Q&A With Scott Burns: When Paper Money Goes, Gold and Silver Will Have Difficulties, Too
FYI: Q. I have a question about gold and silver. In the event of a catastrophic economic collapse, where can I sell my gold and silver? Surely, banks will have crumbled and precious metals dealers will be out of business. I can't very well take a gold bar, or for that matter, a 1-ounce gold coin to the store to buy bread and milk. Who will buy my gold for cash? Or do you predict a barter system will take over? ---D.
