Exactly. You can’t buy with gold. Ammunition and alcohol and medical supplies will be currency soon enough. Gold will make a great paperweight however.
People who’s first first response to SHTF is to buy gold aren’t gonna last long. Food, water, fuel, and ammunition will be vastly more valuable and useful.
Utter nonsense! The item of exchange can be anything! Whatever the “market” in your area accepts! Water, DIRT, leaves, bullets, metal, AU, AG, food, meat, TP, etc.!!

Once can last for 3 minutes without air, 3 days without water, 30 days without food and forever without gold.
