Gold/silver is a dumb boomer investment trap
Invest in a stable essential company instead

Sure, but the only reason you would ever want to physically store in your safe is in the event of complete collapse, in which case your gold is kind of worthless anyway because everybody is starving and you cant eat coins

This is why I advocate owning land (upon which you can grow veggies and raise livestock), combined with having a lot of children, as a winning strategy for anyone, but especially people who have lost faith in their governments.

Gold isnt viable to invest unless you expecting another major post apocalyptic event.

Go with land/real estate, useful businesses, food production etc for safe hedging and future tech as a growth

Having a lot of children is a shitty decision in modern capitalism. The only way it pays off is if the crash happens when they are 14-18.

Children cost a lot of money and severely limit your flexibility.

The only way they're worth it is if you just really want to have kids. And that's cool. Lots of people like that. But as far as, like, monetary decisions and freedom are concerned, it's not great.

Unless you’re living off the grid in bumfuck nowhere and force your kids to make up expenses with child labor on a farm it ain’t gonna pay off

It's one of many perks. Kids are a liability and there are far to much of them. Capitalism does an indirect downsizing of the population.

There is a downsizing of white population. Minorities get a boost through funding, various programs and favorable treatments from the government, who takes money from white people and redistributes it to minorities.
