Be willing to accept a lower standard of living. The expansion of the economy is due in large part to dumping the gold standard and instituting the Federal Reserve. \n\nGo back and look at the history that caused these changes.\n\nAs for the income tax, how would you propose paying for public goods?

Some US banks have international departments that will do it for you. The easiest way is to stop at a Bureau de Change in the Barcelona airport. You give them American dollars, they give you Euros or whatever currency you want.

As one of my finance professors so clearly stated it... "In God We Trust".  It is on every piece of paper and coin in the US.  There is no backing or "gold standard" of the almighty dollar anymore.  It is really just a highly accepted form of trade for a common tool for bartering.

take it to a bullion dealer - the prices are fairly well set - it is worth around a thousand dollars, there is a charge for storage etc. but the price should be around 90% of the actual oz. price.  you will make a hundred or so dollars more if you sell it private - at the rate - or slightly more.  Try a silver smith too - find them in the yellow pages, but first find out what the bullion dealer will buy it for. and what they sell it for - that is the least you will get for it.  they sell it for more than the stock price, and pay less than the stock price. (handling expenses)

You can do so temporarily as so many other Americans, by borrowing for consumption.  However the piper will have to be paid.\n\nA far better idea is postpone gratification and consume less than you earn.  The net result will be greater wealth and security, though less stuff.

I remember a couple of things, but look these up to be factual. He allowed the dollar to float, it was on the silver standard and now it is autioned. He allowed privet ownership of gold, he opened free trade with China. Most of these things have hurt the U.S. A. as the dollar is no longer worth a dollar. The very rich are invested in gold and not into things that will help the country grow and you are living the result of free trade with China. That has cost many American jobs. I hope this helps.

The real value of any currency is measured by checking it against the price of gold in that currency.  This is the only litmus test of real wealth that can be easily measured.  As of right now $1.00 is worth 1/545 of an ounce of gold.  \n\nAnother way to check was with something called the M3 index, which is just a count of all the US currency in circulation and in reserve in the world, but the Treasury Department just recently stopped reporting that number presumably so nobody would panic when the dollar gets wasted in the world economy soon.

I'd suggest that you do both. \n\nA pension fund is insurance, and it will pay off if the economy remains prosperous. Gold is insurance, and it will pay off if the economy goes into the toilet.\n\nThink about it. The Federal Government spent $620 billion more, last year, than it took in. The only way that massive hole in the budget can be plugged is to close down Department after Department, in the Executive Branch, or to raise taxes to the tune of $2,000 or more for every person in the country. If neither option is exercised, the dollar will have to lose value. That's just the way it is. And if the dollar loses value, then whatever you have in savings will also lose value. It's called inflation, and it is a killer of wealth.\n\nGold is a hedge against inflation. If inflation is high, the price of gold goes up, maintaining the security of your savings.\n\nThe price of gold didn't start going down, in the 80s, until the Government proved that it was serious about fighting inflation, and maintaining some sort of stability in the value of the dollar. The price of gold is going up, now, because the Government has proved that it doesn't give a damn about the value of the dollar. Inflation is already raging at a rate higher than it was, when Nixon initiated his failed attempt to control wages and prices, in the 70s.\n\nThe way I look at it, inflation will eat away at the savings you've invested in your pension fund. That's why I'd recommend buying gold bullion. But, on the off chance that we manage to muddle through, somehow, due to some sort of divine intervention, I'd keep contributing to my pension plan, too.\n\nLook at the price that you think gold will achieve, in the next few years. How many ounces of gold will you have to own, at that price, in order to be able to pay off your house? I'd suggest that you find a way to accumulate that many ounces of gold.\n\nOf course, there's always the risk of a second gold confiscation, in the US. They did it before, and they can do it again. Beware.
