God bless you! I hope you or someone can continue this vital ministry. We are in the times when multitudes, including FReepers, will wish they had paid more attention and prepared.
I have been a prepper for forty years; my preps are finished and I leave them to my family and friends. Health and issues of persevering are where my efforts are now.
I want to say that it is nearly impossible to prepare for every crisis. Our superiors are skilled at catching us off guard and unawares. Some very basic ideas are essential to draw attention. Precious metals and historical items of value need to be considered; however, those commodities can be undermined or outlawed - plus achieving fair trade may be challenging. For those of modest means I would emphasize silver and especially 'junk silver' such as silver American coins; at least they are still legal American currency.
Next I would consider tools, tools of all kinds but most likely to be in demand. In these situations tools have always emerged as a highly sought after necessity.
Bringing up tools leads to barter. When 'legal' currency becomes just paper, items most folks will need become a 'new' currency. This category might include toothpaste or corn muffin mix up to matches, clothing, soap - surely toilet paper (the first item historically to run out of supply - COVID!)
Shelter and water are vital considerations. Both are essential to survival. That brings up 'networking', organizing a tight group of local dependable folks with a multitude of skills and resources, who can face tribulations together and endure.
This is a woefully inadequate listing but a good skeleton on which to build a 'body' - hopefully a surviving living body. 👴
TY Bob. I hope someone takes the thread over and makes it successful
