Any suggestions/advice on the goldbacks? I feel like sticking to coin and bars is best for me, but anyone that has opinions on this is greatly appreciated.
I have some. I like having them. I have other hard currency as well. I like the fractional denominations of the goldbacks. Have you seen pictures of them?
I have, like they keep issuing "new dollars" in state themes. Like NV or WY. I dunno. I kinda feel like if white hats are in control than it won't ever get that far (to the point of us needing them...and if we do, then they'll just issue something new/different in their place). And, if the US dollar is fcked then any "US gold backs" are fcked. Again, I dunno. I'm just thinking about when the "fun" times comes: is someone gonna want my silver coin or a "gold back.' On the other hand: my husband's survival mode is bullets..."he who has the bullets has the power": He is in full pirate mode...whatever we need we will take. #survivalofthefittest and all, right?
The goldbacks are actual gold, encased in a polymer sheet. They are issued by the state, so they really aren't US dollars. But, there's plenty of other things for you to buy.
I feel like I'm keeping some lower denominal fiats for this reason. Like if everything went tits up, I could still probably give someone $5 fiat for their loaf of bread, no? I think normies would still accept it, even in the apocalypse...
