Folks, if you've got any money in savings you better think about protecting it

[ThomWV]

If you've got money saved you might want to find a safe harbor for it - soon!

4. So it's time to buy metal?

Because if what you're hinting at happens, paper currency will be ass-wipe.

[ThomWV]

5. Metal, oil, or just get it out of the country

I chose Brazil.

[WinkyDink]

6. Pretty useless advice as posted. ETA: What does "I chose Brazil" mean?

[ThomWV]

9. I presume that if you have a little cash you know enough to know where to put it

[WinkyDink]

21. Then your entire thread is pointless, you say?

But of course, you wouldn't make it less pointless by actually including details, such as: The Brazilian entity into which you have placed your savings.

[ThomWV]

12. Read the phrase in front of your quote and maybe you can figure it out

It says 'get it out of the country'. Brazil is another country, not this country. If you move your money to Brazil it will not be in this country - a handy thing when the economy of this country turns to utter shit.

7. What's money? What's savings

[dipsydoodle]

8. Have you got means testing on the way ?

11. I'll see if I can get the cat to protect the pickle jar on the kitchen counter.

[Uben]

13. I don't take financial advice from political boards.....

....maybe that's why I still have a little money left! I live here, I invest here, I buy here. I'll die here. My money stays here. I'd rather be broke in America than rich in Brazil. Just my opinion.

14. Come On, Thom!

We were far closer to going over the dge 3 years ago.

15. Define "protecting" please.

Protecting it from inflation?

Protecting its existence in an FDIC insured bank?

[robcon]

16. Bullshit thread.
