I merely pointed out that people can’t prep for a disaster as they would for the mythical WTSHTF.

I've lived with this all of my life and I don't know what you mean, both are part of the same, the differences would not be noticeable until getting into the serious survivalist lifestyle.

Emergency Prep: Water, matches, tools, how-to books, camping gear, canned goods, flashlights, weapons and ammo, common sense.

WTSHTF Prep: See the 100+ items in the early part of this thread, including the renowned chickens and goats, not counting bunkers.

It is all about ROI. People with lesser means have to ask the question: “buy a car or prep for an almost 0% TSHTF scenario?”

Emergency Prep costs a few bucks but is not taxing if done over time and certainly not a WOL (Way of Life).

When Prep consumes more than 5% of your life then it goes from smart planning to just plain nutso.

Unless you live in the outback anyway and that is just how you live. But urban and suburban chicken and goat farms are not really tolerated.
