Didn’t you leave out the entire 2nd house you will need for all that stuff? And I am not counting goats and chickens.

How about a more reasonable list (from those of us who have actually BEEN in a natural disaster).

Plan on 2 weeks.

1. Water
2. Canned goods
3. Generator (very expensive so weigh your options)+fuel
4. Batteries
5. Flashlights
6. Oil/propane lamps (+fuel)
7. Gasoline for your car

That will get you through it. Of course if you are stranded for 2 weeks from a storm it probably means you have been flooded out and all that stuff will be washed away.

But if you expect to be in the middle somewhere that’ll get you by.

Now I see why you have ‘dumb’ in your screen name. I said use it as a guide and that the list was made for TEOTWAWKI. It just gives people ideas and things that the might not think of. Its just an outline.

You can purchase a 10k generator for under $3k. That is not "very expensive."
