So basically, I'm wondering if anyone here has a plan to accumulate a lot of wealth during SHTF and come out of it pretty good off. Im talking in a total societal breakdown too. Basically a situation that would be similar to the book Patriots or the like.
So what I'm really wanting to know is who plans on "taking advantage" as some would call it of people? Personally in that situation I would consider anything fair game. Basically who is stocking extra ammo, food, ect that you will use just for the purpose of trading for gold or silver? In a situation where someone is in need of food, water, ammo, you have the upper hand in trading for it.
An example would be buying a 100 pack of 12 gauge birdshot to keep back to trade to someone. You could charge an oz of silver per 10 shells or 1 oz of gold for the whole box, ect. Things like that.
This thought has came accross my mind a few times and wanted to get other people's opinions. And if i ever did anything like this, the trading would never take place near my residence or where I'm hunkering down. And yes, I know there is a risk of arming the enemy.
