“Gold. It’s still there when the power goes out or an EMP event permanently takes out all electronic devices including computers.”

Take your gold bars down to the local market and see if they will make change ...

Silly rabbit, you only bring gold for big purchases. You bring silver for smaller purchases.
That's not very right on your part.

I worked with a guy that suggested to buy stuff in preparation for a collapse. His thought was that if everything crashed, it wouldnt matter how much gold or money you had if there was nothing to buy. He recommended buying stuff like tools, guns and ammo, water purification, long term food, building materials, etc. On the other hand, if the collapse never comes, there will be one neck of an estate sale when he kicks the bucket.

That’s not what gold bars are for.

I have silver for that.
Gold coins are for buying a used car.
