So we all know to be prepared, have hard metals, stocked up food, cash on hand, etc. I’ve done all that, but now fine tuning it. I have cash and money in the bank. If everything goes to crap this next week, then it’s losing value and I’m missing out because it is turning worthless. If I spend it on tradeable goods and things that hold value, and then it takes months for the collapse to happen, I am left trying to pay my mortgage and bills with ammunition and bottles of whisky. Sure I could by gold then trade it back in if needed, but then I’m just losing some value assuming no movement in the price. Thoughts?

My plan is not to spend any money, or as little as possible.
Buy long shelf life foods at least. And guns and ammo for protection. Better to have it and not need it. My canned food I rotate and consume when it’s been a while. Always replacing the supply. Couple of months is all you need. When shit hits the fan, if by 3 months is still bad, move and take your family to safe areas. Armed communities are the safest.
My plan is to buy all the things on my wish list because they may never be available again. eg-PEMF mat and other healing items.
The money will not do me any good in the bank as it goes down.
I have reasonable prepping done already but I've already decided to stay with the house - no bugout bag for me. I'll die in my own bed.
Yea I'm doing the same. I should have qualified my comment a bit to say I am not wasting money on discretionary non-essential expenses, but since I got married 38 years ago to Miss Scrooge that been the norm.
Balance is good, but I think I would rather be married to a penny-pincher than a spend thrift. Unfortunately penny-pinchers tend to be pussy-pitnhers too, or is that just a common trait married women in general.
Read a fully IT Support thing yesterday:
Dear Tech Support,
Last year I upgraded from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0 and noticed that the new program began unexpected child processing that took up a lot of new space and valuable resources. Not mention of this phenomenon was included in the product brochure.
In addition, Wife 1.0 installs itself into all other programs and launches during system initialization, where it monitors all other system activity. Applications such as Poker Night 10.3, Drunken Boys Night 2.5 and Saturday Football 5.0 no longer run, crashing the system whenever selected.
I cannot seem to keep wife 1.0 in the background while attempting to run some of my other favorite applications. I am thinking about going back to Girlfriend 7.0, but the uninstall does not work on this program.
Can you please help me !!!???
Thanks,
A TROUBLED USER
Dear TROUBLED USER,
This is a very common complaint, but is mostly due to a primary misconception. Many people upgrade from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0 with the idea that Wife 1.0 is merely a UTILITIES & ENTERTAINMENT program. Wife 1.0 is an OPERATING SYSTEM and designed by its creator to run everything.
It is unlikely you would be able to purge Wife 1.0 and still convert back to Girlfriend 7.0. Hidden operating files within your system would cause Girlfriend 7.0 to emulate Wife 1.0 so nothing is gained. It is impossible to uninstall, delete, or purge the program files from the system once installed. You cannot go back to Girlfriend 7.0 because Wife 1.0 is not designed to do this.
Some have tried to install Girlfriend 8.0 or Wife 2.0 but end up with more problems than the original system. Look in your manual under "Warnings- Alimony/Child support". I recommend you keep Wife 1.0 and deal with the situation.
I suggest installing background application program C:\YES DEAR to alleviate software augmentation. Having installed Wife 1.0 myself, I might also suggest you read the entire section regarding General Partnership Faults (GPFs). You must assume all responsibility for faults and problems that might occur, regardless of their cause. The best course of action will be to enter the command C:\APOLOGIZE. In any case avoid excessive use of C:\YES DEAR because ultimately you may have to give the APOLOGIZE command before the operating system will return to normal. The system will run smoothly as long as you take the blame for all the GPFs.
Wife 1.0 is a great program, but very high-maintenance. Consider buying additional software to improve the performance of Wife 1.0. I recommend Flowers 3.1 and Diamonds 2K. Do not, under any circumstances install Secretary with Short Skirt 3.3. This is not a supported application for Wife 1.0 and is likely to cause irreversible damage to the operating system.
Best of Luck,
Tech Support
