You don't have to be a Wall St. banker to know that, despite some signs that we are experiencing a recovery, the economy is really a house of cards that may come crashing down soon. I have never owned a gun in my life until a couple of months ago. Hopefully, we will make it through the next couple of years with some semblance of societal normalcy, but there is certainly a chance of social upheaval if the value of the US dollar declines precipitously and if foreclosures and unemployment accelerate. Owning a gun or two for personal protection and learning how to use them may be a wise investment for anyone who has assets and a family to protect.
