A sound setup like that’s not going to be cheap

This is why I'm investing in girl scout cookies. They will have a high trading value AND are edible. The perfect investment vehicle.

AND they're easily frozen, good for long term storage!

What's the Thin Mint / guzzoline exchange rate?

[–] ExcessShiv@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 year ago

About 0.1 banana

[–] Bronzebeard@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 year ago

That depends on who rules Barter Town

[–] sunbrrnslapper@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Probably 5 thin mints per gallon. In my mind, they are about $1 each. 😉

Counterpoint: If we had taken this thinking in the 80s, when the first Mad Max movies were made, we would have missed out on a lot of money saving.

My point is: don't let movies or some bad recent news guide your planning too much.

In the 80s it was a fantasy, not a real prospect

That’s what Reagan wanted you to believe.

As opposed to tye christofascists who own all the banks deciding what you can abd can't spend your money on.

Saving is censorship. Spend the money you get on infrastructure. Invest in people.

Yup, if you succumb to the mentality that this meme is joking about you'll one day find yourself old, poor and dependent on other people.

[–] HK65@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Just to be clear, we're all already poor and dependent on other people

[–] Geometrinen_Gepardi@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I hope you guys get better.

[–] HK65@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

That includes you if you don't live on the Sentinel Island or something.

Land, food, and ammo will become the currency.

[–] diptchip@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Maybe replace land with lamb.

[–] Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 7 points 1 year ago

You should save bottlecaps for the future

[–] Steamymoomilk@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 year ago

Good movie btw. Its mad max fury road!

From the same director who crafted Babe: Pig in the city, this movie was better than it had any right to be.

when world trade routes collapse the first thing to run out is going to be gas, there is no world where you have no water but plenty of diesel xD

If you'd saved some money, you could afford your own apocalypse truck made from scrap!

[–] plumbercraic@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 1 year ago

Laughed so hard when that dude showed up. Also loved the bag boys chanting "v8" - what a top film.

Also, the christofascists who own the banks control all that money you're saving.

This is a clear case of zombie rockerophobia.

[–] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I am saving money...

To buy a bunker...
