3. Sell

Tuesday

So I sell my house and investments. Maybe not the best time to hold a lot of dollars, given that the dollar itself might become worthless. Remember, the vast majority of dollars are held overseas. Once the dollar is no longer the currency of exchange, all those dollars come home, and they will be worthless. ‘A million reichmarks to buy a loaf of bread.’
