When it hits the fan, you can’t eat gold.
Whereas you can eat federal reserve notes, stocks, bonds, commercial real estate...
Please describe to me the historical incidents where a person in a society where some food was available, and who had gold, starved to death.
you can’t eat the piece of paper you called money either. Gold is a medium of exchange like that piece of paper you called money

They tell me you can buy suits with it, though.
One suit, one ounce of gold. It’s been that way since, like the *ice age* or something.
I’m looking to put my money into dirt. You can grow vegetables in dirt, or you can grow grass in dirt and feed it to grass-eating animals, and grass eating animals are the primary raw ingredient in steak, and I like to eat steak. So I’m buying dirt.
In Zimbabwe, where most certainly the SHTF, only gold will get you food and supplies for the day.
I have also heavily invested in brass & lead so I might be able to influence people to my way of thinking.
Lots of things you can't eat.....Cars, Houses, Oil, Dollar Bills......Whats your point?
