Silver for bartering. Gold for BUYING or PAYING OFF a debt. If we go into any money crisis and that could mean no internet, electricity, hard assets like your PMs could get you out of a tight spot. You should have already stacked food, water, baby needs, fuel - like firewood, meds, pet needs etc. Silver will allow you to barter for those things like a ham radio, more ammo, that perhaps you didn’t get around to getting before a crash. Gold on the other hand could pay off your mortgage, move to a more secure location, etc. If I was in America, I would be seeking cheap, out of the way land. we watched a guy who spent $9000 on land with 40 acres, in a secure location. He bought in 3 containers. Fenced the property. Didn’t say he put in security but I bet he did. He put down a well. Solar, and totally fitted the house out with new appliances and furniture. He cashed in some crypto as he was working part time and working on property and felt the urgency to get it done. The total cost INCLUDING LAND?? $81,000.00 ! That’s amazing and he owns it. If you had family, that all felt the same way, on 40 acres that would give each family - say 3 or 4 - a good chance. Community is vital!! You could run goats and chickens instead of cattle and they could supply milk, meat and eggs. I’ll find the video and will link it. But $81,000. That’s amazing!!
