Seriously! But I would say one needs look at the international picture when thinking of what to trade as valued currency. Is hyperinflation going to hit globally or is this more an American problem in your view? At the end of the day though there are commodities and there are COMMODITIES and I would think it's wisest to invest in the very basic needs of man.
