Saving in gold and bitcoin does help, especially in the long run but most, if not all, of the money saved in those forms of hard money is being earned in fiat, so everyday spending money becomes worth less and less, lowering purchasing power and standard of living even for us enlightened few able to save the value they've created.

I'm not trying to be a contrarian, my question is whether anyone knows of a feasible way to escape that hell and not starve to death while sitting on gold coins that, once spent, become less and less replacable because of monthly pay cuts.
