        Start putting savings in CAD. I’ve opened a savings and started buying land in Canada.

          I swapped most of my savings into physical Euros. Way I figure, having gold or foreign currency is my best bet, since I can’t leave.

            That’s a good start, but I’d go a step further and invest it in something that isn’t subject to inflation like currency.

              Unfortunately, I am not rich enough to afford property, nor have the storage for long-term food. At best, I have about 2 months of canned food, assuming that I was the only one eating it.

              The only thing that is certain, is that I am definitely NOT ready for when the Greater Depression kicks into gear.

                If you are thinking in terms of “my” or “I” you have already lost. You need community, you need city-services that can operate outside of a federal system, you need the ability to work with others to survive collectively.
