And do you really think that this guy's $100,000 is safe in the bank? YES YOU SAY, the money is insured for up to $100,000 dollars.....well, I got news for you, if everything goes down at the same time there is only 0.02 cents for every $1.00 dollar deposited...... and besides that, how much do you really think that the fiat will be worth?.

Oh yeah?.....let me tell you, you could buy a Can of Chile Con Carne for $1.00 and in two months it goes up to $1.25, right there you made a profit of 25% but you also bought it when they had it on special for 0.75 cents so that in your future you already made a 50% profit...

Or someone can simply come to your house and take it away from you.
Country's are build on trust. That the govermants gurantees that nobody breaks into your house and that it keeps the money valuable.
That might not work in each case, but in general the amount of people that break into your house to steal a can of Chile Con Carne are equally small to the chance that an hyper inflation destroys your money.
