They wont prep and she wont leave them out...family ties are strong...i've just got to do my best alone , i sort of know i'm prepping for 12 but i do my calculations on how long 3 could go for on what i put away...best and worse case scenarios.

in that case the only thing you can do is increase your preps by a factor of X4!

Is Mrs M on board with your prepping?Just show he the financial cost (financial and logistics) of prepping for an extra 8 people who cannot be bothered to do so for themselvesand see if she still feels so charitable.

The problem is that the extra 8 who are not prepared to prep in any way will decend upon you at t=your wife's initation and will consume whatever you have put away at a rate far greater than you plan, because they will be of the mind set that you are just a stop gap until the government comes to support you all..... so they will consume in the same wasteful way as they (we all) do at the current time.

Sadly TL is right.... look after those who are prepared to look after themselves, the rest can co to hell.

or they could come to the brother in law who has prepped. It's OK if we bring along their entire family as well. Whats that they are Chinese and there are 20 of them.

Shoot the first 3 to step foot on your property and that 12 will soon diminish. You may not get anyone 'wanting in'.
