#4Currently based on the state of the world I have been investing in freeze dried foods. They will only increase in value and can be traded / bartered for other things should monetary systems temporarily fail. I can always eat what I don't trade. They are officially rated to have 97% of their nutritional value and flavor for 25 years but in all probability may last for hundreds of years. My favorite item is the freeze dried coffee that to my surprise tastes very good. The freeze dried foods I purchased two years ago have already increased in value about 120% on average.
