Too bad I can't really afford the simplest gears and stuff for prepping. Even the daily grind is hard. Hopefully we don't get a shtf situation until I get my finances in order. My only consolation is I already live in a low-income neighborhood so there's really not much to pillage here.
im not a prepper. i just use common sense and run scenario's.
what you will find interesting is those on low income usually live paycheck to pay check. meaning if they miss a payment their life changes drastically. in some places people can be made homeless in under a couple weeks to a couple months.
richmond virginia actually has laws where if someone misses a rent payment by 1 week and has not sorted it by the end of the week. 'taking possession' orders can be filed. and people are out on the streets in a couple weeks.
its stuff like this that makes people end up doing crazy things to survive.
yep be more worried about neighbours losing jobs than a nuclear bomb.
basically try to have enough food you to survive a few months. just incase you lose your job or where new expenses need to be paid, you can easily survive without going to the grocery store for a month or two without it affecting your life
