are you preparing for a possible dollar (usd) collapse? (how?)

buying gold, silver, palladium, copper and platinum. the first two i am thinking about new currencies. the last three for the perpetual need for the metals in industry. i also have invested in numismatic coins. they are small portable and easy to hide around the house. i only collect silver coins, so even if the world really blows up and numismatics goes out the window, i can depend on them forming a barter system through the content value of the silver. the problem with collectable items is that they are easy to see. for example, a nice painting just shouts out "steal me!". i don't buy large gold coins. as long as the coin is below 1/4 oz gold i collect it. if the dollar does finaly collapse, to be honest it will be so bad that i think weapons will be order of the day. do i think it will collapse...nah never.
