Milwr Jr. 99 Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 I'm curious... you mentioned that converting your money to a foreign currency wasn't effective. If you were to convert your currency to Renminbi (China's currency) it would stay safe. But, to answer your question: Collectables. I've collected many things, but the thing I'd be buying to keep my money safe would be gaming collectables (I.E: When a new game comes out, buy the highest, most pricey edition possible). It's value is only going to increase over time. The same could be said for any field of collectables. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SNAP SHOT 194 Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 Spealing to a business investor... he explained the gold is too volitile at the minute, With soaring prices, the bubble WILL burst, and loose a massive ammount of value overnight, And stated its a shot term investment... get in make a few pounds and out again... Silver is where he has personally invested, as well as the swiss frank....!!! He stated that if britan leaves the EU, other counteries will still export to the uk, but brtians exports will fall dramatically As counteries look elsewhere for same goods at a better value... If the euro does collapse then all currancies, will be based value wise againest the german Euro... And not againest sterling..... property is a good but very long term investment he stated, and you will wait years or decades for a return on your investment... strange times indeed, Snap.

forest of dean redneck 11,821 Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 simplest solution is not too have any money. but either arms,ammo,fuel or foodstuff would be my guess. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
foxfan 479 Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 Some foods may not be a bad idea. I wasn't so much thinking complete society collapse mind, but currency collapse which is less serious than total chaos in society so rather than gangs roaming the streets etc, think high inflation, high unemployment, increasing poverty, current debts held in old more valuable currency whilst deposits converted to much less valuable new currency. Dressed stone may be hard to shift if that boom were not to come to pass? I would have thought the two were linked. Currency collapse = oil through the roof = empty supermarket shelves = civil unrest ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mullettt 15 Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 what ever product you purchase it will devalue if currency falls through the roof so its a very sensitive topic for some surely my only answer would be,buy your self a few lurchers no expense spared as when the time comes and money is worthless there will be no tescos or even lorrys on the roads to get products to the markets and iam sure good dogs in your kennels will feed you and your family through the harsh times, Also invest in a couple horses and cart to get you about but the lurchers come 1st Quote Link to post Share on other sites
