What will you do to get by if severe hyperinflation hits? | |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 36411255 I believe I can tolerate high inflation. This ^^^^ I embraced minimalism quite awhile ago. doesnt matter what you can survive on. you dont live in a vacuum. you wont get to just carry on in post ww2 prosperity while your neighbors are stripping out copper from the abandoned house next to yours. That won’t happen where I live. you live in the US though, right? you dont have to go to the world, the world will come to you. |

(OP) User ID: 8393653 United States03/19/2022 11:00 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Max the credit cards out buying tangible assets, then default. Pay the unsecured debt, deficiency judgement or not, for pennies on the dollar, or don't, and let it fall off your report after 7-8 years without ever acknowledging the debt. No debtor prisons in the states, and everything mentioned is 100% legal by their own system. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76016467 Still hold the tangible assets while they creep in price. Convert as needed for necessities as inflation pushes up prices. Yes, why not use the corrupt financial system to your favor; they've been using it against you all this time. Turn the tables. My personal problem with that strategy is that, in my heart, I'd consider it unethical, and I don't think I could do it with a clear conscience. |

We have solar panels, so we can watch some movies or play video games during the day...even if the power and internet goes out. Honestly other than losing social media, life wouldn't change all that much! hahaha don't kid yourself other people are not responsible, hyper inflation entails a cataclysm for ordinary society because the vast majority of people are short sighted and oblivious to the danger. this will manifest itself as danger for you, and anyone they resent for not sharing their misery, you will become an object of jealousy an anger to them. no one will enjoy what is coming in any earthly sense. it is going to suck no matter if you are prepared or not. If it's simply economic problems, I don't think that'll kill many people. It's really just a matter of how uncomfortable life will get. |

In real hyperinflation, the inflation eats your investments. You could have millions and have nothing. Like having millions in confederate currency after the civil war. I guess you can burn it in the fire place.

Quoting: BRIEF Bullshit it has. Back before it was legal I could get oz of hydro for 150 oz, I could get just decent weed; for 45-55 an oz, now it all goes by the gram and costs far more.
