You guys call yourselves preppers and survivalists...an yet...you really don't know what it will be like when it happens in the US.......it will be ten time worse than what it is right now in Cuba...one way to learn is to make comments about the film and say as to how you could improve the situation by exchanging ideas.....all that I see here are vampires and sombies...what a shame.

Ponce, I know you understand at a deeper level what it's like to live when SHTF more than most, if not all, of us here. My problem is that I simply don't have the resources to prepare for self-sufficiency if SHTF. I've done the best I can with my limited resources to prepare for my family, and I add a little here and there when I can (see this thread I started (http://gold-silver.us/forum/showthread.php?64445-Prepping-at-the-Dollar-Store)). I wish I had a year's worth of supplies, but I don't.
Regarding your video, I haven't had a chance to watch it yet, but I will try to later today.

Self sufficiency was phased out in the beginnings of the 50s. My grandparents stored tons of stuff but as they got older they changed into the buyers of the time. They teach nothing about it in schools, not even how to write a fucking check in home economics.

Thanks Franks, I whished that I had some encouraging words for you but because I KNOW that is going to be worse than in Cuba all that you can do is all that you can do.........sorry to say that someone who I thought that was my friend told every one in my towns about my preps so that now I have taken extra care in my preps, even if I am killed and they come into my home many of them will become my servants in Valhalla.
Start trainning yourself and your family for what is to come.........one thing that I am doing is not to throw toilet paper in the commode but in a enclouse waste basket next to me, using as little power as I can and most of the power, at this time, is going for two freezers and frig.........electric water tank I turn it on and off as needed, dryer one a week.....no worries about water but I do keep my full at all time.
Thrieft Store, first week of every month thay have a special, eight items of clothing for five dollars.........I was there yesterday sixteen work pants for ten dollar and a manual typewriter for fifteen dollars........now I have to get some ribbons for it and vacuum sealed them.............next months I'll be getting 32 women's dresses for twenty dollars, not cocktail dresses but rugged everyday ones.
Buy today all that you think that you will need tomorrow at whatever the price, because tomorrow you won't be able to buy it, at whatever the price.

That sucks Ponce, this is why I don't talk about what I have as far as preps or gold/silver, I don't announce when I buy either,
We all know anyone who depends on the system will be screwed to a certain extent, just depends on how much you are depending on them.
Everyone doesn't have a water well and a way to produce power and protect what is theirs . :)

By now it would have seemed that the old timers on this forum or others would know to keep their dam mouths shut,
What you have is your bizz, and keep your mouth shut on everything..
People talk, tell one person and from then it will be like a nucular chain reaction.....
Nuff said.

Sorry to hear that friend, but methinks you are are relearning the lesson.
Question, If.............If the commie gov collapsed would you think of going back?
I know the major bad thing would be that most of the people were programed , and they got used to sitting on their asses , but from what I understand almost all not part of the group in power , can do any thing with dam near nothing...
I call that heart.

HI manges
see your meds are still not adjusted..
As I said I have nothing to hide, unlike some cockroaches that I respond to... ;D
You have my phone number call me so we can have fun!!!!!
Why do you hide , afraid of going to jail.
The upset on this forum and what drove some good people off (non bigots) was you. This forum does not comform to what you think it should be so you drag people that disagree or question you through hell and have got away with it.
Tho I hold beliefs that are very similar but maybe not as radical as yours.
But that is not the real reason, anyone that questioner you to the point of fact, you go off on them.. and then go totally nuts and troll better than any troll that I have ever seen on the internet.
Now get pissed and do your sig and drag me through shit again.......I do not care
Hot flash...
you like to bust my nuts because I am the brother of richg...!
I know and call friends on this forum that I have had more contact on gsus that I have never met , than I have ever had with my brother.
Want to see a troll
Look into a mirror.
Other than that have fun being who you are, I feel sorry for you..

One thing I envy about you Ponce is that you made your fortune and you can spend a good amount of your time getting ready for what's to come. After I work 50-60 hours a week, spend time with my kids, do the chores, etc., I don't have time to hit the thrift stores looking for the deals out there. I barely hit the garage/estate sales anymore. One thing I still do though, is treasure hunt with my metal detector with my kids on weekends. That's quality time I can spend with them at the same time.
Ponce
8th May 2013, 07:30 PM
LOL Franks, I used to do metal detecting at the monkey bars at Venice Beach, you had the rick old men that think that they are Tarzan and wanted to show off for the family and many goodies would drop from thir pockets....by the way, my "fortune" is not what I have but rather how I handle the little that I do have..........I only live from my SS and is more than what I really need and that't why I am not worried about my silver and gold because I really woi;d not know what to do about it when prices go up......in my old age maybe a couple of good looking nurses to take care of my needs, in another 20 or 25 years, maybe ahahahahahahahahah.
WTSHTF will see what happens and that is that......soooooo.. .........why worry?
