So Dwayne johnson is gonna pay for everything? 

Thankfully all mine is in gold so I don’t have to worry.
You know, because if everything went to hell in a hand basket, I could give a couple pieces of gold for a loaf of bread.
Or if our currency was obsolete, I can just use gold everywhere!
i loaded up on these...

OOOOH OOOOOH It's got a movie star on it!

I seed that guy in Galaxy Quest and Futurama!
I opened this thread and immediately then looked over to the teller window and saw there was literally nobody in line. I guess they cleaned us out already and amazingly I'm still lending money out today.
did the Teller say anything?

Came here to make a snarky remark.

looks like you boys have it covered - great work gents

I have heard through the grapevine from someone I know that works at a large bank that apparently lots of people are pulling cash out of the banks. So much that the federal reserve is shipping billions of dollars to prevent bank runs. Obviously, the situation in DC is the reason why. The question to the surly collective is do you believe this and if so what should we do if that in fact is occurring for reals.

Why dont you go back to buying Directv gift cards from Russians and quit posting stupid shit?

Fortunately years ago I invested the RPM family fortune in NASCAR collectible scale cars. More specifically, Dale Earnhardt. Those babies go up in value every day. Retirement gonna be sweeeet!

False -- the currency of the future will be tailored Texan jerseys and rubber bullets.  Icono is, fortunately, all set.

Also wishing families were dead with people you disagree with.

A little gold and plenty of ammo are always good investments.  

You can't eat that gold, sport.

Well yeah but everybody has ammo. It's Texas. Imagine being the only idiot with no ammo.

I live in AZ (Scottsdale) that’s not really the case here and I’m sure it’s not in ATX either.

I live in Portland, We just gotta be careful about those milkshakes.

The bank run is confined to Houston. Locals are hoarding cash to buy season tickets to watch as UH joins and wins the Big 12 next year.

Nope. But I can make it into gold fangs so I can bring down one of my neighbors.

I'm afraid my ranged weapon would handily defeat your attempted oral attack. I mean, are we talking zombies? Cause the hardest part of the zombie apocalypse will be acting like I'm not excited.

Now, my caddie’s chauffeur informs me that a bank is a place where people put money that isn’t properly invested. 

 

I pulled all my money out and invested in lots of porn videotapes. Probably going to open a rental store.

I'm ready.  As soon as I heard about this, I took all of my money out and loaded up on pot metal, paint, and copper.  I'll make cheap military medals and trade them to North Korean generals for food and women.  I can't miss!

Yes, if I were to start downrange and you knew I was coming, you'd get me 99% of the time. That is why I would wait until you're holed up in the shitter, batin'. I'd let you finish and pull your pants up, then I'd drop down from the ceiling.

(gold fangs + tactical cunning = well-fed cannibalistic post-apocalyptic existence.)

I was going to go to Mexico and buy a bunch of hand-tooled leather purses for 3 dollars a pop, and then mark them up to 50 each for gringas, but then it occured to me that what JD Rockefeller woulda done is make the purses himself and cut out all those greedy artisans. Prolly how he got so rich and now so will I.

Even in the contest between man and steer, the issue is not certain.

Palladium is the only precious metal that is trending upwards, but if I find out where to buy me some, does minting coins make sense seeing as it is mainly used in catalytic converters?

Fuck it, I’ll just hoard more ammo. 

The fact that bernorange didn’t start this thread may be the most shocking thing of all.
