Im not taking that too seriously as i have heard a number of normal people mention that.
We shall see, but the 24th is a Saturday & nothing happens on a weekend!

Didn't banks in Cyprus closed over a weekend in 2015 and didn't re-open for several weeks ?

Cash withdrawals were restricted and those accounts with €100k + deposit were frozen. There were long queues as people tried to take their money out.  Some depositors were given a hair cut, effectively a bail-in.

So I wouldn't bet on it.

I was watching earlier an interview to a woman that robbed her bank at gun point because they wouldn't let withdraw her money, this is in Libanon, where they are experiencing high inflation.

Done a quick google search and come up with this article.

Imagine when "robbers" all go into the bank at the same time, they will still need to queue up and take turn to rob the bank of their own cash. 😅

I remember saying to my neighbour about this sort of thing 12 years ago & mentioned possible civil war, he looked at me like i was crazy, but its quickly looking like i am a genius. ;) History repeats & humans forget far too quickly, judging by the move from lockdowns & masks to adopting a Ukranian family in the space of 2 weeks. ;) I almost bought 5kg of silver today, but did not realise it was cash only, but I have very little money in fiat anyway. 

Banks do own your 'money' and can without being even questioned take it. Building societies are following suite. 

I have spent a few hours trying to get my head around this potential 'event' at the weekend & what it will mean. 
After 2020 I can believe that such a thing is possible now, but it does not feel right to buy XRP or anything for that matter. 
It feel fundamentally wrong, which is why I have never got into crypto, well I did, then sold it all.
Bizarre, but I also have the FOMO stuff so I am a bit split.

I have enough physical & by all accounts this is part of a larger quantum shift in our collective reality where greed & stuff has no place anyway. 
My brain hurts. :P

Give a man a gun he can rob a bank.

Give a man a bank and he can rob the world!

Its a bit like a gambler. you only hear them speak of the times they won. Very rarely do they tell you about the times they lost 😐

Any investment is a gamble

The Sovereign is the quintessentially British coin.  It has a German queen on the front, an Italian waiter on the back, and half of them were made in Australia.

It was very difficult to get the gold price under control but we have now succeeded.  The US Fed was very active in getting the gold price down.  So was the U.K.

Yep, and they have really kept Gold price down in GBP 😂

The inferior man argues about his rights, while the superior man imposes duties upon himself.

He who has a why can bear almost any how.

Every act of beauty is a revolt against the modern world.

It makes no logical sense to me - I just consult the Oracle. :)

Of course the USD isn't strong, it's just not as weak.
