buy guns and ammo or gold?

If things really go to shart, I can get together enough gasoline to drive to Bill's house, so I guess I'm OK.

We could meet you there.... but we should have an agreement on how to prepare and cook Bill ahead of time. I think he's spicy enough as it is, so perhaps a plain rotisserie approach should suffice. Tenderizer seems called for.

Seems from the photo that we'd get several meals, even with both our clans. I met my wife in Toronto, so we'd be happy to share with you guys! Let's pray for entropy!
 
During the last depression the government made a law and TOOK ALL THE GOLD. If you had any and they found out, off to jail you went. Ain't the goverment sweet?

Uhhhh...kinda... :D To do anything worth doing in the medical field requires a bunch of prerequisites... ;) .

Think nursing, or EMT, or both. You'll find that you've met most of the prereq's for the former, and there often aren't any for the latter...........as long as we're amassing knowledge as a commodity, it ought to be knowledge that one can trade upon.....(an herbalism course wouldn't hurt, either....) :wink:

It's not polite to cook the host.
 
I consider it as sampling the local cuisine......

You mean your original post was not an open invite to post apocalyptic cannibalism?? Ooops, sorry.......:angel:
 
Ya know, you guys are welcome over here to the Live Free Or Die state. We got some good huntin', good fishin', and nothing bad really happens here...well...except ice storms but its nothing you guys haven't seen before. ;)

Sounds good, but it will be to far to travel if all goes to pieces.

The dog in the picture has the same resigned, "My Master is nuts" look that our dog Ginger has....

Well, you read the t-shirt, right? Milo did, too. And Molly. They're good dogs.

All I am trying to say is that if it hits the fan, you are better off where I am then in a major city.

And it would not really mater if they had a place to hunt. Most city dwellers have no idea how to survive without a supermarket.
I don't disagree.

well i thought the question would be interesting, and fun to see what people thought. land is good if you can keep it.. if not else you can grow a carrot on it. .. weapons and ammo are good if it gets nasty... ask the folks in LA when the riots happened last time, and they had no way to defend themselves. gold is good because an ounce of gold buys in value today what it basically bought clear back in say 1850... it keeps its value basically constant.. and personally i think obama and the idiots in congress are going to do a wiemar republic at this rate with the US curancy at this rate.

but I find the reasons and responses very interesting ( wearing an old coal skuttle helmet perhaps like on laugh in... ) :jediduel:
 
That is perhaps the true value of your thread.... to illustrate that in emergency planning, it is not "either/or" but rather "and".

There are many measures one should consider taking across a wide spectrum. Just as a fighter with only one strong technique is vulnerable, so too is a person with only gold......

The best back up is a sense of humor. I keep mine on a shelf in my library, next to the latest edition of "To Serve Man".
