DAC - Cash, Gold And Silver

[00:00:16] To oppose tyranny and fight for the rights of Creator Bestowed Us in the United States Constitution. The other Prepper Broadcasting Network

[00:00:48] I'm a newbie, Kill Phil. Kill Phil! Get rid of that groundhog. Man, this has been some winter. They say the temperatures this week are going to climb high, but it hasn't been since November. So that's how cold for how long we've been here. That's pretty rough.

[00:01:13] But I just thought I'd come to you on this Sunday because I heard a little bit of snippet on my way to Home Depot, one of my favorite stores, probably second favorite, Costco. And I pick it up the thing for running a wire. It's just too complicated to explain on this daily audio cash.

[00:01:41] But just know that the Jones homestead is continuing to march forward. Because you know what? Trump can't solve everything. Ladies and gentlemen, if you stopped prepping because Trump got elected, you are sorely mistaken. And I'm going to tell you what's going on in between Jones's ears here.

[00:02:06] So I've increased the amount of cash I have on hand. I do this whenever there's higher levels of instability. And gold went nuts. And Ukraine went nuts. And consequently, the Democrats went nuts. Wait, they've been nuts for a long time. So that don't count.

[00:02:35] But, you know, I like to, here's the rule of thumb. Have $1,000 in cash set aside. $1,000, usually you can solve most everyday emergencies with that $1,000 cash.

[00:02:55] And before you get to $1,000, you know, keep some money tucked back in your wallet in case the ATMs go down while you're out and about. And you don't have some. So I keep a couple $50s and maybe $100 just tucked in my wallet in case of emergencies. Okay. We used to call that mad money back in the day.

[00:03:23] And it was a $20 back in the day. And that mad money was to be able to call a cab. If your boyfriend made you mad, you could get out of his car and go call a cab. So keep some mad money tucked away. Okay. And now let's talk about gold and silver.

[00:03:45] If you're not trading like pounds and pounds of gold and silver, you're never going to get rich. Okay. Gold and silver will never make you rich, but it will keep you from being poor. Okay. Think of it that way.

[00:04:06] You're not going to get rich on the amount of gold and silver you're going to sock away, but it will keep you from being poor. So if you have gold and silver, physical gold and silver as a backup to the backup, you have something that you can deal with. So that's my view on gold and silver.

[00:04:34] However, how much I have, I don't have a lot of gold anymore because I sold it off about 20 years ago. Wish I wish I didn't. But, you know, it was trips to Romania, things like that. And, you know, you don't want to charge every time you fly to Romania. So that's just the way that went. But I have, I have a lot of silver.

[00:05:01] I don't know if it's a lot, but I have some. And I have some junk silver, you know, coins, old coins, silver coins. But I keep that on hand just in case. Okay. So if the dollar goes to crap and you can't, you know, it's not worth anything anymore.

[00:05:29] And Grover Cleveland is on the $500 bill. Yes. And we also have a $1,000 bill. These were bank notes that banks would use to exchange money back in the day before the internet. And they would actually transfer these big notes between banks. It wasn't something that people carried on them.

[00:05:56] And they're, you know, tracked and serial numbered and that kind of stuff. So, yeah, it's Grover Cleveland. And who's the other one? It's another weird president like Millard Fillmore. But I don't think it's Millard Fillmore. I'd have to, I'd have to Google that. But I actually saw these bank notes in the Smithsonian one time.

[00:06:23] And I wrote down, this is when I was 16, when I was in high school. And I wrote those presidents down because I thought, wow, how often do you see a $500 or $1,000 bill? But it's Grover Cleveland, I think on the $500 or the $1,000. And then there's another president that's not.

[00:06:50] So that's my idea of gold and silver just for what it's, and my idea of keeping a little cash on hand. You know, $1,000 anymore don't buy what it used to buy. But if you had $1,000 cash and the ATMs and electricity and all that went down, you could do some stuff. And what else?

[00:07:17] I've noticed chicken disappearing from Costco. Costco. People are going crazy, if you remember. And I'm not sure why. Is it the Trump talk of tariffs? Is it the idea that there's no eggs so soon there'll be no chicken? I don't know. I don't know. But gosh, I'm glad I'm a prepper.

[00:07:44] I have no worries. No worries. It worries me about other people, though, if they're this crazy buying all the chicken and stuff. But I don't worry about our food supply. Although we're down quite a bit. We've been freeze drying, too. Yeah, we have quite a bit of freeze dried different things.

[00:08:15] Now, we were freeze drying eggs just because we had so many of them. But we have some stew and some beans and stuff that Maria made. And we wanted to see what it was like to freeze dry it. So there you go. And I think the Patriot Power Hour guys. Oh, my gosh. Did you listen to their show this past week? It was awesome. Those guys are amazing.

[00:08:43] And the chicken biologist that James had on. And of course, Sarah Hathaway has redone the first season, remastered it and re-released it. That's really good. That's a blast from the past right there. Anyway, stay tuned to PBN. That's my thoughts. Hey, if you ever want to send me an email,
