I hope I never have an auto accident or fire but, I carry insurance if anything happens and gives me peace of mind.
My insurance premiums are little higher than others but I like knowing replacement value means I can just go and get the stuff I lost or something similar.
I’m not really emotionally attached to anything except the information on my computer and that is backed up off site in a couple of places.
I’d be inconvenienced but not out and the same with my preps.
If SHTF, for the most part I’m going to barely inconvenienced.
If it means camping out then I’m going to pretty happy as I like being outdoors in any weather.
If it means doing without KFC or Panda Express I won’t starve.
If I need med supplies I’m covered for the most part.
If I need water I can get it just about anywhere.
I think I’ll go to sleep knowing everything will fine no matter what.
I have peace of mind.
My Siblings think I have more loose screws than a cathouse of robot hookers, but who cares.
At the 4th of July family gathering more than one stated they would just "Show up" at my farm.
I let them know how that would work out for them. My sister got me aside and asked some questions later.
She is starting to see the need now.
