Basically, yes. Any asset that is not printed, fiat government money will tend to hold value
Over last decade, I had to travel regularly to Argentina for business. I met a beekeeper there who keeps his savings - in honey. He harvests his crop, and keeps it in his warehouse. Because its a commodity than can be exported, its priced in US dollars and the Argentine peso was continuously inflating, he only sells some and converts it to local currency when he has an immediate expense - kids' school fees, needs repairs on truck, etc...and this is how he operates, until the new crop harvest replenishes his "wealth."
Exactly, and the honey solution is actually way better than Gold or Silver because it has an intrinsic value to everyone. Gold and Silver requires a bit more of a civil structure to have a sustainable value.
In the 1970’s I knew a family that had huge amounts of household items in the garage. Inflation was pretty steep at the time. The dad was a union plumber, wife was stay-at-home mom. One child in college.
Lots of dish soap, bar soap, laundry detergent. Can’t remember what else.
But look at it this way: People will always need toilet paper. (A year’s supply for one person will take up a few cubic feet.)
