You can’t eat gold, folks. And you can’t eat silver. Everybody has to eat to stay alive, and that means everybody needs a constant stream of food just to keep breathing. That’s why investing in food makes so much sense. And by “investing in food,” I mean any or all of the following: • Investing in storable food that you can save on the shelf and keep for future use or barter. • Investing in your own gardening skills so that you have the know-how to produce food when needed. • Investing in non-hybrid garden seeds so that you have the genetic blueprints to grow food that can propagate itself generation after generation. • Investing in farmland — especially farmland with water — that offers the fertility and climate to produce food. • Investing in educational courses that teach you how to create food through a variety of methods: Wildcrafting, gardening, sprouting and so on.
