“Advice on the looming crash, No.1: get hard cash in a safe place now; don't assume banks & cashpoints will be open, or bank cards will work,” he tweeted.

“Crash advice No.2: do you have enough bottled water, tinned goods & other essentials at home to live a month indoors? If not, get shopping.

“Crash advice No.3: agree a rally point with your loved ones in case transport and communication gets cut off; somewhere you can all head to.”

looks like there are preppers across the pond as well.

Preppers’ PING!!

Hat tip to Larry - Moe and Curly for the heads up.

Prepping continues. The past few days should show nay-sayers that the global economy is ready to go belly up at a very short notice.

There’s preppers and there’s nut cases. I vote for the later here.

If the DOW goes to 500, I don’t see food shortages as a result. Dodging falling brokers and bankers, yes, but not food shortages.

And why in the world would I want to stay indoors for a month?

>>>>>fuel prices skyrocket in the wake of a market crash<<<<

Just lost me. The tanking of the oil markets and the air going out on that bubble over the last year have KILLED energy stocks and anything related to the oil industry. There is a glut of oil on the world markets and in inventory right now.

Speaking frankly, it would do a lot of companies around the world a lot of good if oil prices went back up to $50/bbl. tomorrow.

Still, hard to go wrong with a month’s worth of supplies on hand.
