[讨论] 如何准备大萧条？

not4weak

Let’s face it.  We may say we’re preparing for winter blizzards or freak hurricanes, but down deep, if you’re a prepper, what you’re really preparing for is a collapse of America’s economy.  It may happen within a few days or it may be a continual downward slide over many years.  Its causes may include numerous Katrina-size natural disasters, a toppling federal government, chaos on Main Street, and the odd meteor or two, but regardless of the causes, we want our families to be as secure as possible for the long haul.

So, the question that naturally arises is: How do you prepare for a Greatest Depression?  Is it even possible to prepare for something that may last a decade or much, much longer?  Is it better to be a homeowner, even if someday you’re unable to make your mortgage payments or is it better to have mobility and rent?  Should you leave your life savings and retirement funds where they are or take the tax and penalty hit and invest in land, or gold, or a year’s worth of food?

If we could talk with survivors of the first Great Depression and ask them, “If you could go back to 1925, how would you have prepared for the Great Depression,” I wonder what they would say.  We’re preparing for something on a world-wide scale, so my question to you is, how should we prepare for a Greatest Depression?

你有没有担心大萧条？

有备无患一说。

木有，我一向认为，只要青山在，就木有可怕的。关键是开心，健康。身外的木有可担心的。

1Buy a Gun



If things get so bad that people begin to steal off each other, this will come in very handy.  You can use it to protect your family and belongings, as well as to kill animals for food.  And if you really are in dire straits, you can use it to rob someone else! (Okay – I didn’t mean that – we should all try to help each other out – not kill each other).  A gun will be most useful in hunting so be sure to buy one that is practical for shooting birds and larger animals.  You will also want to buy a book on how to skin, clean, and prepare wild animals for human consumption.

2Relocate or buy an RV



If you think you are in a job that is likely to not be needed during a depression, you should consider relocating to an area that has a lot of wildlife and land.  If you lose your house, an investment in an RV now (not on credit!) could be your life-saver.  You can drive it to a new town, find a private area where you won’t be disturbed, and park up while the depression rides out.  Make sure you find an area where you can rely on plentiful fresh water and animals – which brings us to item one…
这个我不知道好不好，到时候在路上开，会被人给劫持了，另外没有钱买油也不好。

开心过好现在的每一天。多开心一天算一天。

练习禁食祷告，到时候要是真没东西吃时，还能多挨一阵子饿！
