So in an effort to get people talking and debating with each other rather than arguing as we have been doing I want to raise the subject of
“How Far Do You Want To Develop Your Preps?â€Â
Fortunately this topic is one with no wrong answers as everyone’s idea of preps is different and equally valid.
Can we discuss your long term objectives in relation to your preps, I would like to hear opinions from people about stuff as diverse as;
(Chaps, Chappeses and SD if there is any question you feel intrusive or an opsec issue please just ignore it, I’m just trying to push debate forward not intrude)
How much money you spend each year on prepping as a percentage of income or amount and do you consider it realistic.
How far you intend to go to be self- reliant and off grid
Do you want to live off grid full time permanently if you possibly can
Do you / are you developing substantial veg plots and life stock preps
How many PV panels do you own and how many to you actually want
Are you planning on laying a 12VDC circuit in your home
Do you have an auxiliary water storage treatment plan in place and how much water can it contain
How much time do you consider as being realistic each week for your preps
Are you planning for a whole family group or just yourself.
Are you adapting your normal lifestyle to integrate your preps or are they kept separate (are you trying to live the preppers lifestyle now)
Do you have auxiliary heating systems like wood stoves separate from grid supplied gas and electric if so may I enquire without damaging your opsec approximately how much wood / coal/ oil/ gas have you set aside ( probably easy for some to say “ I have XXX months supply of firewood)
Do you have a food stockpile or cache
Have you got or plan on getting a micro wind turbine (sub 1500 doofahs) if so is it erected and in use or cached for after TSHTF
Have you / are you planning on moving to a more sustainable location in the near future
And heres one that does not actually raise its head here very often
What event or incident are you prepping to survive??
Respects NR (now sitting under his desk waiting for the issue to get derailed or side tracked)
