I agree completely!!! I understand Hollywood has 5 movies coming out about Y2K though... This will fuel the fire of survivalism among the younger people. At least most of these people that will go and see and of course, believe these movies don't have any money anyhow.
Lots of retirees are pulling their money out in cash or buying bonds or gold.
My thoughts are... if this is going to be that bad, paper money and bonds will be worthless.
Jan 1, 2000 will come and go and other than maybe a brief and minor inconvenience here and there we will be the same. Other things may be offline but you can damn well bet that anything that has anything to do with the flow of money will work.... MY OPINIONS
