The CASH Scream Room
Currently paying homage to the Intel Celeron in my avatar—the processor that allowed a low-income family like mine to afford a computer in the '90s.

At 0.5% just stuff hard currency under the mattress instead alongside your gold. Maybe in a years time it might have gained 50% in stock purchase power (shares down -33%), or 50% more ounces of gold, or long dated treasuries paying a higher yield.
