You’ll likely outlive most the horde, but you won’t likely survive. Too much reliance on an unknown you may not even make it to, or be challenged getting there or there. Then you won’t have supplies or a self reliant food system to sustain you. Some teenager with a .22 squirrel gun will pick you off as you scrounge for food knowing if he didn’t you’ll eventually end up a threat to the, because you aren’t prepared.
Get out now, get set up. Load a basement with food and supplies. Find good neighbors that will work with you to defend your neighborhood. Get animals that eat grass (not bagged food). Have a water source that requires no electricity.
When I was in the service as soon as I experienced real violence I understood that soldiers were being used for something very wrong. I realized that there was almost no justification for what I was seeing and doing. The way I mentally coped with what I was feeling was by thinking of war as nothing more than a deadly game. I thought my chances of survival weren't great but I would play the game to the best of my ability and see what happens. I suspect if SHTF I would simply play the game again and see how long I could survive.
I was good at the game too, but there is danger in thinking of it only as a game, no second chance. I want the odds stacked soo far in my favor it’s not even funny.
A sad reality for me is that I will not be able to get to any of the people I love as they are all across the country.
