There are others that think that a system collapse is coming that will make great depression look pale by comparison.

I'm afraid of that too.

Hard to say. But if the Central Banks are buying gold, it might not be a bad idea to buy some if one has some money to spare. I tend to buy food, and other necessities that will likely be more expensive if another crisis hits.

I'm thinking of adding a couple more kWs of solar power; maybe an underground bunker. ;)

LOL. Me too. All I have right now is portable solar power for recharging small electronics - good for our typical power outages, but not long term.
