By now you should have caught on to the fact that plan or not, the dollar is going away soon. Whether it's replaced by some other state currency or a world's currency, if you are stashing cash, put it with your toilet paper.
Now, I'm not here to shill for any particular gold and silver exchange. That you must figure out on your own. Nor am I going to discourage Cyrpto investing with the exception that one, you need electricity to access and use it and two, should the Pedos that be seize control of all networks and serves, there goes your way to barter with it. The more I watch events unfold, the more I feel that Crypto is a fool's gold. It's going "up" in value because the dollar is plummeting and it's gonna plummet faster with each new trillion dollar stimulus and infrastructure bullshit.
I'm not going to datefag or make some crazy stupid prediction. Things COULD turn around. The dollar COULD regain value and in that event oh no you have some silver or gold stored up. Personally for me my silver is my retirement plan.
Don't get caught with your pants down. Don't be that guy stuck in a FEMA camp regretting not having bought any tangible metals.
Serious question. If we are moving to the gold standard, why would it be good to hold gold?
Once we are on the standard, the value of gold wouldn't change.
I suspect stocks and paper currency would be converted into some gold value.
Honest question
For one, the transition to a new currency will leave everyone broke. This isn't as simple as a blood transfusion. This is more like the body gets completely drained and then re filled with new blood. Except if you have silver or gold, you won't be drained in a sense...
The valuations will be changed. Instead of your house costing a hundred thousand plus dollars, it'll be more like a thousand. And so on with everything else. It'll also depend on if we get gold standard notes or another fiat. If it's another fiat, silver and gold will be valued accordingly.
But at no point will precious metals lose all their value. That's the key
