I have been doing this for a while.
Yu never get completely "sorted out" due to new technology, new skills that need new gear, additions to the family or group, supplies going out of date. That last one does not get enough attention in the total scope of things. No, not that rotating stock is important, but that it is needed at all.
I can point to exactly the time when I decided I was no longer a doomsday prepper.
It was the day I realized that my first run of 30 year shelf life foods were about to go out of date!
That was 15years ago, and the world is still moving right along with exactly the same problems predictions and woes it had when I bought that first cache of one year food supplies, thinking I would need them at any time and surly things could not keep going as they were! Society was falling apart, Russia had my town in its bombsight and the economy was on the verge of tanking. Finally the Beatles broke up and I knew the world was on the edge of destruction!
I just took a second cycle of food, one year supply for myself, to my daughter's home for rapid consumption by her horde of munchkins due to the "use by" dates closing in.
