As John Wesley Rawles said, "Hindsight is 20/20." No matter how well we plan, something is going to throw a wrench into our most careful preparations. If worst becomes even worser, I'm pretty confident a barter economy will sooner or later emerge, and we'll be able to barter or trade for things we didn't foresee needing. Personally, I think .22LR will always be in demand, so I set aside extra ammo just for trading. Gold and silver? Maybe. Bitcoin? I don't think so.

Onward and upward,
