While you will lose a % when the forced conversion happens, you will still be able to 'live' afterward, just with zero anonymity, and far less freedom, if you play by the rules.

But to answer the question:

• Pay off outstanding bills that can effect livelihood ( like mortgage )

Stocking up on :

• Food ( do this anyway.. but if the transition is sudden, may be more important )
• Precious metals ( bartering )
• General bartering goods like booze and cigarettes
• Ammo ( will end up being restricted soon, watch what the credit card companies are doing now with tracking purchasing of guns and ammo ... preparing )
• Anything else that will become 'dis-allowed' when this all goes down ( anything that conflicts with ESG, for starters )

• Have some crypto anyway, as even if its blocked from 'cash out' transactions and exchanges are banned, its going to be hard to ban the concept in a practical sense. It will go underground and be a barter system.

If you truly believe this, what are you doing to prepare?

I would agree until now.. They just proved they can do with with crypo too, even more anonymous ..  That recent mess with the dude that funded the DNC with billions of crypto, that FTX stuff.

I don't believe cash will be crushed soon, if just because politicians themselves need it for their dirty deals. They are not going to ruin their own underground activities so easily. Still, I foresee a drastic drop of the value of money and I think one should braze for it, if just for different reasons.

Even tho we started as a rural community, they have outlawed "farm animals" in most of the city, even as pets. Have to be specifically zoned for farm to do it ( and much of that is now gone, which i rant about often )  Another reason i want to move. not that i want a bunch of chickens in my yard or something, but its the principle that i should have the option, as long as i dont interfere with anyone else.

Same way up in the big town north ( Indy )

I have been laundering my own cash for a while and turning it into non-liquid assets. The rationale is that when shit hits the fan, it is money the first thing they take. Hens and geese and the like, on the other hand, are productive, can be exchaged, and are not registered (actually, they are supposed to be, but I am not going to register any of my animals, and nobody in my town will).
