    Who remembers the member who was here.    Sold gold to buy Bitcoin, sold bitcoin when went to $20k, bought a fair few kg of gold again. Gold jumped. Sold gold bought house got questioned about tax then disappeared.       That was someone that traded his way up.    
    think he was buying initially for £750/Oz.    Would be interesting what is worth more now, property, gold or Bitcoin.           Think he was high up in post office so might have other things to think about now

  2. I think you need to keep all your options open, there maybe an emergency where cash is not a suitable payment method while if there is a major outage cash will be all you can use.

    A lot depends on your situation, I am retired with no rent or mortgage to pay so I personally keep a couple of thousand under the mattress and a chunk in Premium Bonds.

    I was recently diagnosed with Parkinsons and while I don't class this as an emergency it prompted me to sell a large portion of my gold while I am still able to be in control of the process. It has taught me that we don't always end up in the situation we imagine.

    Don't worry @Roy I still have my collection of half sovs!
