I think in that scenario there will be a lot of things more valuable than gold. Also, I’d rather just die if we get to the bartering stage….
Also, maybe I’m just naive, but I’ve always been an eternal optimist, I don’t plan for end of world scenarios because I like to think they aren’t going to happen.
