Trying to make some decisions on how to best prep for the times, should things worsen before they improve. I want to get my money out of the bank asap and I'm thinking of using it to buy a plot of land as my long term investment/savings strategy. This would protect my money from both inflation and government overreach, as I believe a few more steps ahead in their plan will be to block us from our banking accounts if we do not comply. We are not there yet but I think it's coming. The land will also be an available resource should I need it in the event of food shortages as I am a master gardener but my current property is tiny.
I'm also calling a ranch today to invest in a quarter cow for my freezer. Between that and the fall garden, finding food won't be an issue for months. Regardless what the near future holds, I have to make sure I can keep my kids fed.
Do you have any prepping plans in action? Any advise?
I was looking at getting one last year but couldn't find the solar panel for it, I need to check again.
I do have a good amount of food storage too, I just prefer not to have to use it if possible, as my diet only consists of fresh whole foods (mainly grassfed meats and fresh green veggies), not grains or legumes, and if I have to switch over to it, my autoimmune will flair up and make survival that much harder. We have rain water collection already set up and I have a berkey, so water is never an issue for us. Do need to get some alcohol though, didn't think of that.
Actually thought of that too so I'll share my plan. Ever heard of monolithic domes? They are near the dallas area. That's my future dream home, but in the meantime they do have small buildings available for storage use or to use as an emergency shelter. They are fireproof, tornado proof, bullet proof, hurricane proof, pretty much the safest structure you can build yourself.
Very good you are doing great ahead of most people. While you have the anonymity online, consider being confidential otherwise as it becomes a temptation for others when stress gets high.
Monolithic Domes are a good option, Earthship homes and similar structures are also good.
Definitely, no one knows our plans outside of our home. Even toying with the idea of getting a camper in case we need to flee.
I discarded that solution because in case of electrical outage you will not be able to get gas so you will be stranded on the freeway a tanks distance from home.
We have gas stored up. We are also very close to where we would flee. I really don't want to buy the camper but its either that or flee in the car with a tent. I honestly just hope it won't come to that. Society better reach it's breaking point before then.
