    Not if the economy crashing causes increased inflation and interest rates, then you'd wish you had assets that hold value rather than currency which will lose its value.

    Although, given the numbers most Americans live paycheck to paycheck and don't have a wealth of assets or cash.

    I'm sure all of the Zimbabweans hoarding some large denimination $1,000 stacks of cash under their bed were still doing great after the 12mil% hyperinflation caused the central bank to issue $100,000,000,000,000 notes.
