I'd go for the gold. 30,000 years of history deserve more respect than 100 years of a weird economy with major problems and a dearth of good explanations. So, physical gold, some silver, some mining company stocks, and maybe diversify by buying some stock in an farm company in US. Have some cash stashed away, and maybe buy some index funds.

My ideal portfolio:

25% bullion (Mostly gold, some 14k gold rings, some silver, along with a digital balance and a jeweller's touchstone kit for determining purity).

15% cash in a sock.

16% mining company stock.

12% index fund.

7% ag company (basic foodstuff, like wheat or other cereals).

15% in a savings account.

1 pistol, 1 body armor and 3 years of ammo. Consider investing in self-defense and food.

I know, it's very reddit of me, but this way, if the shit hits the fan, you'll only lose a small amount of your portfolio, and the rest will go way up. If things are fine, you're fine. Not as fine as your peers, but fine nonetheless.
