Buy A House With Silver?

``While we wait for our interest rates (and eventually our housing markets) to return to sanity, the obvious step for future-buyers to take today is to buy silver -- to reduce the price they ultimately pay for a house to a small fraction of current prices... The more general point which I do wish to argue here is the necessity to look for new ways to express prices which are not dependent on/connected to the worthless paper currencies of Western bankers.''
