What is everyone's thoughts on the value of the dollar going forward? With rumblings of the possibility that many countries begin or at least try to switch off the USD as a reserve currency in the next 5-10 years where does that leave the USD? If it does tank as would be expected are commodities the way to go as far as "proofing" yourself against that scenario?

I am not too sure about the real probability of the above happening but I am graduating in June and getting off the parents' buck at that point so I have a pretty vested interest in managing my assets starting now.
