Value store, which will come in handy after US defaults on its debts.

In the extraordinarily unlikely chance of that happening you're going to want guns, ammunition, and a food supply, not digital Beanie Babies.

Value store is not an investment. And a US default is extremely unlikely.

In your opinion, what is the probability of that happening?

In my opinion, it will happen around 2040 with almost certainty, but probably in the form of hyperinflation out of debt, rather than actual default.

If you think hyperinflation is coming on, you should be buying as much real estate as you can right now and lock in a 30-year low rate financing. When hyperinflation hits, your debt will just evaporate away!

Are there specific reasons for that particular date?
