Okay, I have a small IRA account slowly loosing value at a bank, left over from divorce. Would it make sense to liquidate it, take the tax/penalty hit, and buy silver? It’s less than $3k. Anyone? Anyone?
How are you set for surviving a few months without the ability to get to the store?
If you aren't, I'd suggest purchases of a few months worth of long term storage foods, water, shelter (tent, sleeping bag, other camping supplies), and other survival type supplies are needed.
