You missed the point completely and obviously do not understand the basic function of money. I, not anyone else said metal is more important than having food shelter and safety.
The purpose of having silver is to have something to exchange goods with if you are missing or have excess of those things. Money is a means of exchange, and nothing on this planet does a better job than rare shiny metals.
When there is no food in the grocery store, who are you going to trade your shiny metal with?
You exchange what people consider valuable NOW for the necessities of life that will keep over the long term (food, fuel).
What is it about you that you're too stupid to understand that having what you need to live beats having SHINY METAL that you can trade for what you need to live?
Here's a protip: when people are starving, those with food aren't going to give one fuck about your silver.
Having food and guns and safety without means of exchange is just retarded. As are you, since you are completely unable to see the purpose in having means of exchange.
Having food and guns and safety without means of exchange is just retarded.
I can't top your own idiocy. I'll just leave it here.
