During Obama reign of terror I moved into bonds and said fuck it. My investments were not keeping up with inflation. Not going to make a lot in bonds if anything but at least I was not getting crushed, mainly just keeping what I had.

I moved early this time. I'm not sitting around waiting for this thing to crash which it will. That's ok if people want to laugh at me. I don't need the money and want off the roller coaster ride. I did well under Trump. Taking my winnings early and getting off this rickety cart.

I'm in the same boat, mostly cash waiting to figure out which way the wind blows. If they do an infrastructure plan of a few trillion, it could really pump up the economy and stock market. Don't think they will get it passed though.

I'm likely to start buying bonds and be on the sidelines for a few years. Democrats are intent on fucking up our economy, especially main street and the middle class. Can't see how we keep inflation under control with all of this spending and increasing commodity prices.

LOL.

Cash- the only way to lose more than bonds.

Gold is money, but it isn't cash (and probably won't even be liquid for a while after SHTF). Ammo isn't money yet, but it soon will be.

And it doesn't matter how much your ammo is "worth" unless you're selling it. I'm sure as hell not selling mine.

Really, should probably sell the gold and buy more ammo and food, but I admit I haven't gone all in either. I suppose, on one level, if it gets that bad, then death won't be so bad, so who cares?

I'm feeling cheery this morning!
