the paper isnt real wealth

There is absolutely nothing with financial value that exceeds what somebody else will give you for it, and what somebody will give you for somehting depends on the economy and the practical utility of the object.

The US accounts for about 20% of the world's economy, so the effects of a major economic problem isn't going to be limited to the US. 1000 pounds of gold or 5 million Euros might not be worth much (or anything) more than the current equivalent in US dol... [ More ]

Buy up some acerage in a secluded area that gets plenty of annual rainfall and has good soil and a good growing season. Build a well defended rock walled fortress with plenty of room for family and friends. Stock up on a couple of years worth of provisions, heirloom seeds, canning materials, etc. Bring along a copy of the Declaration of Independence and the Amendments to the Constitution for good measure.

Government buying billions of rounds of bullets, President visiting Israel, being guaranteed another 10 years of aid.

Banging the war drum against Syria, or Iran, maybe. Who knows.

There will be no time for lottery, or anything else.

I just wanna win the p-3 straight just one more time.

Especially after what might happen in the country Cyprus if their new law goes into effect. They propose to hit all savings accounts with 10% tax in order to save the banks over there. Its all over the news. I know Wall Street is watching intently. There is nothing they would love more than take from us again.

I drove that 4x4 road, I think it's called the Congress Highway, from Prescott down to that ghost town, Crown King, and had a beer (or 2) in the saloon there a few years back.

I heard about a big fire closing in on the town a couple years ago.

I hope the saloon didn't burn.

If the dollar collapses, paper money won't be worth anything, gold, silver, seeds, barter items, lead, lot and lots of lead, full metal jackets preferred.

Strange question about Lottery vs Economic Collapse

Bagent — Tue, 19 Mar 2013 14:50:54 GMT

I know this is going to be a strange question here, but what can a lottery winner do to protect his/her winnings against a possible dollar collapse? Do you take the money and transfer it all to a different country money system? What are some options that can be looked at
