Yea kinda...
Could it happen? Sure. Likely? No. But certainly possible...
Think of any seriously broken/war-torn country that suffers from inherent poverty problems. Places like various countries in central Africa, Afghanistan, Bosnia, etc. Heck, even Iraq to some extent... How valuable is gold in those places? Now how valuable is gold as opposed to medicine, food, electricity, running water, safe passage for one's family from X to Y, etc.?
Gold isn't a BAD thing to have some of, but I doubt having lots of it will ever really insure one's survival if the S.H.T.F.
