Seems like all the assholes out there these days saying to go work for yourself have some bullshitass skill that relies on computers. All this "remote work, work from anywhere, digital nomad" shit is dependent upon modern society to keep running. When that fails what do you do?

That's the part of prepping that always makes me laugh. Your beautiful bunker and amazing air scrubbers aren't gonna help of you get no warning. Your firearm collection won't save you from an armed mob who are shooting back. Your stockpile of food is largely only good as long as you have means of cooking and clean water.

Keep some dehydrated food/mres/canned stuff, a few cases of water, a shotgun or two, and pray for the best. Your best preparation isn't Jack in the face of a real crisis.

This guy gets it. Stay light and highly mobile. That's the best you can bet on.

I personally stick to mres for my stash. Yes they only have a 3 year shelf life, but they're self contained, not overly thirst inducing, and when they get to end of life, pretty damn good to eat if you hand pick your menu. Water is the biggest issue. Especially in areas without big bodies of water. In Washington, a pack of bleach tabs and a big Birky were good. But now, I have to keep actual water, which is...less than ideal if I have to evacuate

Yep. If you have a lot invested in your bunker and stockpile but you need to move out, it'll be hard to abandon it.
