Excellent list.

Opinion: put it in gold. It's the only commodity/currency choice that requires no help from the world's computers (except the part where you need to get into the safe deposit box).

I'm pretty sure that's what I'm going to do. And I'm guessing enough people will think like me that the price will go up.

But I'm not doing it for anything but protection of assets, good old fashioned mattress stuffings.

Y2K CONTINGENCY PLANNING THREAD
<Is there any discussion thread focusing on asset allocation/preservation & the following:
issues from a Y2K perspective?
*Banks (safe vs. unsafe)
*Currencies (strong vs. soft after Y2K)
*Y2K will result in inflation or deflation
*Should we expand or reduce our personal debt levels prior to Y2K
*Gold/silver
*Precious metal stocks
*ETC
>

I'm going to start a new Y2K thread on contingency planning for Y2K. This would cover the above ... and planning in general ... financial and otherwise ... home, food, pulling money out of bank, etc.

I would appreciate any links which you think would be beneficial to include in the intro paragraph.

Thanks,

Cheryl
