What are your thoughts on investing in gold coins?

I mean, sure it is pretty and all, and rarity will always drive up value, but if people are hungry, they're probably not going to be buying shiny objects. Or am I totally missing something? I just think that it's all risky. All investment is risky.

You can use the gold bars to hit the zombies in the head.

Sorry...I really couldn't help posting it... I kept reading hoping someone would say something about zombies...but no one did.


But I do wonder that too, what are you going to do with all that gold if your reason is "TSHTF crazy awful bad"?
