I also think it is frustrating that you cannot hold your own cash for years in a safe place because they change the currency every few years to stop you doing this and you can't change huge amounts of old notes to new notes without passing bank security checks etc. You can't even give someone an amount of money (I think it is over £5k in the UK) without there being an investigation into it! The sooner we move away from banks the better! I also agree with your comment above about the best investment is in learning how to provide for yourself and your family for the basics in life, food water, shelter etc.

I'm investing in knowledge and skills for if/when credit freezes and supermarkets run dry. Foraging and growing veggies knowledge will hopefully fulfil that requirement :)
Most of my meagre savings are now in silver (physical, not paper contracts ;) a good hedge I reckon against the banking fraud :) (once price manipulation ends)

We don't have much silver or gold. But we do have tobacco and lots of knowledge, so we feel that will be our way to bring power into our bartering. :)
I think I've covered most bases to, a bit o' silver, foraging and some gardening skills. Oh, and about 500 flint disposable lighters,........ should be worth their weight in gold I reckon (one day ;)
Have you written about your tobacco assets? Can you grow it in Canada? How do you intend to use it as a medium of exchange?
As a dedicated pipe smoker I am very interested!

I grow tobacco very well here, so I can harvest it and trade for other goods, especially those who are addicted to tobacco. :) But we mainly give it away right now for ceremony and giving thanks.
It runs deeper than that as they also control inflation, one of the most evil instruments in their arsenal. By printing more money and spending it into the economy, they end up owning a percentage of the economy and water down the rest of the money out there. So they found a way to steal money from your tin can by making its purchasing power less without actually going into your house. These pirates deserve to be put out of business and we do that by walking away. They are too powerful to fight and fighting is also violence. Time to return to the land. Nice comments @beautifulbullies! I agree with you.
