Does anyone really think gold and silver will matter when the SHTF? People will trade for USEFUL things like food, fire starters, tools, guns, ammo, etc. If there is a shortage of food, who is going to take gold or silver in exchange for food? Go read SHTFblog.com. It is a blog about a family that survied in Croatia during all the crap that went on there in the 90's. BRUTAL. Money and Gold were not what got people by. The main "currency" was whatever people needed to survive. Liquor, toilet paper, tampons, maxi-pads, knives, tarps, nails, hammers, saws, axes, flints, knife-sharpeners, shampoo, soap, bleach, medicines, ect. THAT will be the currency after SHTF. I feel sorry for the libtards that don't own guns. They will learn the error of their ways if SHTF happens.
For sure. I LOL at those that think anything other than barter goods will be used for currency.
The current glut of gold sellers on the TV are only reaping profit from the higher prices that are currently in place. You never hear these advertizements when gold prices go down.
I've spent my time in 3rd world country's. Like you said, they don't have a clue about what gold is as far as currency.
I'll give you a chicken for that box of ammo is more like it.
