cash or gold for the mason jar savings plan?

[swampratt]

Ok so a legit question.
You have a bunch of cash doing nothing would you be better off trading it in for gold pieces of just keep the cash?

I remember back in the late 1990's gold was pretty low and some thought it would go to 800 or 850 an oz.
If you would have took your spare cash and got gold then I think you would be doing better with it now.

No gains to be paid on the gain in gold price.
HHHMMM???

Id go for the gold, cash could become worthless in a shtf situation.

Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Invest in both gold/silver and cash.

Yep...
Keep some cash so they wont know about the gold....when it comes down to It....lead will take the gold...

Dollar bills are good for booting bike tires. Gold, not so much.

Buy lead with your cash.

Not cash, whatever. Gold, lead, ETOH, anything that's a commodity besides cash. If it comes to the point where you need your stash, greenbacks are going to be used for starting campfires.

I always thought the little quip was kinda dumb. Everyone I know that's sitting on a poke of gold has more then enough lead to keep it.

Sold all my gold in 2011 gladly before it started going down. Been thinking about it again tho.

(Tapatalk)- on the road.

So...they knew to acquire the lead to protect the gold.......same?
