Got gold?

The internet is full of people who think they have it figured out. Don't bother to argue with them, time and experience is the best of teachers.

With that said, I in no way think we will see hyperinflation. Stagflation, now thats another story. IF hyperinflation did happen though, it would be time for me to leave this country.
