Greetings, fellow Patriots! This subject has been on my mind for quite some time now, but I didn't want to post here for fear of a backlash. But here goes.
Many people say a serious crash in the stock market is part of The Plan. What about those of us who sacrificed and saved and skimped to pad our retirement funds/IRA'S/Nest eggs, etc?
My husband and I aren't rich, but we've planned for our retirement for the past 30 years and should be able to retire comfortably, which is only a few years down the road. What will happen to all of our hard work, and everyone else who has done the same?
Please don't bash and say I'm missing the bigger picture. We have worked hard for what we've built! I just don't see Trump allowing the average Joe's life savings go up in smoke!
Thoughts, please.
What good is physical gold and silver if the DS puts everyone on a digital ID? If they control what you can buy, then your gold and silver won't do you much good.
Besides what 10lbsBass said, you realize that there will ALWAYS be a black market. Since civilizations began until man no longer is alive on the earth as we know it, there will be black markets. Silver and gold will always be useful here on earth. Also, see other items of value in a collapsed society for how to plan.
Black/Off-Market purchases of food and essentials. You can rest assured that will be a thriving venue, especially during any transitional period. If the SHTF, it's truly going to be a mind-numbing experience and it will be anything but smooth. Just remember that precious metals have been the bellwether store of value for thousands of years. Regimes rise and fall as do their currencies.
Yes, but somehow I don't see the DS as being very forgiving of a black market.
Same reason you're stacking silver and gold. ;-)
