Though, I’d add - that if you’re worried about inflation or currency risk, your better bet would be to hold blue-chip stocks. Look to Zimbabwe for an example of how this works - if inflation runs away, it’ll drive the market up. Sure, your money will all be held in inflated dollars, but it’ll keep inflating all the way up, especially if you hold the right sort of stocks. I’d say, for this sort of scenario - food producers would be a good place to start. Off the top of my head, I’d say that, at this point in time, there will be a Coca-Cola for at least as long as there’s an America.

Until they decide to tax that out of existence too. You know, so those of us with self control can buy healthcare for those with none.
