    Gold and Silver
    Everyday I am more convinced inflation will be the most destructive force in the New Depression. Both the European Central Bank and the Federal Reserve Bank are prepared to print as much money as necessary to fight deflation. Unfortunately, they don’t seem to realize that deflation is actually good for the [...]

    Bragg Apple Cider Vinegar
    One of the biggest problems with prepping is that it’s expensive. I think that’s why my post, 20 Uses For Baking Soda, was so popular.  Instead of buying soap, dish soap, toothpaste, cleaners, deodorizers, etc., you can just buy a couple big bags of [...]

    Department of Agriculture poster
    Although survivalists are usually  portrayed as paranoid conspiracy theorists by the main stream media, during a crisis they are heroes. Take a look at this poster. The U.S. Department of Agriculture printed and distributed it during the Great Depression. At that time the country was suffering terribly and soup kitchens [...]

    Aurora Colorado Shooting
    The day after the shooting in Aurora, Colorado, my wife and I went to see The Dark Knight Rises. It felt strange to see the same movie at which dozens had been hurt or killed less than 24 hours before, but we had [...]

    Survival Antibiotics
    Survival antibiotics are often overlooked by preppers. One reason is because preppers don’t know which ones to buy or even where to get them. Another reason is because they haven’t needed them before so they forget that they might need them in the future. That was the reason I hadn’t [...]

    Castaway Tooth
    Have you ever had a really bad tooth ache? One so bad you couldn’t concentrate on anything or even sleep at night? I have. And let me tell you, it’s no picnic. Pain killers and Orajel weren’t enough. I was in so much pain that I was calling every dentist [...]

    Mylar Foods
    Last week I was sealing some food in Mylar bags and I was trying to remember if I’d ever made a post on this topic. I searched my own site and was surprised to find I hadn’t. (Although I did share some good videos about it in the posts Keep Reading →

    Bugging Out Traffic
    A lot of hardcore preppers insist that you have a bug out bag and a bug out location. Many of them say that when the SHTF, the cities will burn to the ground. And even if they don't burn, the people living in them will starve to death or be murdered by looters.

    Food Under Stairs
    Before starting your food storage program, you should figure out where you’re going to keep all that food. The conditions need to be right, there needs to be plenty of room, and it needs to be in a convenient place. Look around your home and find a place that you can dedicate to food storage. Be creative.
