And only if you have it in your hot little hands when The End Comes. I have never understood how gold held by dealer is going to do you any good if the reason the dealer is selling it (econ collapse) comes about. Ammo and MREs are useful to tide you over until you get your first crop in. But to do that, you also need farming tools, seed, arable land, and farming skills. Just break into your nearest hardware and you will get everything you need for a personal plot. Since, if The End Comes parks, great expanses of green around building, etc. will suddenly become available, I think the land part is largely a non-issue.. outside of the deserts of course. -- Searching is half the fun: life is much more manageable when thought of as a scavenger hunt as opposed to a surprise party.
