Yes, it is underappreciated in urban circles how much owning physical assets (land, reliable fuel-efficient vehicles, fruit trees, tools, wood for construction & heat) help weather rough times. They're very frequent in history, but a scant memory for many in the west. Digital IOU assets will not completely cut it.
