>When SHTF the only good reason to hold metals is that instead of losing 100% of your cash value in fiat you can lose maybe 50%, and suffer less than a pure paper investor. Gold and silver may work as hedges against inflation in good times, but they suck as a hedge against wars and famines, because they are often exchanged for more liquid assets to pay for immediate necessities. Simply put, gold may be worth something when SHTF but it won't be worth a bag of rice. My bet is that when SHTF a bag of rice would rather be worth an equivalent of $10k/oz.

You want to be ready for several months of crisis and definitely be prepared, but at the same time don't panic and think that the world is going to collapse and go back into a new Dark Age. Picture related will give you a general sense of what is about to happen.

You don't trade metals for "money" (fiat) during a financial crisis, you trade them for things. You could buy a mansion in Weimar Germany for five ounces of gold.

>Then why are you investing in stocks? If you really believe half of what you're saying, you should be buying guns and farmland. Not even PMC or crypto, let alone slips of paper that are predicated on rule of law being maintained.
See picture, this is a common misconception that the MSM puts in people's heads.

> a bad counterexample
It's not a bad example at all. For you to be saying that fiat and America will never collapse is just as naive and childish as it was for somebody to claim that Rome or the Soviet Union would never fall. All the conditions are there, and hyperinflation is already here.
