Do you think people are stupid? If you go walking around to to "dealers" to "cash in " your gold you will be followed and robbed. You will also get the worst price available- guarantee!
You would be far better off fleeing to the mountains or the country. Do you have any idea at all what civilization will be like with mobs of angry hungry people roaming around and NO POLICE?
Only arrogance and ignorance would would lead a person to believe that he/she will be allowed to live in peace with a stash of gold to serve them ...lol
p.s.
Things can and do go bad instantly literally overnight.Just ask anyone living in Iceland ,Zimbabwe or Argentina. As far as roving bands of thieves just look at Brazil !

Groundbreaking WSJ Story on Gold http://seekingalpha.com/article/147952/comments?source=feed#comment-581194 581194 1) Physical gold bullion MUST be assayed before it can be sold.
This adds undue expense and inconvienance to selling gold.
2) The Government will confiscate gold in the event of economic collapse. This you can be sure of .
3)Huge security risk: where will you keep your Canadian maple leafs? On your person? In your home? Your car? Certainly not in a safe deposit box (those will be banned by government like in the 30's).
I have watched way too many apopolyptic horror scenarios ,home invaders,etc willing to do your family or yourself great bodily harm to get at your gold.
4) Now lets say you have the perfect storm. You have adequate security no one knows you have gold and silver hidden. Civilization comes crashing down around us -where will you spend your gold ? Barter with some local blackmarketers?
With just in time inventories store shelves will be empty in hours.
Will you and your family eat while your extended family and friends go hungry? "Sorry lil nephew I cannot feed you ,You should have told that deadbeat father of yours to hoard gold like me!"
You see the problems that will rise? If you are that certain that our society will be consumed by financial chaos then you would be far wiser to spend your money now. Buy a cabin in the mountains stock it with food and all your toys and then when the moment comes - you leave!
Hoarding gold in a metropolitan environment is at best delaying your own demise and at worse suicidal.]]>

Expect a Q4 Bear Market Rally - RBC http://seekingalpha.com/article/110791/comments?source=feed#comment-330205 330205 why didnt they warn anyone what was happening in the financials? hmmmm? enough said get some new experts dont waste our time with has beens and gutless wonders paid to say whatever their masters tell them to say ...]]> Mon, 15 Dec 2008 14:53:15 -0500 why didnt they warn anyone what was happening in the financials? hmmmm? enough said get some new experts dont waste our time with has beens and gutless wonders paid to say whatever their masters tell them to say ...]]> Sentiment Overview: A Little More Bullish http://seekingalpha.com/article/110638/comments?source=feed#comment-329457 329457 1) consumers have lost money to spend from equity loans.
2)consumers are experiencing severe credit contraction so major purchases cannot be financed.
3) unemployment is rising to record levels
4) 401ks are down anywhere from 40-60%
Exactly where do u see the recipe for a SUSTAINED bull market?
I know banks have been using government loans to buy stocks but this is not sustainable.
We have a major disaster in the making and for u to suggest that a bull market rally is coming is complete madness.
Maybe I am mistaken and ur only trying to spot the makings of a bull rally in a sea of bears.none the less I see no strong bull market for some time -nothing that will last anyway...gl cheers

Not So Fast, UBS http://seekingalpha.com/article/109449/comments?source=feed#comment-322558 322558 They will also do the same thing with the chinese market.
All depressions and recessions have large bear market rallies -we will have one as well.
Watch for the following to determine when a rally begins
1) investor sentiment seems hopeless
2)the market shakes off "bad news" or becomes immune to bad news.
3)the Russell 2000 leads the way up.
4)The financial sectors garner strength.
Once these forces become apparent we will have a rally. It will not sustain itself -but we will have it !
It could take us from 11k to 13k somewhere in that range.
It happens in ALL bear markets it will happen here as well.
g/l to all cheers...;}]]>

There Are Still Many Shoes Left to Drop http://seekingalpha.com/article/107451/comments?source=feed#comment-313124 313124 I have a problem however when the media "piles on ".
Most intelligent investors know the situation. I like when the media "enlightens us", to previously unknown problems.
However, I dont like it when the markets are trying to rally and the media "piles on" with information we already know or should know. I begin to wonder if the media has "bearish " positions that have not been fully disclosed!
My final thought is this : where was the media when-
1) Real estate was in a bubble.
2) The major banks were making "toxic investments".
3) Insurers were making "toxic investments"
4) FNM and FRE were lobbying constantly for more government favors.
Why didn't the media do some investigative reporting and reveal these things "much earlier?"
Can the answer be the media "does'nt care" or better yet - are the media bosses part of the problem?
Lets see some articles on that ...]]>
