I agree with post 19. When times get really bad, ammo, canned meat, canned vegetables and medical supplies will be better trade goods than gold. You can use ammo to protect your family and food for survival. Gold is way down on the list of necessities when tough times come. Keep a well stocked larder of food that has long good by dates and rotate it through use. A case of good booze on hand is never a bad idea too.

You and I are of the same mind.

ammo
canned no-perishables
plenty of Good- I say again - Good booze.

good booze is a great trade commodity (as well as a pleasant anesthetic when required)

Long, short. With ammo I can get all the gold I want.
