Fuck, even the gold isn't safe.

Gold isn't terribly useful as a metal. Sure it's valuable but mostly because people see it as valuable and perceptions can change.

Everyone needs a place to live and on top of that land can be used for making money even if land itself isn't as lucrative.

The same can be said for banknotes, they are quite useless as paper, they are mostly valuable because people see them as valuable and perceptions can change

Right but at least bank notes are easy to use and don't require a scale.
