<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ewomack, post: 430686, member: 15588&quot;]I see no reason (yet) to feel insecure about safe deposit boxes.

Nor would money. When food becomes scarce, I wouldn&#039;t trade a can of beans for gold. I can&#039;t eat gold (well, not for nourishment, at least). I would happily trade my gold coin for a can of beans if it means I&#039;m eating that day. But that&#039;s in extreme circumstances.</p><p><br /></p><p>Buy sell or hold depends on the % you have invested. If you&#039;re worried about making expenses based on your buying habits, then quit buying until things blow over. Then if you need to, sell.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course if the prices drop really low buying remains a satisfying option... like a few weeks ago when gold careened down to about $750. I had to buy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
