Agree. If I have gold … who will buy it? If I have a surplus of weapons and ammo, trading will ensue. ;-)

As long as women like shiny things and men like what women have, someone will buy it.

Top trade items to consider: Tobacco (in any form), sugar, coffee, ammo (by the round), liquor, toilet paper (although it is a bit bulky to store in any decent amount....lol).

So I've been looking at things such as the above to use as currency. The heck with gold. If you can't eat it, wear it, roof a house with it, or keep warm with it....it has no value.

Don’t think of the gold as helping YOU survive a crisis, but as helping your spare wealth survive a crisis.

Food, ammo, and other preparedness supplies are first priority for crisis survival.
