This is something that many don’t think about, make a plan before it happens!
Shtf can be any kind of scenario, economic collapse, food crisis, martial law, zombie apocalypse, doomsday.. it dosen’t matter, if shtf you will need to have a plan. Who will do what? When will they do it? How will they do it?
If you are prepared but don’t have a plan, then you won’t do aswell as you thought you would. This is crucial for your survival in a shtf situation.
I’ve been getting this question alot lately, “Where is the safest place to go when shtf?”
And I’ve been thinking about it, and the safest place I can come up with, is an island. Now, it’s not that easy to find an island to live at and it’s not a life for everybody. But, it is the safest place. If you find an island where you and your family can either live alone or where there are hardly any people, you will be very safe and you can definately survive for a very long time if you go about it the right way.
When you are preparing for a disaster, the most people buy food, store water and other necessary things to survive. But they usually don’t think in the long run. I myself wouldn’t want to simply survive if I knew in before hand that a disaster was comming, I would want to live properly and actually enjoy it. So I am preparing with movies, books, guitar strings and many more things so that I can enjoy myself when shtf. Think about it. How fun will it be sitting by your door with a gun/rifle all day and not doing anything and just surviving?
I have been spending some time reading this ebook that is supposed to explain many different things on how to survive the Martial Law that many today fear will happen in the US. My first thought about the book was that it wouldn’t do much to read it and it would be a waste of money, but my friend told me that it was great and that it had helped him alot in many different aspects, so I decided to read it..
Turns out, there are alot of things that I will be buying that I didn’t think of.. This book explains so many things that I jsut won’t be able to list it all here. It explains how to get away from a violent crowd, to jump walls, Bug Out Bag equipment that I haven’t even thought of, the best things to wear at all times to make sure you will be safe if all hell brakes loose and also how to protect yourself. And with this I didn’t even do the book justice. It’s a must read book for all preppers!
When you order this book you will not have to wait for it to be shipped to your house, you will get to download it to your computer.
The book is called Social Chaos: Escape & Evasion.

As mentioned above, I recommend this book to everyone who wants knowledge when it comes to this subject!
I’ve been thinking.. Isn’t it a good way to survive the comming economic collapse by keeping on moving?
Get an RV and an electric car, some solar panels and whatever else you need and just keep driving around. You can stop for a couple of days at different places and then you move along.
Sounds a bit out of the ordinary to me but still feels like an idea that could work if you just work it right..
Everyone should watch this one!
When people are thinking about bugging out in a worst case scenario they usually think about taking a tent and some equipment and sleep in the forest.
But if you are one of those that want to do it in a better way and for a longer time then I recommend that you watch the documentary of Dick Proennenke. He lived in the woods of alaska for 30 years in a cabin he built himself!

This is an article written by Ray Elliott on february 2nd, 2010.
The event that many would like advance warning on is economic collapse. It is an event that most informed economists say is inevitable due to U.S. deficits that are too large to be paid back. Yet, those of us that must work and pay our bills cannot stop what we are doing and dig a hole to hide in every time a new event happens that appears to be the beginning of the Economic Collapse.
We must first make assumptions on what Economic Collapse is. History tells us. All paper money falls into one of two catagories, those that have failed and those that are going to fail. They failed in the past (including United States currency) in a spiral of constantly losing value. The federal government continually increases the obligations that it must pay for. Buyers of federal debt slowly back away from buying long term debt and later will not purchase even short term debt. The government begins buying its own debt by issuing new paper money. As more paper money is issued it loses more and more of its value. When the public becomes aware that the issuance of paper money is out of control, and that holding it weeks or days will result in a loss of value, they attempt to convert the paper money that they have into assets that retains some value. To do this, they have to remove any cash they have from banks and other institutions and convert it to something else. What ensues is a run on the banks.
When will this happen? We have some clues because of the process that will take place prior to the event. To understand this process, we must look at a recent event that changed the politics of the United States. Scott Brown, a Republican was elected to the Massachusetts senate seat formerly held by Ted Kennedy. Just thirty days prior to this, he was thirty points behind in the polls. The mainstream media (MSM) have more influence on the general public than any other source. Generally the MSM support the liberal and socialistic candidates and ideas. So why was Senator Brown elected thirty days after he was 30 points behind?
The last thirty days created a change in the MSM reporting. Brown ran against Obama’s unpopular policies. MSM broadcast and print articles began appearing that supported Brown. Incidents showing his opponent (Coakley) in an unfavorable light began appearing. The MSM and the liberal majority changed their minds in the last few weeks and Brown was elected. Loss of confidence in the paper dollar will occur in a similar fashion. However; it can occur at a much faster pace such as days and weeks instead of months.
The MSM generally is in favor of big government spending and supports the socialistic policies of the Obama administration. The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people’s money (Margaret Thatcher). At the point that MSM begins to see the hazards of the uncontrolled printing of money, the beginning of the end is near. Then the MSM will begin to report the REAL MONEY CRISIS. For those that ask, “When will the SHTF?” That is when.
The events that follow this are events that you will not want to be a part of. Long lines will appear at banks for those trying to get their money out while it still has some value. Paper money will be issued in greater and greater denominations. Food and other necessities of life will skyrocket in price. Soon a bank holiday will be declared while the government attempts to control the panic. Rules will be enforced that restrict how much money may be withdrawn at a time. Attempts will be made to “freeze” food prices. Payment for all good and services will be turned upside down. Everything will rapidly increase in price. Soon, the paper money you have will not buy the things that you need. At some point, $1,000 will not buy a pair of shoes.
The events that follow this are also predictable because they have happened before. Gold and silver become extremely valuable. Pre 1965 silver coins (they still have some silver in them) will become a known standard of value that is accepted by those that still have something to sell. The barter system for goods and services will return. People that want to eat will grow gardens. Most people who have had life savings in 401Ks will be poor again. The winners are the ones that have planned in advance and the ones that still have outstanding loans or mortgages. The mortgages will no longer have any value. Homeowners will be able to send a million dollar note to a mortgage holder and tell them to keep the change. The change will not buy a loaf of bread. Large cities will become dangerous places to be.
Those that plan ahead can avoid the most severe aspects of this scenario. It is up to each individual to plan ahead early enough to survive. A following article will outline some suggested courses of actions that any individual can implement.
Food and water are the most important things you need to have for a survival situation. But about every prepper I have seen writing or talking about prepping, mostly talks about buying canned food and how to store food. You should definately do that, but in the long term, producing is the best way to go. If you have a garden, make sure you can grow vegetables there! Raise chickens, rabbits and if you can, then also raise goats. These are the easiest animals to take care of and they require very little room.
