This is a very possible future. We will soon see much higher gasoline/diesel prices, which will make food shipments even more costly. And, this is all contrived, because America is supposed to be oil independent, or close to it. And huge forces are moving against farming and farmers. Like, literally trying to kill off the cattle population. This same force is building bug growing factories, and printed, lab grown meat. You won't be able to buy good, not-poisoned food, because it won't be for sale. - - - - - - -

## Assets are no longer assets; Food is no longer food When economies collapse, or currencies collapse, or … collapses, things that were assets just a few weeks ago, are no longer assets. Like, when Cuba collapsed, gold got you some food. But, mostly you way overpaid. But, when you NEED food, you will pay with whatever you have. Govern-cement bonds are good, right up until they are not. We will see people around the world dumping The US Treasury bonds. The prices will be a steal… but they will be payable in FRNs, and that will be a losing proposition. Gold and silver are not money, when there is no exchange rate and a stablish currency to convert into. It will be a great boon if stores had an assayer at the front of the store, and converted gold and silver into some kind of store credit. I hope they do that quick. I really hope that bitcoin catches on, and we can seamlessly buy food from the grocery store with it, and that the store can pay their suppliers with it… Sadly, the food in grocery stores is also degrading. McD's burger has almost no nutrition in it. You are eating, but starving. And the better food, in the grocery store, its nutrition is still falling - - - - - - -

## Being one second too late The whole phrase is: > It is better to be ten years too early, than one second too late. When govern-cements have revalued currency. If your money was in the bank, it was gone. If you had you money anywhere else, foreign currency, foreign stocks, gold, commodities… than you didn't lose your purchasing power. This has happened in Mexico, in Cuba, in Venezuela… and it is happening again. The problem is when. Because, one second too late, and you join the line of people hoping the bank opens and gives them back their money. (what's left of it) The day before a hurricane hits, everyone is in the grocery store buying everything, and anything they can buy. When the hurricane passes, the stores are still empty. They day after, even if there was very little damage, there is no food to buy. Just having a month's worth of food allows you to stay at home, safe and not hungry, while the masses go crazy trying to find something to eat. If a food or fuel crisis is in your future, having stores of needed things is very important. **AND!!!** you will be saving a LOT of money. Like buying APPL stock when it was only $3. Buying food to keep you fed during a crisis will be one of the best investments you ever made. (1 second after) - - - - - - -

## One of the biggest markets to come When the masses start waking up to how bad their food is, people will be searching out wholesome, healthy food from local growers. Building a business to provide this food will be one of the most lucrative plans in the coming decade. Again, it is about timing. You cannot just slap some seeds in the ground and hope good food grows. It usually takes a few years to get the soil working well, and the irrigation you will need. Investment bankers is so last decade, the new wealthy class will be farmers. My feelings say that if you don't get in before a certain date, you will have problems getting into this market. But, i am unsure why. Probably getting things like plastic pipes, sprinklers and control valves will become difficult. Way back ordered, or China stops selling to America. It could also be govern-cement "regulations" shutting down farms, which means, starting a new farm is impossible, and you will have to protect what you have. Or, it could be that getting GMO-free seeds becomes impossible, as the old stuff is banned from being sold. Anyway, get yourself a greenhouse, and grow your own food. It will pay BIG dividends - - - - - - -

Gold has been money for 5000 years. Only sorta… Food has been money for as long as humans have had to eat. During good times, when food is plentiful, people become complacent. Thinking there will always be enough. And then the bad times come, and everyone wishes for food. Gold, dollars, stocks… are all worthless until enough food is being grown and an economy is reformed. So, make food a substantial part of your investment portfolio. It will pay the largest dividends. And the best part about it, is that you CAN eat it. - - - - - - -
