Opinion piece......You should hold some mobile wealth because you  might need to send money overseas in middle of night (like to your kid, or business reason).  Piece of Mind = Cost of Volatity....

Author is financial adviser and says this happens with bigger clients.  Also discloses that he owns coins.

Thanks, this it was Marc Farber also said recently: You cant flee to Hong Kong with 10 Kilograms of gold (~half a million $$$) in a suitcase easily, but "with" bitcoins - no problem.

Yeah because customs would likely confiscate those metals but I imagine the big time metalheads will keep their loads buried and then ride out a terrible period. I like to stay mobile and flexible should the police state manifest itself even more so.

Sorry, but by "mobile", I meant the ability to send coins\money outside of bank hours.  Send coins and they can convert locally with changers.  Quotes attorney who says "Any strategy that relies on secrecy is a failure"...use reputable sites...
