"Hoarding gold and silver coins in the downpipes isn't what normal people do."
You're definitely right skol. 'Normal' people don't understand money on a basic level, let a lone the world economy. 'Normal' people don't understand gold and it's history, they don't know how to value it, they compare it to the Dow and other income producing assets etc. 'Normal' people don't think or prepare long term, especially the younger generation.
