This is a good post for a vanity. I only disagree with the gold and silver part -they will not help when this thing collapses. Matches, food, water, alcohol, and ammo are the commodities to stockpile for currency replacement.
Matches can be like change. The rest are like various denominations of bills.
You might be right about this. I suppose there is no reason it couldn't be both.
IMHO I think EVERONE should view PM’s as an insurance policy....you don't have to invest your life savings in it...its just a hedge against inflation or an economic collapse....(which seems an inevitable result to most here) Had you bought your "insurance policy" just 4 short yrs ago, it would be the best investment you could have made
From a historical perspective..the charts don't lie!

I agree the other commodities are good but a silver dollar in your pocket will never hurt you in times of trouble...
