[QUOTE="mitchell, post: 60136, member: 989"]In a few years, rat might just be an American delicacy. Ammo is legal for me, for the time being. AG Gonzalez is gearing up his anti second amendment machine though, so it may not be for long. I very much appreciate the idea of soap. Even though I have quite a stockpile because I like showers (luxury item for me then), I never thought about it for barter goods. A 4-pak of ivory soap is less than $2 now,and like you said easy to store. Ammo is not something you barter with, it is something you defend yourself and your position with. Bartering with ammo would be a huge mistake on so many levels. The person you barter with today, may be the person you are shooting at tonight. I have always felt about metals as an investment that if silver goes up to $60 an ounce, how many dealers are going to be buying knowing that it could just as easily drop back below $10 before they turn it around. I don't think many dealers will be taking that chance. The cosideration for me it to have it for gradual inflation. If in 20 years, we still have an economy, if the stable price is $20 an ounce and people are trading it regularly, then I made a little money. But if silver spikes to a high amount, I personally don't know how many people, other than maybe ebay, will be buying a lot of it. I know I wouldn't. I don't even buy silver when it is over $7 an ounce.[/QUOTE]
