I just don’t know how much more I can take of this crap. I’m getting silenced more and more. Most of the leftie friends, I’ve stopped talking to. I’ve stopped posting on most social media and now I’m being told to shut up by family. It’s so frustrating. Seriously, I don’t know what would I do without this group. I’m really sad.

My family thinks Im nuts. Ive spent at least 20k on survival gear, MREs, foodstuffs, dry goods and water, ammo, alcohol (cheap vodka for barter). That doesnt include about 15k more on GME and silver.
My barns look like a nuclear survival shelter for dozens if not hundreds. My wife has meticulously listed it all so that we can rotate it thru and nothing gets old.
Same here. Three freezers stocked with game, our own grass fed beef and chicken, fish. We get six dozen eggs a day from our chickens. Once they get too old to lay eggs they end up on our table for a meal. We have a 17 acre lake with plenty of fish.Two industrial grade generators and enough guns and ammo to protect what we have. Gives me peace to know we’re prepared. Husband is mid seventies and retired Army. I’m ten years younger. We’ve kept fit so we can fight if we have to. Our family and friends think we’ve gone off the deep end, but when/if SHTF at least half of them will be dependent on us.
Sounds like a beautiful place.
Thank you. It is. We searched for a place where we could be self sufficient. Our three sons thought we were crazy for selling our smaller home on a local lake to buy a bigger house on top of a mountain. We searched until we found what we felt in our spirit was right for us and our family as well as friends. We farm with another couple raising our own organic beef and pork. We raise our own chickens and let them range free, although due to local hawks and eagles, we have to keep them under a netted area. I grew up on a farm. Didn’t have an indoor bathroom until I was 15 years old. We both know what physical work is and don’t mind it at all. Keeps us fit and busy. Also ensures a great night’s sleep. Our home provides views from every side. We’ve literally shot deer from our porch. I’m 5 ft tall, but knew how to dress out a deer in the field at 15. We also love rabbits and have rabbit boxes all over our property. Our boys, all grown with families of their own are a damn embarrassment to me with the exception of the middle son who is completely with us on this. Their pop was drafted in ‘69 to Vietnam. He’s no pussy and still more man than I can handle at his age of 73. If I didn’t have his skills, not sure of where I would be. He told me years ago about how damn corrupt our government was and when Q started with his first drop he was fully on board. We give the glory to God for our awakening because without Him guiding us, we’re not sure we would be in such a position of confidence and peace. We’re set for life to be honest. We’re self sufficient and we’re ready for whatever comes, even if that means death. We’re ready, but unless God calls us, we’re ready, able and willing to fight to the death and if we lose that fight, we still win. God always wins and we go with God. We have that mantle of protection and nothing else matters. We want to leave a legacy for our grandkids. We want them to be strong and we want them to understand that freedom isn’t free. Someone has/had to fight for that freedom. Their grandfather did. He says knowing what he knows now, he would still fight. We need more Patriots like my husband.
I wish we were neighbors lol, sound like good folk. God bless you all
Good Bless you.
I want this. My husband and I are 50s, and there is not enough lifetime left to gain the knowledge to do all of it. But we will do what we can, when we can.
Thank you for keeping this knowledge alive
We did all this in less than four months. We didn’t have the money to do it sooner. When we put our lake house up for sale our kids thought we had literally gone off the deep end. Luckily, we hadn’t yet changed our wills. If they don’t know now, they’ll remember that we were prepared. We were literally living on a retirement resort area, which we felt wasn’t safe. We also weren’t entirely happy there. We have to work harder now which our kids think is crazy but they will end up making their way to us. We’ve told them that. They laugh….. now. The time will come…..
Wow. Just wow. What books/resources did you use??
You've accumulated a store of goods that has the potential to tide you over in the event of something going wrong, and for the same money as a lot of people spend on a car they don't even like that much and most of which you can still use over time and it probably rises in value due to this fiat nightmare we're in.
I feel so unprepared compared to some of you all since I don't have much storage space. I have great backpacking gear for the outdoors, but it looks like I'll want to have bartering goods just in case? Any suggestions on how to start off small?
Cigarettes
Gold and silver, always a good investment.
First aid supplies.
Have you ever had in your area an earthquake, tornado, hurricane? What supplies were short during those times? What were people running short on? Those might be the things to have a stock of.
Junk silver, mostly dimes, is good for barter. Weed (I dont smoke but bought some seeds as a just in case), cheap vodka, tobacco, vegetable seeds, ammo, fuel (I have a crapton of propane, coleman fuel in gallons, the coleman fuel tanks for lanterns or small camp stoves and parafin fuel for lamps). Anything that may be in short supply if we go MadMax. Make sure you have an axe, hatchet and a good knife, hooks and lures + fishing line, snares, magnesium for fire starting and a thousand feet of paracord.
The ones that called you nuts don’t get any supplies when it all comes crashing down!!! Let them starve.
