No offense intended.
I’d rather have land planted in perennial crops that would provide me with food and a good water source, solar water pumps. A tractor with 500 gallons of diesel fuel in storage. Lastly, prepared neighbors that would help fend off those who would take what we all have.
I can imagine sitting around with family staring at the gold as we slowly starve as there is no food to buy.
I have all that plus gold and silver. The Road Warrior Zombie Apocalypse scenario, if it even sinks that far, will not last long. America will bounce back and precious metals will quickly replace barter items.
