so what do you suggest? buy silver? buy gold? What hedges do you prefer against inflation? (note there is no purple in those questions; these are serious questions looking for serious answers)
I would say self sustainability is the only true hedge against inflation, if you produce your own energy(wind/solar/etc) then it dont matter how much it costs to power your house on the grid.
Along those lines i would advise for long term foods, or anything that you can buy today and know that you will use in the future. All these items even in the best of times have gone up in price and not down.
As an example, i have 2 years worth of toothpaste, 3 years worth of soap, 2 years worth of razors,etc.
If your looking to make a profit on items in the future, why not a class 3 permit and collect automatic weapons/ammo and such?
I would only advise gold if someone had 100k or more they wanted to protect.
I would suggest land,livestock,and items you use daily to start off with. I invested in heirloom seeds, talk about an investment that keeps on growing and will long into the future, those are it.
The burger king have it your way lifestyle is over, the quicker people realize it, the better off they will be.
A system that was set up to create the principal but never the interest, is a system set up to drain the wealth and then collapse. Thats just the way it is, the system wont care if anyone believes it or not, it will happen.
Thanks for the question, this is imho so ymmv.
