What are you Prepping for?

It seems like it recent headlines have ripped right out of the Prepper’s Handbook. Economic collapse and civil unrest in Venezuela and Argentina, a highly suspicious jet airliner crash, and lets not forget Russia seizing Ukraine. Can a plague of locust be that far away? So in the spirit of wacky news I figured I would run a not so scientific but interesting poll, what are you prepping for?

    All of the above, except the first and the last. Some short term (the air/water/food is already poison). Pandemic will get increasingly worse and peak end of 2017-2018. Natural disasters will increasing worse as the pole shifts and the ice caps melt.

    I of course prep for all of the natural disaster type situations, but I especially do for a personal job loss situation. To know that I can feed my family even if we have zero money for anything else is a good feeling ๐Ÿ™‚

    1) Bug out for 3 months.
    2) Not where I live (Strategic Relocation).
    3) Bug out for 1 year.
    4) Not where I live.
    5) You really can not prep for that. Flash! 3 seconds. Boom! What are you going to do in 3 seconds besides kiss yo a$$ goodbye?
    6) You forgot Electrical Grid Failure Bro!!!! Bug out 1 year, then garden on vacant land.
