    Being locked and loaded is the best preparation.

      Let’s just say I’ve been investing in brass. I should be gtg for an extended length of time.

        I've been looking for more food storage, another big freezer or possibly getting into freeze drying. Also a generator to run things, I have small solar panels that would work for small lights/electronics. I have some water filtration/purifying, but more is better. My medical supplies could also use some expanding.

          Medical supplies especially antibiotics and antivirals are good to have.

              I won’t get into much detail but I’m prepared lol. But honestly my best plans/investments are owning in the Mexican Caribbean and having dual residency. All I have to do is make it to the border and I can leave this disaster of a country in the rear view in a matter of hours.

                I'd like to say I was better prepared, but unfortunately, I'm not. Pretty sure I know what's coming too.

                I'm just gambling at that I'll be dead before it arrives

                No shit.

                      Same.

                      I know what useless pos I am when the power goes out. Take away my HVAC, and it's damn the torpedoes for me.
