That might or might not work with the population of cities the size of OKC (or larger) roaming around trying to find food.

Not quite a zombie apocalypse, but probably not much better... :/
They will run out of gas before they get here and 99.9% couldn't catch a fish or figure out how to clean game. The attrition rate would weed out those folks.

Rustedbeef, Keep the money liquid. Gold and silver is not liquid.
What if the house of your dreams came up at a great price 2 months from now
and you had to sell your just purchased G & S ? You would take a bath and lose probably
twenty percent or more on a quick liquidation.
While a CD doesn't pay much, it is liquid.

CDs arent liquid.
Put it in a money market account. If you wanna invest longer than 5 years, find a good mutual fund.
