I thought about the cash part, but what if we get downgraded December then that cash won't be worth much. Perhaps South Africans should look at the bitcoin route as a means to protect you in a way? I do not understand bitcoin and currency all that much so I do not know if bitcoin is good, but to me it sounds like a better option than cash under the bed or bank. When I say cash I am referring to ZAR notes.
I doubt our money would become that much more "worhtless". The Rand is increasing in strength, the risk downgrade is getting less albeit it still being a big risk.
