A full pantry is the best savings account.

“A full pantry is the best savings account”

Well said. Add a good water filtration sysem, a hand crank grain mill and about 500 lbs of grains, rice and beans. Its going to be a rough ride.

A full pantry is what the cash is for — if people are still buying DVDs, HDTVs, and non-neccessary items, all the while going into debt and spending all the paycheck on paying credit card bills — they are going to get crushed.

Freedom from the debt cycle means having the cash on hand to buy the needed survival items. Big cash on hand may mean the ability to buy something of real value at depression prices — and coming out the other side in great shape.

Planning on going into and coming out of the depression with a big pile of cash may be financial foolishness. It's definitely going to be worth much less.

>A full pantry is the best savings account.

And a full magazine is the best insurance for it.

Sound advice for all of us.
