My husband and I talk a great deal about survival. The world simply cannot keep going the way it is. With the economy crashing and war everywhere, it scarily seems like it is just a matter of time before everything comes crashing down around us. Are you preparing for possible problems? If so, what have you done to prepare? We have stocked up on beans, rice, and wheat. We have a hand wheat grinder. We have purchased bullet molds so we can hunt for food if we need to. We are stocking up on foods that will last a long time such as canned goods. We already have quite a few books on survival and are adding more; for example, the Foxfire books are good books to have around. Are you worried about the world? Are you planning your survival in case things go really bad?

I guess there aren't many people on here that are preparing and that scares me. This world is to uncertain right now and people are losing their jobs left and right and we have to be ready for anything. I buy extra can goods, tuna and stuff like that I'm getting my freezer full and also buying extra rice, beans, salt and sugar and flour. I'm not going to let my family be unprepared. I keep hearing that this summer we may have tons of rolling black outs because our grids can't handle all the pressure and the summers are getting hotter so that means how many days without electricity?? My family will be prepared and ready to handle anything. Great topic!!
