Israel and Palestine situation is worsening day by day, Iran has attacked Pakistan who is a US Ally. The Yemen thing along with the Russia Ukraine and China Taiwan situation is surely going to escalate and gradually all countries will be involved and forced to pick sides. Only a matter of time until a US city is attacked via terrorism or at sea for the markets to collapse. I am living frugally, been maxing out mega backdoor Roth and backdoor Roth and 401k till the limit, HSA too and now feel that with war and upcoming inflation I'm screwed. Can't sit on cash as inflation will devalue that. War will cause bank run and stock market collapse and retirement accounts will be wiped out. If I get drafted and killed there was no point of sacrificing and living frugally to max out tax advantaged retirement accounts. What are you guys thinking?

Buy bitcoin. Hopefully ww3 is not coming though. What is even the point of war? Cant we just bomb the planet and kill everyone?
That’s some solid Cold War thinking right there
Pakistan seems has a good relationship with both China and US, rare situation
Iran has entered the chat...
Invest in seeds and self reliance. Learn how to homestead. If all that happens, we’re pretty screwed on any investment.
When was the last time someone bought something with a gold bar? Bitcoin on the other hand…
Invest in Guntur Crackers and fireworks and Muthoot finance🎇
The US is the most naturally and militarily protected country in the world, we have the most advanced tech that other countries don’t even know about and their weapons are no match for I’m not worried at all I have a lot of guns tho
What kind of gun is best for household protection? I’m in the market
Easiest and cheapest would be a 9mm Glock. A suppressed short barrel AR15 would be the best but that’s a very expensive and time consuming endeavor because you’d have to do all the paperwork for the suppressor and register the SBR and wait for the forms to pass
I have ~300k in gold and silver. Will at least be tradable and hold value against a useless fiat paper bill. Edt:coins and bars 100k+ in paper money which I would use first ~15k in Monero mostly, then Ethereum and other similar tokens. But if there is no internet...then what. You're 29, they're loading up zoomers/gooners first. I doubt they'd make it to your SS range as it cuts off at 26. The US has the largest military in the world. We are the world superpower. Everyone else is 20-30+yrs behind in military tech. The concrete on our ankles is Biden/Harris weak leadership and competency. Who knows how many sleeper jihadi's came through our southern border. Move out of a major city if you're seriously worried about it, those will get hit first. Then you'd be out of water and power depending on the size of the boom. No home-turf land war (blue states would struggle more) could be won against us, no Sea battle anywhere could cripple us. Not a doomsday prepper. Not a conspiracy theorist. If this were to happen however, I'd spend the cash first and buy some freezers and fill them with meat and other goods. Ammo. Buy propane, a fuel truck and a Nissan leaf or something cheap. LNW:625k
Immutable money, infinite frontier, eternal life. Mankinds consensus. Bitcoin
I recommend you follow Balaji Srinivasan to hear a different opinion on US being the world military superpower. In 1990 US steal production was 10x bigger than China. Now China has it 15x bigger than US. US has not been chin checked in a while. Americans have the memory of being the superpower, but it is no longer reality
This is why you have to have kids. Including 2-3 male heirs who can continue your family name. If you have no kids it’s all wasted either way, either in your senior years with a limp dick on the casino floor, or hedonistic living when you’re younger.
I am getting strong Indian arrange marriage vibes here
Buy gold! Hoard kilos and kilos of physical bars
Going all in on Lakshmi chit funds.
