In reality if bad times really hit ,What 98% OF US HAVE AS A HORDING STASH will get chewed up fast ,then we are done . I guess if I had massive money to play with, I'd get a lot of - lead - copper - silver - gold - but in the mean time I have bills taking most of my money - sure any time i see $25 bucks spent as a waste i say that should of been silver .

I have the family thing every body wants and wants - whats a poor guy to do. I keep finding copper & brass, I try to sell off as little as I can, I buy silver 4 to 5 ounce a month thats the best i can do and it wont be enough , if the banks fail us

PS
why spay the dogs and cats they will help you survive . Some can hunt for you and some you can sell to Chinese restaurants
(look thats an old standing joke , so no one get bent out of shape) In china they do eat cat and dog
If you want a quick and easy way to replenish your supplies after the catastrophe the quickest way to do that is to make an appearance on The Price is Right. If you proclaim you spay and neuter your pets you have a better chance of getting chosen( I have inside information on that but cannot reveal my sources)
