>if the world goes to shit, who really will carer about gold or silver…
Anon will, because anon is patient and prepped.
Anon will sell firewood for silver or gold, or extra food or ammo for grandpa’s coin collection.
Anon will even provide refrigeration in exchange for those shiny bars.
If you have to evacuate someplace in a hurry, would you rather transport half a ton of ammo, or 100# of precious metals, and 900# of food, water, clothes, tent, tools, etc.?
If you can’t carry it in an emergency, you won’t own it after the emergency.
