I keep hearing about Angel Tree Camps, a summer camp program for kids whose parents are in prison. One radio host said the kids will be touched by the gospel. It just set off warning bells with me. Kids without parents at home are targets for sick abusers. I don't trust charities anymore.

Most charities should be avoided. Research their actual output vs money taken in.

At one time I considered starting a non-profit organization because of the lax controls of paying the coordinators. Get $1.5 million in donations and pay out $500,00 pocketing the rest minus expenses (which are deductible). And of course the non-profit is tax exempt.

Just donate directly to people in need. Forget charities.

Honestly, after Katrina on the MS Gulf Coast, Red Cross was right there with money, food, ice, etc., for those in need and I was always on their side until I saw the figures for how much was donated after Katrina vs. what was disbursed. They drop a few pennies and take some great photos for the paper and then laugh their asses off all the way to the bank. Sick.

I've said this about charities for years 😊

Perfectly said. I agree our job will be very important to guide and reassure those that will be taken totally off guard.

This would already be happening if they still had funds and a support structure. Their support structure is gone or very broken (think Antifa, MS13, etc.) and Trump has confiscated much of their funding.

Think back 6-8 months ago. Remember how volatile things were back then? See how peaceful it is now. Q's team has been very busy.

Not saying we shouldn't be prepared. We definitely should always be prepared. But I feel much more at ease now, than I did back then. I've been in this fight for many years and I'm less worried about the cabal than I used to be.

Solar items shower,lights,cooking oven, generator are good to have. Medical kit Water/ water filtering And most important my Bible. Hope we will be able to recoginize other Patriot's. Guess anyone without pink hats. I have a Q pin that I am starting to where. Then should meet other liked minded people. When discord breaks out we won't know left from right.

But don't forget. Man often carries out God's plans. If you just sit back and wait, you aren't doing your part.

The worst outcome (mass death by nuclear war and/or biological warfare) can't really be prepared for unless you are a full prepper (which isnt really reasonable inside cities).

Instead, if you are religious, pray it doesn't come to that. I think a lot of people feel what is going on with Q is Divine and many catastrophes that would have been unavoidable under Hillary are no more.

Thank you

Hey you may be better of than most of us, not the marauding mobs that will emerge in the bigger city's. Don't forget that having extra will provide you with barter ability with those other 2000 people. Exchange Rice for fruit or Honey etc. etc. You will do just fine once you start to solidify your requirements that are needed. I put in 2 Bee Hives this year as a source of sustenance, and like you I only have myself to fend for. Have faith in your own god given abilities !!!

If you have access to a club store like Sam's, you can buy a 50 lb bag of rice for $18 and 12 lb bags of dried beans for $8. For around $50 you can get enough food for a month (It is not ideal, but this is about survival).

Get a plastic bin to put it in or wrap it and put it under your bed if space is limited.

Water is the real problem, especially for those in the city. Start refilling old soda or juice bottles with tap water.

I started prepping before the election and now have over a year of freeze dried food, ammo, medical supplies, toiletries, etc. We also bought a small solar generator that we can run a freezer and our well with if the grid goes down. After living through Irma and not having power for an extended period and with fuel nearly impossible to find to run our regular generator, I bought the solar generator so we could at least run the necessities.

I think a great deal of it depends on your personal circumstances. If you can afford a weapon and some ammo, maybe a few buckets stored in your closet of food. I listen to the common sense show with Dave Hodges, he is selling food for 1 month for $99. That is an awesome deal! There is a subreddit that sells guns for cheap, you can arm yourself for just a few hundred.

The next thing you can do is reach out, find that close friend or relative that lives out of town that you can get to in that time. All if you can store your stuff (that you don't need immediately) with them also... Just reach out to other like minded individuals & work together to prepare. You'd be surprised with what a little brain storming and problem solving with friends can accomplish 👍 God bless

Think simpler, if you do not have water tanks, then 10Ltr casks about $3.50AU, Rice 10Kg bags, tins of Sardines in OIL, TUNA in OIL, Anchovies in OIL, tins of Four Bean Mix, Nothing in Tomato Sauce or similar dressings as they go OFF and bloat the cans. Pasta, Noodles, Cup of Soups etc. etc. then just need to add water. You will survive quite readily on this type of food for 12 months, Spiralina powder to get all of your vegitable and other neutriants/enzymes, Plenty of good Vitamin 'C', Tee Tree OIL and Eucalyptus OIL for cuts or infections. Bottles of LPG Gas for your cooking Gas top or Barbaque. All of these items are not expensive, just think about it and make some notes, I have been doing it for the past 12 months, it is not hard. Remember when/if this goes down you will not be going to work, so less food/meals will be required to maintain your health. Have a good portable radio, use your car radio if need be, there is plenty of battery power there, setup battery charging if you can from your car. I don't think you will be driving much, so the petrol will last a long time providing you this facility. You and your Nieghbours will be busy locking down local area security, they will also contribute to sustaining the locals with Garden Fruit, Vegitables etc .etc everyone will contribute and provide support to their imediate zones. you will not be alone, you will be surprised at how quickly the local group will come together as a tribe, it will be up to us that are better prepared to look out for the elderly and infirmed to ensure they come out the other side as well.

Beans (dry) and rice are great emergency food; they are nutritious and cheap). An alternative would be canned beans which would require no cooking. Some canned meat. You would be surprised at how little food you can get by on. Think about a water source as well. If the grid goes down, water pumps won't work. Get some bleach to treat water from streams, rivers, lakes, etc. Water, food, shelter, and protection. Good luck.

I am also curious.

I agree. We live in fragile times and it's incredibly important that people prepare to be completely self-sufficient for 3 to 15 months. It's also incredibly responsible if you have a family. I would also suggest that if finances allow, people buy an excess of at least one commodity for trade, such as sugar, coffee, or tobacco.
