Ready cash

6873 Views 150 Replies 78 Participants Last post by  USARV72
Let's say I want to have $10,000 in ready funds available not in a bank. What is the best/ safest form to have that money in? Is there anything better than just paper currency? Just thinking out loud here...

Depends to what end? SHTF nuclear/zombie war probably tradeable first line necessities of some sort. WWII occupied Soviet territories gold,diamonds etc bought you a lot less food vs medicine, tools, ammo fuel Get out of town fast due to some localized disaster cash will work just fine. SHTF scenario initial stages assume either a) you'd have what you need for self sufficient survival or b) you'd be getting what you need at gun point and you'd have to be comfortable with it from the get go. Predators of all stripes will come out to feed and whatever impractical "valuables" you might have won't last you long be that gold, diamonds or NFT art.

Insulin would be my go to thing. assuming I can keep it cold and stashed which should be doable with current technology. Might cost me another 10K for portable refrigirated solution but it'll go a long way in zombie apocalypse :).

Ammo, guns food clothing, personal meds first aid is all given.
