<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikem2000, post: 2195883, member: 30574&quot;]Many Fiat Currecies that have not survived never collapsed or failed.&nbsp; The French Franc is just one of many examples.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>More important though, it is a bit ridiculous to design an entire financial plan around an event that will most likley not happen in our lifetime.&nbsp; It is just not playing the odds.&nbsp; I don&#039;t think anyone has an issue with putting a resonable amount of weatlh (perhaps 5-8%) in PM to cover more bases but to go &quot;all-in&quot; makes little sense. I mean what if the USD does not fail???&nbsp; There was a huge oportunity in equities to actually GROW your wealth that could provide a better life for you an your family that was completely missed and just went completely down the tubes because you decided to play the long shot. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So could it happen in your lifetime???&nbsp; Maybe</p><p>But will it happen???&nbsp; Most likley not.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Play the odds accordingly[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
