This sounds like a terrible idea.
1. Their economy is worse than ours.
2. US government sanctions could make your investment worthless.
3. Russian government sanctions could make your investments worthless.
With as close as it's been getting to all out war over there, I bought some relatively cheap SPY puts as insurance on the gains I currently have in my portfolio.

What about picking up some rubles? As low as they are getting they are bound to pick back up at some point. I've never ventured into that form of gambling so maybe someone here can shed light.

This. Their GDP is roughly equal to that of Italy and about half of that is oil and gas. Their economy is crap aside from natural resources. And Ukraine sits on top of their natural gas pipeline. This is not just a normal economic downturn in a regular economic cycle.
