I saw Ferfal’s blog before - it is excellent. Full of useful tips. For example - people buy gold, but how is gold bar going to help you when SHTF? Better to have small pieces, like links on a necklace, that are more easily used as cash

Thanks for reposting it.

Buy junk silver as it will be the day to day exchange if the SHTF. Also buy fractional gold; 1/10th oz. Folks who plan ahead now will get through the bad times. Just being ready for anything is a good feeling. Maybe it will never happen so then you can eat up your survival food over time.

In a barter economy I will stick to pint and half-pint bottles of whiskey and .22 ammo.
