He hates gold too much to open his mind to make money on it if given the chance."

No I didn't. Look on this whole thread and you'll never see that I said our fiat money is worthless. I've said there is a chance that it could become worthless. I've said in a few places that our fiat money has value because our government and our military says so. But a Tunguska event over Washington would change that in a twinkling of an eye.

No, I want cash from my currency trading. I want (and get) security from gold.

"...IOW, a garage full of Spam and ammuntion could turn into a safe full of gold, which finally turns into grand estates after the crisis passes."

Perhaps - assuming you have the weapons and strategy to prevent others from taking your "goods" from you by force...

In times of crises -- especially in this country -- there will be a LOT of armed coyotes prowling and searching for the necessities.

Keeping your goods and family safe -- may require you keep your "prepared - supplied" status secret and to concentrate on surviving, instead of getting rich on your neighbors foolishness.

I man with starving children, and no gold -- but with a weapon ---- will come and attempt to take what his family needs to survive... It's normal human behavior.
