If I wanted to start another savings 'account' but, didn't want to use a bank or an envelope underneath my mattress, would it be smarter to buy gold or ammo. I feel gold is a more stable commodity but, with that said stable commodities and stocks generally go up in value but very slowly. Look at Coke or Disney for example. If you had 100 shares you wouldn't make a whole lot over 40ys vs penny stocks which you could have either made a killing or gone completely broke had you invested the same amount of money as with a larger company. I feel ammo is like this in the sense that it will fluctuate more but, unlike the penny stocks I doubt that the value would ever drop significantly below what it is right now. (I now I'm comparing apples to oranges here). My question is, with all that being said, would you rather invest in ammo or gold?
