Alternative Investments, Financial Survival Information, Surviving Financial Collapse

Alternative investments, financial survival information, and surviving financial collapse have become a main form of financial discussion today. Normally relegated to the sideshow of any main stream financial media, now these ideas are defining the playing field.

Alternative investments include anything outside of the mutual fund, bonds, S&P500 stocks, and annuity environment. Gold, silver, metals, commodities, currencies, farm land, and certain forms of corporate bonds fall into the general purview of the alternative investment arena. There are many ways to get into this pool, that go beyond any market traded investments and that can preserve wealth.

Financial survival information takes the focus from strictly growth, profit and dividends or cash flow to the more basic requirement of getting our money back or wealth preservation. Inflation, hyperinflation, currency collapse, bank closures, currency controls, price controls, and possibly currency shortages fall under this classification. The U.S. and much of the world has had a slow motion inflation in progress for many decades. Now the engine is revved for much higher rates of inflation to hyperinflation and complete destruction of both currencies and the banks.

Surviving financial collapse has become a central topic across the blogosphere. With Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Spain, Latvia, Hungary, and others falling into economic isolation and shut off from the markets, this is a key topic to address for learning how to navigate these dangerous waters. The primary difficulty is choosing which currency to move to. How to move currencies can be challenging becomes all governments are thieves, and criminal and want to keep our money in their system.

The Financial Survival Center focuses on these economic collapse issues, providing strategies, resources, links, and analysis for predicting when the collapse will hit and what to do to protect ourselves.
