Hyper inflation in the past.

If the U.S. continues printing money hyper inflation will be our future. Inflation makes most of us homeless and living under bridges.

How to counter the possibility when all of the fiat money in the world is mere firestarter, buy gold and silver or other such commondities. Property is already much less expensive than it used to be, but, you have to be able to weather the storm or put the property to use.

I've said it before: If you've got some property consider livestock. Be sure to have your handgun and shotgun available with plenty of ammunition. If you've got something others feel that they need you'll need to be ready. Having food available will be better than gold.
