The ability to have power can't be understated. I think this advice is the best so far.$2k isn't much to work with...
So much depends on where you really think things are going, if you really only expect recession and shortages, you might be best off holding your $2k as a hedge against rising prices.
If you expect system collapse, water supply shold be your first consideration... Imagine trying to garden even a few raised beds without it!
Assuming you don't already have some off-grid power, $2k would buy 1.2kw solar panels, 4 or 5 Everstart 29DC batteries, a charge controller and a 500w inverter...
That would be enough system to power a small chest freezer or refrigerator, refrigeration being one the most important considerations after water supply, IMO.
Assuming you can still get gas for it...get a generator
Or dieselAssuming you can still get gas for it...
propane stores wellAssuming you can still get gas for it...

The $2K he has to play with won't get much gold or ammo.If you already have a shitload of ammo, buy gold ingots.

The Free Shit Army will have plenty of appropriated weapons and ammo. I saw about 4 of them down the street this morning just milling around looking for open garage doors.
