"Cuban seed tobaccos grown in Nicaragua and Cuba. The wrapper would be from Cuba. The binder leaves would be from Nicaragua. For the ligero tobacco in the filler, he would use two types, one from Esteli and the other from Jalapa in Nicaragua. The other filler components, seco and viso, would come from Cuba, the former from Villa Clara, the latter from Pinar del Rio. That Cigar, he says with pride, would score 100 points." -Don Pepin Garcia
precious metals are good. oil. base metals. invest in foreign companies that deal in these, that are in politically safe locations.
if you have debts, i would lock in an interest rate for as long a period as i could. (ex. if you lock in at 6% for 15 years, not sure what the numbers are in the US, and rates skyrocket, you win big time. )
farmland. should someone want to invest in land, farmland would be, imo, better than other types of real estate.
should serious inflation hit, it will likely be world wide, and i'm not sure holding other currencies would protect anyone...

Did you mean to say "when inflation IS high"? or BEFORE inflation goes up?
I'm going with bullion, like half the World is I think...Since I can't afford Kansas.

That's what I have been telling my wife this past year. I picked up a Fender Strat and a Gibson Les Paul for investment purposes.
Cool. I've got some Baseball cards from the early '90's, interested?

Brothers, let me remind you of the words of Charles M. Province, U.S. Army:
It is the Soldier, not the minister Who has given us freedom of religion.
It is the Soldier, not the reporter Who has given us freedom of the press.
It is the Soldier, not the poet Who has given us freedom of speech.
It is the Soldier, not the campus organizer Who has given us freedom to protest.
It is the Soldier, not the lawyer Who has given us the right to a fair trial.
It is the Soldier, not the politician Who has given us the right to vote.
It is the Soldier who salutes the flag, Who serves beneath the flag, And whose coffin is draped by the flag, Who allows the protester to burn the flag.
