Common Sense #Prepping. 🪓

1. Learn to stock, eat out of, rotate, and maintain a deep pantry and space freezer. Stock high end camping rations in storage for stretching supply in emergencies.

2. Keep 30 days of fresh water and a water filtration kit for fetching and filtering water from nearby. Source locations in good times.

3. Keep a steel rocket stove, hatchet, and some kit to fetch wood from nearby. Ensure hardy cookware to use on top. Keep kindling on hand.

4. Obtain and use a large lithium battery bank with solar panels for camping but also in an emergency. Learn to run your space freezer and fridge off of it. Get bad and disting fan to keep things cool. Get a lithium motor bike that can be loaded in a truck.

5. Do an area study of your location. Print a map and mark key areas. Determine a bail out location that you can use periodically. A campsite is a great idea, or a cabin. Vacation there. Plan routes. Get your bail out bags setup in the garage.

6. Practice firearm proficiency. EDC a carry gun. Go to the range. Build a battle belt. Learn to clean, maintain, etc. Involve the family.

7. Build med kits at home. Treat your own cuts. Animal bites. Stock meds for infections (ivermectin, fenben, doxycycline, itraconazole, CDS, methylene blue). Become like a little family practice and improve over the years.

8. Avoid the prepping scene. It's an entire industry designed to scare you and waste your time and money. Think wholesome capable boy scout culture, not freaked out conservative gun guy.

These are all common sense, highly useful things that can be leveraged in good times and bad developed in waves over years.

#RulesForReset

I'd say buy some cheap radios so you have alternative way to communicate in times of power outages (batteries in cell towers die - look in the recent spanish/portugeese outage)

Also make things simple - I have a small foldable solar setup that outputs 100w and it has an usb plug so I can very easily charge phones,powerbanks,radios, flashlights etc which gives you easy options during even simple outages.

Totally underrated thing is also refueling your gas tank discipline - I never go below half a tank which ensures I can always run it for hours to charge devices or drive for several hours without needing to refuel.
