How to Survive Total Economic Collapse

[Mr Deathcare]

Is total economic collapse just around the corner? As the U.S. dollar weakens and the price of goods such as oil, grain and gold rise, many fear for the economic stability of the country. So how does one survive total economic collapse? The U.S. dollar is weak and it may be too late to save the finances of this debt-driven economy. However, it's not too late to learn some basic survivalist skills. Following are some tips.

 

Here's how to survive a total economic collapse.

1. Educate yourself before hand if possible. Read everything you can on how to survive a total economic collapse, from survival guides and "How to" books.

 

2. Storing food and resources are higher priority than paying down debt for families of modest means.

 

3. Purchase goods and valuables such as weapons for hunting and personal protection, and basic food supplies such as whole grains, which are easy to store.

 

4. Invest in water purification bottles and tablets, and keep some bottled water on hand to meet immediate needs in the event of a shortage. All of these will make it more possible to survive a total economic collapse.

 

5. Prepare a First Aid Kit, sewing kit and other practical necessities of daily life to aid in survival of a total economic collapse. These are good things to have on hand anyway, for regular daily life as well as unforeseen emergencies.

 

6. Get to know your neighbors and build a community wherever you are. In the event of total economic collapse, life will become very local and survival will depend on working together with others, beginning with families.

 

7. Grow some of your own food and raise animals for meat. Chickens and rabbits are small and easy to tend. Chickens provide eggs as well as meat and are excellent sources of protein and fat, both critical for survival. In economic downturns such as a recession or depression, being able to produce food is a important skill to have.

 

8. Create an exist strategy, if you live in a city it is wise to have a plan on where to go should you be forced to leave your home.

 

9. See our Emergency kit list on the discussions section of this group and start collecting the items suggested for survival.

 

10. Keep your eyes and ears open to the news as things are starting to spiral and you need to be aware of how things can effect you.

 

11. Prepare, prepare and prepare!
