If you can afford a pound of gold right now, you can afford a great many pounds of bacon.RossA wrote:If the a problem arises, and society has gone to ****, I would rather trade for your pound of bacon than for your pound of gold. I don't care what conventional wisdom says, after everything goes downhill, gold and silver won't be worth much if you can't eat it, drink it, wear it, medicate with it, defend yourself with it, etc.
Just my opinion.
