TJ, when things are so bad, owning things, including gold, even carefully stored in your teeth, is not much use. When there are no bars between you and the wild-eyed murderous chimps, a stash of gold is not much consolation [though, if stored overseas, it could be used to bribe one's way out - hand over some in exchange for relatives, more in exchange for more, and the last in exchange for Sophie's choice of who to rescue].

As I suppose you are suggesting, owning land is not much use when the chimps can just walk onto it and take it over. Gold is portable.
