Ask the Avid Bruxist: Financial Security

Reader Margo asks

my friend says the economy is going to collapse and i should buy silver coins and hide them under my bed. but my bed is on the floor. what should i do?

The Avid Bruxist answers

No worries.  Here’s what you do:  purchase in equal amounts silver coins, gold bullion, euros, yen, yuan, pounds, and Kuwaiti dinars.  Send them to me. There is room under my bed.  You know my address.

That goes for all of you.
