With very little money at your disposal, and since I firmly believe that price inflation is going to continue to accelerate - especially once the banks finally catch their breath and start spraying leveraged untold multiples of QE money that is now stuck in their stinky liquidity trap bowels and intestines - out of their rear-ends and finally into the economy:
One of the best investments you can make is in things of actual worth that you already know that you MUST buy in the future. Things you are already buying now to survive, the prices of which you KNOW will rise. One of those things is FOOD.
By all means, invest some of your money in food storage - a major investment in anything with a shelf life of more than six months. Not just as a disaster survival hedge, but as an actual investment...in yourself. You will be consuming tomorrow's stored goods that were bought at today's prices - and that is money you would have been forced to spend, in much larger amounts, anyway. It will cost more money to buy the same goods tomorrow, which will effectively eat into the value of anything else you invest in now. So stock up today, while it's still cheap relative to tomorrow. On a small individual investment and survival scale, food can be an enormous personal hedge on the currency wealth-siphoning machine.
