Welcome to this week’s Survival Buzz with an update on my own preps plus news and announcements from the Backdoor Survival blog.
Lately I have been giving a lot of thought to various “what ifs”. What if there is an earthquake or tsunami? In spite of all of my preps, I may have to evacuate and the best laid plans to hunker down in place will be for naught.
What if there is a global economic collapse? What will happen to my savings that have been so carefully set aside? Will a lifetime of frugality be wasted?
And then there is this: What if nothing happens? What if there is no disruptive event; no urban chaos, and no worries other than those associated with getting through life one day and one moment at a time?
I bring this up today because unless you have been living in a bunker somewhere, the month of September was widely reported to become the month when doomsday occurs. In September 2015, the stuff was going to hit the fan in a major way and life as we know it would change. Well guess what? The world, as uncertain as it has been these last seven or eight years, is still uncertain but no more and no less than the previous month or any other recent month for that matter.
All of this is my opinion, of course, but I sense that there is a universal unrest afoot.
