Cash held during major inflation is going to lose value a lot faster than cash invested. If total market collapse happens, no money is worth anything anyway. Seeds, water, food will be valuable.

Assets don't depreciate as much as cash.

Vote with your money by using the better brokers and investing in the proper companies. Don't fuck yourself so you can take pallets of cash (obamastyle) to walmart for half a loaf of stale bread later.

Everyone who invested in guns, ammo, and precious metals is looking pretty smart right now.

To me, guns and ammo are more of a hedge against the fall of civilization than an investment. I would not plan to sell them at the market peak either.

Holding the US dollar is a sure way to lose money.

Guns are not good for barter cuz the recipient is then armed and dangerous.
