Inflation
In the past, the people that survive inflationary period the best are entrepreneurs that have an essential product on which they can raise the price to match inflation. Though inflation may make obtaining food difficult for the majority, but everyone needs to eat. What about toilet paper manufacturers? Do you think they will survive? The trick is to find the right product. I personally like real estate.
Hyperinflation
In the event of hyperinflation, the buying power of the currency is eroded so quickly that even product prices can't keep up with the increasing cost of raw goods. In the end the currency is destroyed and has to be replaced. The people that financially survive hyperinflation are the gold "horders." As long as they get in early enough, the intrinsic value of gold protects their wealth. There is quite a bit of other preparations like food storage that are also necessary.
Famine
The United States has less than 10-20 days of grain in their silos at any given time. Lately the reserves have been getting smaller. We are one disaster away from a food shortage. The United States produces about 2/5's of the worlds grain. So if we experience famine here, the world will experience famine. The people that will survive famine are farmers and food "horders." I am a food horder and have enough food to feed my family for a year. I also have enough seeds to plant 5 acres of food. UrbanSurvivalTools.com has some really good deals on food storage. Other resources are my Financial Survival Kit.
Pandemic
Especially with the engineering of our food supply, the likelihood of a pandemic hasn't been so great since the dark ages. Then there are biological weapons and terrorist to worry about. If you are prepared you shall not fear. Those that will survive a pandemic are the ones that are prepared to "shelter in." See ready.gov/pandemic for information on how to survive a pandemic.
Pollitical Collapse
Occupy Wall Street is a small but frightening example of the frustration and resentment building in the citizens of the United States. Let's face it. Our political system is broken. Our elected leaders are corrupt. The only thing that can fix it is an uprising of citizens. Either through revolution or the more preferred uprising at the ballot boxes. Unfortunately, I think it will be a revolution within our lifetimes. The only thing you can do to survive a political collapse is be internationally diversified. I'm not talking about your portfolio. I'm talking about citizenship. Sovereignman.com is an excellent source on this kind of survival.
Social Unrest
Social unrest will happen as a result of any of the above items. It could also be a catlyst of it's own. The people that will survive social unrest are the Urban Survivalist. Know how to survive and protect your family and your home in the event of social unrest by visiting www.the-urban-survivalist.com.
Everything
The bottom line is that we don't know what will happen. What I do know is that the government will do what ever it can do to prevent this kind of collapse. However, it is inevitable. They may be able to buy time, but it will only make it worse. In the mean time, all we can do is prepare. The people that will survive are the people that are prepared. That's you, and that why you should stay tuned to Financial Survivalist.
