Whats a prepper?

Many that have realized the mess we are in are asking, what do i do now? While i do not offer financial advice, I can tell you how i would prepare. This is a lifestyle change, and some may not agree with it, but we have to break free from the system that is killing us. All of my advice in regards to being prepared for any crisis is going to be good for you even if no crisis ever comes about(thrown in for any sheep reading).

Your first thought should be about plans, where do you live? city/suburb or country? Are you staying in your small community fighting off the hordes of hungry or are you bugging out? To the woods, that cabin you built, family or friends farms,etc?

Where ever you end up, your going to need to be stocked up on some items. We all need certain things to live, water and food come to mind first of course.

If a crisis happens, how can your family have clean drinking water? How much food do you have put away, and how many ways can you cook it(electric stove may not have power).

How will you defend what you have saved? All these questions need anwsered and you need to prepare now, not tomarrow. Imagine how much better you will feel with a years worth of food and different ways to cook them if you lose your job.

Do you know how to grow your own food and save it for the winter? You need to learn these skills now before your forced too.

There was a write up in the american thinker that should help you understand some of the problems we are facing today.
