Here’s Mark’s take on gold as a “chaos hedge”:

Mark Ford

I bought gold in 2004 because it seemed like cheap insurance against an event I deemed unlikely but possible… There is a chance, however small, that the world economy, so burdened with debt, will collapse.

I bought gold bullion coins, too, as an insurance against other possible—though unlikely—scenarios: a dirty bomb exploding in the U.S. and sending the economy into a tailspin… or a personal attack, from any number of sources, against my family’s wealth… or some other disaster to that scale.
