If we think (and there have been numerous posts here to support this idea) that all major banks are going to fail because of over-investing in derivatives, what should we do if we have money in those banks? Pull it out in cash? Convert it to silver or gold? Put the cash under our mattress? And will cash be worth anything?
So if we have cash in checking or savings with a bank, how can we protect our assets?
I hear what you are saying, but God also helps those who help themselves, and preparing for a time of tribulation by taking steps to protect and honour our loved ones does not seem to be a fearful approach to me.
