Just a question for y'all. Over the past several years, I have heard countless people saying to purchase gold and silver and "as the dollar crashes, gold will increase in value". I have seen gold and silver increase a good bit over the past few years, but my question is - lets say the dollar does crash and the banks close and its mad max, what good will all this gold and silver be? As it stands, I don't know of any vendors that accept gold/silver as payment. I understand that gold and silver can be bartered and traded. There are plenty of farmers markets in my area that may accept the metals as barter, but there will be plenty of vendors that won't accept it. 

What is the purpose of buying gold and silver if few people will accept it? Even if I am keeping cash on hand, why would I buy gold or silver?
