Friend, wish I could tell you the best way going forward.
I’m not a big believer in the guns and gold strategy. At some point the government will recall gold just like FDR did. Its also preparing for just one type of event when many others are more likely.
Being mobile and flexible and learning to live on less, much less is probably more realistic.
If we keep going down this road, we will see something like the Collapse of the Soviet Union or what South American countries have gone through periodically.
Best of luck and pray for our country.
Sage words of advice, thank you. I suppose it's a real possibility that what we acquire can be stripped away by force. My wife is Chinese-American, born here. Her mother came from a wealthy family in China, until the communists took over and she fled in the 1940s with nothing. My wife's father was Chinese-American and a U.S. soldier when they married. They had nothing yet became prosperous in the U.S. So even if wealth is stripped away, there is hope of starting over.
