delivery dates.

When only cash is exchanged, house payments and car payments should be ignored. For three months of shut down, nothing will happen to the things on payment plans. The cash in reserve is strictly for immediate needs like fuel and food. ... We should already have the ammo and tools to use it in.

Yah. Better to have food and water on hand. Put that cash to work now. Food, water, TP, rubber gloves, and so on.

To: bgill
one point the prices skyrocket when there is plenty of money(velocity) and that is not true when banks are locked down. I do believe their is a short term when cash is king...

I think it goes without saying that your residence should be geared up with necessities, entertainment, food and beverages enough so that as you used them your day-to-day expenses would be minimal.

Yes, we had c-notes in our emergency cash and exchanged them for $20’s. We probably need to go lower bills than that. Fives or ones.

a case of half pint Kentucky Deluxe burbon will be worth their weight in gold. And the great thing is, unopened bourbon lasts forever. Good for a year once opened.
If there was a way to indefinitely preserve tobacco, I would lay in a few cases of cigarettes. That would be a great barter item under that scenario.
You want to seriously be ready for barter: liquor, tobacco and toilet paper. With those things you can trade for anything. Sex will be very easy to come by if you are well stocked with these 3 things.
