Fear Porn or Not, Better to be Ready
As with Guns: Better to have them and not need them than need them and not have them
What if the economic collapse happened TODAY and all your banking currency, cryptocash, and even paper money suddenly became worthless (it’s happened plenty of times to many countries around the world, just probably not to you or people you know personally. But it happened in several east block countries. it happened in Argentina. it happened in various African countries. And it absolutely can happen to you tomorrow.
I don’t mean to scare you. I am just posing hypothetical here that in nay case I have written about quite extensively and been trying to prepare my family for myself for nearly 4 years now (and am still far from where I want to be but ahead of where most people are).
I have 5 children and a 6th one on the way and am not producing anywhere near what I need to to feed everyone currently. Even so, if all what passes for money in the bank disappeared tomorrow, I still think I’d be ahead of most people, and certainly way ahead of anyone living in cities. It’s winter now, so we’d be limited to maybe some mushrooms, snails and if things got really bad maybe a few birds and so on one would have to hunt illegally. But in spring there would be fruits you could store, a bunch of olives and we have enough olive oil to trade it for other stuff for a while. Ideal? Not at all, but where would you be?
I am not the only one keeping tabs on worst case scenarios, and in fact I did these calculations and a LOT more analysis on it that makes sense, long before most people were even aware of it.
So you can educate yourself on the theory, but for now, deal with the hypothetical, gentle reader. How would YOU and your immediate family fare?
This is what my OG blog is now basically focusing on, trying to help you figure out ways to create realities where you would do well. There are any number of reasons for this, but a main one is that the economic crash is an absolute mathematical certainty. It’s not and never has been an IF. It’s only a WHEN. I predicted the 2008 crash in 1193 to 1995 and assumed it would happen by the year 2000. I was wrong because I had not factored in the stupidity of humans and their greed and idiocy in the continued buying into a Ponzi scheme even when they know it is one. After 2008, I assume the next one would come harder by 2014 but factoring in the human idiocy say 2020. I was partially right. They created COVID and printed billions of made up money to cover that one up, and we are now in 2025 and they will no doubt push “Avian Flu”, Russian or Chinese or Turkish false flags, or new wars in the Middle East pushed by Israel, and God alone knows what else. Including the fake Alien Invasion that Werner von Braun told us about in the mid 1970s was on the cards. It’s now 2025 and a Trump that is shorter than the other one from 2016 is talking about taking over Canada, Greenland, and whatever else. The psychotic inbred assholes that want to kill you are clearly rushing things and thus exposing themselves for what they are even to brain damaged NPCs now, so in the chaos you need to take advantage and secure as much land, and people with a functioning brain and a will to withstand, survive and thrive as best you can.
I created a Role-Playing Game so that people can literally play out possible scenarios. If you think this is a silly idea, you should ask yourself why every military on the planet plays out scenarios first before going to war.
So… whether the sun will shine, all the pedovore predators will suddenly convert to pious lambs, and riches without usury will flow to you and your children like a miracle, or whether you will need to sharpen the steel reinforcing from the bombed out cities to create javelins to hunt the mutant rats after the apocalypse, you really should try to ready yourself. And as always the order of business is:
Rural
Community
Self-sufficiency
Defence
