Deutsche Bank is going to collapse. That isn't me reading crazy websites, that's what I'm told by my friend's mother, who has just retired from her job in finance. Why are they telling their citizens to stockpile? What do they think is going to happen in the coming months?

I don't think it's excessive paranoia to heed such a warning. It's not like I've been prepping since 9/11, which is when my distrust in the system really kicked into gear.

I think you're reading too much into things here. The German gov't is only updating advice that was given before. They're also on high alert after all the terrorist shit that's been going on there lately. It's not like they somehow believe the bank's collapse is going to lead to some catastrophic food shortage.

But hey if you have a house full of salt when the zombie apocalypse comes you'll probably be able to trade it for a big bag of weed on the black market.
