Where to Start Preparing






 Where to Start Preparing


People who are joining the movement to ensure their own and their families survival during and after the next Economic collapse, are called Preppers.  Preparing for survival is no joking matter.  As many believe that our financial market, banks and monetary system will collapse before 2016.  That is only three years away.  Depending on who you are discussing the issue with, there are various ideals as to the causation.  And with the multiple of causation, there are just as many differed opinions of what to expect.  Let them fight it out on the street corner over the last loaf of bread.  Because by being prepared, you will have a head start out of town.


Economic Collapse, many believe is baring down on us all.  After all, if a business can not be run with more going out than coming in, how does a country expect to operate with more going out debt wise, than revenue being created?

Banks will close, leaving many with out funds.  Wide spread panic will ensue as  credit cards, bank cards or electronic checks will cease to work.  Utilities will stop working and transportation will come to a halt.  And shelves in grocery stores will be bare.  Meaning delivery of fuels, medical supplies and food supplies may stop.

The Preppers Rule of Three:
     The typical person can survive:
                  Three minutes with out oxygen
                  Three hours exposed to the elements
                  Three days with out water
                  Three weeks with out food
 

Where to begin can be overwhelming.  So, here is the "Bug Out Bag Essentials", and that seems as good a place as any.  To keep tucked away among your survival gear.  Not just in case of the Economic Crisis, but we all saw the results of Hurricane Katerina and Hurricane Sandy.  Our government is not prepared to react on a moments notice. 

Bug Out Bags are created from back packs, and carry the most basic of essentials. Meant only to get you from where ever you are, to your Bug Out Spot; or made to carry out if you live in and have to leave your Bug Out Spot with out notice.
