A few thoughts on the state of things

[Luci_ferson]

one of the good side affect of brewing booze is the co2 output.
brew it in your greenhouse and the extra co2 has a great affect on most plants.
I wouldn't bother hoarding gold so much though , as if finances all collapse even gold would be worthless.
only thing of any value would be food and land.

theres a good possibility the power would be off too, so unless you get a god relyable alternaticev source the 3d printer would be useless.
I imagine getting hold of the compounds it uses would be difficult after tshtf too so you would need to keep a large stock to make it worthwhile.
id probably invest the money in something more usefull. but you may have something planned the rest of us have no idea about.
