RE: Scythe13's Prioritised Prepping
Very True & a useful article. Some people seem to do it in the reverse order.
I suppose that someone who just gets in a tonne of tins in case food supply is interrupted etc, is also prepping, but they are prepping for the short term only. They may not realise this and by reading the forums and following the myriad of well meaning "how to's" out there, it may well seem that some of the common systems are the way to go. ie. a preset system like a supply of storable food will be seen on the forums to be highly recommended and therefore may seem to a new prepper to be a major priority above things like knowing how to light fires or obtain drinking water.
Maybe an itemised/prioritised list could be put on the site for new preppers to enable them to weigh up what their best most efficient course of prep action would be for them. It would be a core reference as such that priority of prep actions could be judged against.
As a new prepper, many may not have the wider view of knowledge that would enable them to make the best prioritising decisions on their own and so a little guidance & help may be beneficial.
We could of course just leave it to people to figre it all out themselves.. TL.
