Thats the way to go. I bet very soon car dealerships and other expensive things willl only be sold in gold, electric or physical.

Probably won’t happen in Illinos but tons of online merchants are going to that model. A lot of people won’t mess with paypal and a lot of people are going through gold merchants. http://www.e-gold.com If inflation kicks in a year or 2 from now a lot more people will want a stable medium to trade in.
I'll hang onto more precious things as currency. Like food, Coffee, Salt, Sugar. Bring me eight ounces of coffee beans and you can have 6 fresh eggs.
