No, the first rule is to have a plan. Then make sure you have tested it to be sure it works.

The gold and silver story reminds me of my own experience. When Y2K was approaching coworkers were talking about their preparations. One absolutely abhorred guns of any kind and felt no one but government should posses any firearms. He was talking about the water and food he had stored away and asked what things I had stocked up on. I looked him in the eye and said; “Nothing, I have guns and know places where to find such things already squirreled away.” He had a shocked look, spun around and walked away.

The first rule of being prepared is not telling anyone you're prepared.
