Both very sobering. Here’s an excerpt:
4. Think things through, budget, and patiently pursue your objectives.
It is impossible to light a fire under some people. Others, however, react rashly when they finally get motivated to prepare for the future. They spend money like drunken sailors, spin in circles, and appear desperate and chaotic.
Don’t fall into this trap. Be deliberate and methodical. Obtain the knowledge you need as inexpensively as possible; from whatever resources you can tap into. The Internet, for example, is full of free ideas, reviews of ideas, and products. Your friends can be fountains of wisdom as well. You must still take risks and make mistakes, but they won’t be wasted, and will hopefully be less costly.
In planning, prepare from your center of greatest strength outwards. Rather than predict the migratory effects of WWIII on the American populace, start, perhaps, with where you are right now. Is your family and home (or apartment) reasonably prepared for a lengthy power outage or basic natural disaster? Do you have enough water and food to make it a few weeks, or will you run to the nearest shelter and yell, “Help!” from your lawn chair to passing camera crews?
Once your home front is solid, slowly work outward to external, potential resources you might be able to access in times of need. Not all emergencies will occur while we are sleeping in our homes. What can you reasonably store in your car for an emergency, for example? Some walking shoes, water, maps, cash, food, wet-weather gear, gloves, tools, lighter, first aid kit, dust mask, etc.? Continue working outward from there to other areas, states, and even countries.
