RE: Jamie Dimon says to Buy Bullets, not Bitcoin

Well, there are worse things you could do with your money. However, my favorite bolt action rifle was a Japanese Arisaka 6.5mm that shot 1/4 minute of angle groups. Also, in an economic crash I would rather have a semiauto, or even select fire weapon to defend lives and property with. And you don't have to buy them anymore, because if you have a 3D printer you can print most of the firearm, and then using a bucket of salt water and a 12v car battery you can rifle a steel tube to make a barrel. Modern technology is amazing!
While it's true you can buy better weapons, and ammunition, depending on how long, and how hard, the economy is depressed that may be something you can only do once, and investing in the capacity to make your own will more make you a wealthy man the longer and harder such depression proceeds. That would be a good investment.
The American continent is so large that I wonder if products made by individuals using 3D printers sell well?
The world I live in is narrow and poor, so it is difficult for individuals to purchase 3D printers. Even if individuals purchase 3D printers and produce products with them, they cannot sell them.
The overlords forbid individuals like me from manufacturing and selling products using 3D printers.

In East Asia, Japan and China dominate the 3D printer industry. They produce and sell 3D printers for factories. There is no market in East Asia where individuals like me can buy 3D printers and produce products with them and sell them.
East Asian overlords specifically ban individuals from making guns with 3D printers.
Some East Asians have said that American bolt-action rifles are essential for survival in anarchy.
They said Americans own bolt-action guns to survive the apocalypse.
They rate American bolt-action guns as the best guns for hunting and survival.
They said Americans make the best guns in the world and are skilled at using them.
PS: What do you think about keeping my assets in an American bank?
When the bank runs start no bank is safe, better to put it into metals, specifically silver, tools, and food production, imo.
Third party risk is off the charts, anything not in your own hands when the balloon goes up is probably not coming back.
Guns and ammo for everybody.™

Dear @antisocialist !
Thank you for advice!
I have found the AR-15 platform to be suitable to most tasks rifles can be put to, and though they are far less accurate than my Arisaka, they will usually get more lead downrange fast enough to make up for it.
I do not recommend banks anywhere. The last time I read the ToS of a bank it explained that any money I deposited on account became the bank's money, and I was granted their promise to pay it to me on demand. However, several banks (five, as I recall) did not repay me my money, but kept it some years ago, and I was unable to gain relief through the courts. They just stole my money, and that was American banks in America taking an American's money.
I do my business with good people by other means. In my experience banks are neither people nor good.
Dear @valued-customer !
An AR-15-style rifle is a weapon I cannot import from overseas. I would have to be a US citizen to buy one.😅
Since I have absolutely no experience handling guns, I had to get some basic training using a bolt-action rifle first.
An AR-15-style rifle is a semi-automatic rifle, so I think it would be dangerous for me to use!
I think bolt action rifles are the safest for hunting and survival!
I wonder what kind of rifle you have?
Many East Asians claim that Americans make and use the best hunting and survival rifles in the world.
I assumed you were storing your wealth in cryptocurrency!
Thank you for kind advice!

Oh no. The USG manages to get them into the hands of all kinds of non-citizens, particularly Muslim Jihadis, European Nazis, Israeli Terrorists, and etc. I bet if you posed as an homocidal ex-Shinriko Aum incel claiming to be intent on destroying some American landmark or other, some spooks would set you up with an arsenal mounted on a Toyota Hilux, and maybe even a cadre of devout followers (and double crossing snitches and spies), and an immense fortune, tax free. /s
I did describe one, although I didn't mention the Timney trigger, custom sporterized stock, or the Weaver fixed 4x scope (which most skilled snipers will deride passionately, because at 100M the post of the crosshair covers ~10cm from left to right, but is extremely rugged for hunting equally rugged terrain (and inexpensive when you inevitably break them falling down a cliff, or something), and provides almost instant target acquisition in forest cover where shots >100M are scarce as hen's teeth). The 6.5 Arisaka also has the strongest action ever tested AFAIK, that could not be broken by packing the cartridge case with any commercially available smokeless powder trying to turn them into grenades. Plus, the safety mechanism is a beautiful engraved chrysanthemum on the back of the bolt, a feature no modern firearm manufactured for military use has, or ever will have again. Because the 6.5 cartridge can use a range of projectiles from <100 grains to >180 grains, and this rifle shot to sub-minute of angle accuracy, I am willing to appropriately load it to hunt any game animal in N. America - except Brown bear, which I will not hunt with less than .30 caliber magnums.
Also, you must remember I am an American. I do not have 'a' rifle. You have to think in terms of arsenals when you consider the arms Americans keep and bear. Firearms have myriad use cases. Some of them need to be useful at night, requiring night vision scopes, flashlights, and laser sights. Some need to not have sights at all, but to be pointed just in front of flying birds and deliver birdshot suitable in size and spread to the species hunted (shotguns aren't rifles either, being smooth bore). Some need to deliver 200+ grains of lead half a kilometer into the shoulder of game animals weighing over half a ton, and some need to be fired hundreds of times in an afternoon, one shot at a time, into paper targets, just for fun and to train new shooters.

I started my sons shooting a single shot .22 LR with the worst buckhorn iron sights I have ever seen, because the most important thing to learn about firearms is how not to shoot yourself or anyone else accidentally, and the second most important thing is to learn to use the sights and arm they're on, so once you know how to use the crappiest sights you really can only get better when you start using better ones.
At one time or another I have owned most popular calibers that are available commonly in America, and reloaded every centerfire cartridge I could to determine the most accurate, fastest, longest range, and etc. load for that arm and cartridge. I grew up reloading ammunition, and gave a speech on it when I was 11.
However, asking an American about their arms is akin to asking one about their penis. It's an extremely personal question that, if you don't know them well, might be considered prying and offensive. Unless you're planning a hunt or doing some plinking, it's not a topic most guys feel comfortable discussing with a new acquaintance.
Dear @valued-customer !
Do you think an American elementary school student can understand your political and diplomatic English?😂
Some East Asians are now claiming that a civil war is brewing in the United States.
So, They tell individuals to buy American-made bolt-action rifles before the world descends into anarchic apocalypse.
I understand you were claiming that Americans would buy automatic rifles and start a civil war!😂
I guess you praised the durability of the 6.5 Arisaka. I'm amazed at how well the Japanese make guns!
I remember the 6.5 Arisaka's firepower being weaker than American rifles. For hunting grizzly bears, the American 7.5mm Springfield would be better.
I don't know the difference between a rifle and the arms!😅
I have absolutely no knowledge about guns so I have a hard time understanding what you're saying!
I'm surprised you've been using a gun since you were 11! Many East Asians claim that Americans always own guns to fight criminals and war.😦
My esteemed elder brother Steve often told me that my awkward and rude English could make people feel uncomfortable, angry and insulted.
Steve probably guessed that I might get beat up by Americans!😆
I will remember your kind advice!
I hope your health and long life!
Arms are all forms of weaponry, from pointy sticks to bombers. Rifles specifically refer to personal arms with a twisting system of grooves in the barrel, causing metal slugs to spin as they proceed down the barrel of the shouldered firearm that stabilizes them in flight, greatly increasing the accuracy of firearms.
I was teaching others how to make their own ammunition since I was 11. I was quite experienced by then, having begun using firearms since about the time I was out of diapers. I also began teaching my sons to use firearms at the age of three.
Be well.
