>Ok in a survival situation, what can you do with gold? I'd bury it, memorize the stars at the location correlated to landmarks. I'd then go find food/shelter/security. Fightout the next year moving from woods to woods. Finally settling down after most people have flamed out. I'd join up other and start to rebuild cities. Then after a generation, I'd go get my gold and use it as collateral in trade for whatever currency is in use at that time. I'd start to generate income with my newly acquired assets, setting up a buisness for my family and community.
