<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bhp3rd, post: 838478, member: 16510&quot;]This has always bothered me to but I think it&#039;s a great deal human nature to gab and justify what you have, store, save, and how well you may be prepared. We all do it in one way or another.&nbsp; It&#039;s all an illusion until you know what your in for.</p><p>Just as you say it&#039;s crazy to think that gold or silver will be your advantage or your hedge.&nbsp; Just ask those folks a on the S.S. Cetral America as they were scattering their gold across the deck of the ship.&nbsp; Three things became very important real quick, air, something to float on or with and knowing somewhat how to swim.&nbsp; Gold was not only no good it was useless and could kill you quicker.</p><p>Now people may come back and say this or that or the other thing but how do you know what&#039;s going to be valued, needed or worth a tinkers damn until that particular situation unfolds?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Things that are always in demand such as a trade, or brains may be needed but we don&#039;t even know that will be vauled.&nbsp; Tools and lumber, food, water, shelter will be valued it always is.&nbsp; Those also may say &quot;well I&#039;ll have the PM gold or silver to buy those things but if tools, food, water shelter are important why would gold get them then?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>People also think they are smarter than they really are (I know I do) and that will carry the day.&nbsp; That won&#039;t carry a bucket of water any faster than clown the down the road now will it?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I&#039;m always amazed on CoinTalk or at any shop or show when gold sailing people talk it to death, when it&#039;s falling few folks says a thing.&nbsp; There is a bunch of folks in gold right now over $950 an ounze and the fact is it was just 7 short years ago it was under $300, do what makes you feel best.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I&#039;ve said it before, the only thing that will give you any adavantage is the williness to commit, some effort and luck, and luck is the most important of the three!&nbsp; Oh how we hate to think of such a things as being the edge to survive but that&#039;s all it is.&nbsp; We hate it because it&#039;s not something we think will be important and you can&#039;t wrap your arms around - it&#039;s the only thing we&#039;ve ever had in the first place![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
