There ARE a bunch of sick, greedy, sad people who are trying to get the maximum amount of control over the rest of us, through globalized control of currency, credit, and government. They are willing, we can see, to overthrow or do away with those who stand in the way of their goals. Hence, all the hub-bub in the middle east right now. But, think about it. Rather than view you as someone on whom "a bullet would be extravagant", don't you think they prefer to keep you involved in their economic machine and make money off of you? Their worst problem is this psychotic need for more and more money. How many steaks can one man even eat in a lifetime? They never stop wanting more. It's just like an alcoholic for whom one drink is too many and a thousand are not enough. And...best of all. They will soon turn on each other, and their scheme of globalization will go down harder than the Eurozone. Like a cancer, it will eat itself from the inside out. No worries...relax. |

Where is the first place you are going to think of looking for food ? Yes, you are correct farms ! You may find that you do all the work and someone comes along and harvests for you unless you are armed to the teeth and can stop gangs of hungry people who will risk their lives for food because they will be very hungry.... Learn to hunt and learn what nature has to offer before sticking your own roots in the ground ! |

Most importantly is to be able to move from one place to another and not to be too upset if you lose a hideout, be prepared for the worse because life usually gives you worse than that... |

I think America is very close to the meltdown, people really need to get real and think really hard about the reality of human greed and cruelty, I live in one of the safest places on Earth but many here really feel that good times are not going to be with us for long... And THAT is the very reason to have .999 copper bullion rounds! They are coins and a FRACTION of the cost of silver. When you go to batter just offer the copper and say that is ALL that you have! That is why I picked up a bunch of rolls of .999 copper coins. Copper is cheap today but after TSHF the price will rocket straight up! I got mine here, just scroll down to see the info: [link to phoenixrisingradio.net] This does not look even remotely profitable. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 11112723 United States 02/19/2012 10:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I would say gold, the thing is that silver is too bulky, if you needed to move in a hurry getting $7000 of silver in your pocket is just not going to happen, whereas with gold you just put it in your pocket and your away... Quoting: 1i I bought some of this I think if you have gold and you don't want to part with it all then having little bits you can snap off like a chocolate bar is the best [link to www.goldenasset.co] This is the second time I have promoted this gold today but I'm still well impressed, what a bloody great idea, trust the Swiss to treat gold like chocolate :) $7,000 of silver is only 200 ounces. That's not that big. Two ounces of gold and 100 ounces of silver might be a good split. Silver has more upside because silver is being used up faster than it is being mined. |

You couldn't access an ATM or go to a store to buy ANYTHING. At that point, clean water, food, gasoline, diesel, warm clothing, etc. would be WAY more valuable than any type of money. If I had plenty of water, I would certainly barter with someone who could give me food, or other supplies, but what the hell would I do with a pocket full of nickels? I can't use them at a store, and if this actually happened, people would soon realize their coins aren't doing them any good, and they are getting very thirsty and hungry.... |
