I think so too. It's a great time to get prepared and to take action....time is running out, IMHO.

<<capital controls will be in place my friend>>

Yes, that is very likely, looking a couple years down the road.

Growing up in England, I can remember taking family vacations to Europe in the 1968-1970 or so period. The foreign currency allowances were so tight that spending money had to be carefully budgeted.

Imposing exchange controls at times of currency difficulty is a mainstream, accepted tactic in almost all countries.
