Surviving the Economic Collapse

Economic experts keep telling us, its not if the collapse will happen, its when.  The collapse is happening right before us.  We see it all around us from the moving of major industry overseas, to job loss, inflation and the skyrocket cost of energy and health care.

I ran across an interesting article that I thought was timely and useful.  Please feel free to leave a comment!

25 Things That You Should Do To Get Prepared For The Coming Economic Collapse

#1 An Emergency Fund

Do you remember what happened when the financial system almost collapsed back in 2008?  Millions of Americans suddenly lost their jobs, and because many of them were living paycheck to paycheck, many of them also got behind on their mortgages and lost their homes.  You don’t want to lose everything that you have worked for during this next major economic downturn.  It is imperative that you have an emergency fund.  It should be enough to cover all of your expenses for at least six months, but I would encourage you to have an emergency fund that is even larger than that.

#2 Don’t Put All Of Your Eggs Into One Basket
If the wealth confiscation in Cyprus has taught us anything, it is that we should not put all of our eggs in one basket.  If all of your money is in one single bank account, it would be easy to wipe out.  But if you have your money scattered around a number of different places it will give you a little bit more security.

#3 Keep Some Cash At Home
This goes along with the previous point.  While it is not wise to keep all of your money at home, you do want to keep some cash on hand.  If there is an extended bank holiday or if a giant burst from the sun causes the ATM machines to go down, you want to be able to have enough cash to buy the things that your family needs.  Just ask the people of Cyprus how crippling a bank holiday can be.  One way to keep your cash secure at home is by storing it in a concealed safe.

#4 Get Out Of Debt
A lot of people seem to assume that an economic collapse would wipe out all debts, but that will probably not be the case.  In fact, if you are in a tremendous amount of debt you will be very vulnerable if the economy collapses and you are not able to find a job.  Just ask the people who were overextended and lost their jobs during the last recession.  So please get out of debt.  Many debt collectors are becoming increasingly ruthless.  In many areas of the country they are now routinely putting debtors into prison.  You do not want to be a slave to debt when the next wave of the economic collapse strikes.

#5 Gold And Silver
In the long-term, the U.S. dollar is going to lose a tremendous amount of value and inflation is going to absolutely skyrocket.  That is one reason why so many people are investing very heavily in gold, silver and other precious metals.  All over the globe, the central banks of the world are recklessly printing money.  Everyone knows that this is going to end very badly.  In fact, there is already a push in more than a dozen U.S. states to allow gold and silver coins to be used as legal tender.  Someday you will be glad that you invested in gold and silver now while their prices were still low.

#6 Reduce Your Expenses
A lot of people claim that they can’t put any money toward prepping, but the truth is that we all have room to reduce our expenses.  We all spend money on things that we do not really need.  Those that are “lean and mean” will tend to do much better during the times that are coming.

#7 Start A Side Business
If you do not have much money, a great way to increase your income is by starting a side business.  And it does not take a lot of money – there are many side businesses that you can start for next to nothing.  And starting a side business will allow you to become less dependent on your job.  In this economic environment, a job could disappear at literally any time.

#8 Move Away From The Big Cities If Possible
For many people, this is simply not possible.  Many Americans are still completely and totally dependent on their jobs.  But if you are able, now is a good time to move away from the big cities.  When the next major economic downturn strikes, there will be rioting and a dramatic rise in crime in the major cities.  If you are able to move to a more rural area you will probably be in much better shape.

#9 Store Food
Global food reserves have reached their lowest level in nearly 40 years.  As the economy gets even worse and global weather patterns become even more unstable, the price of food will go much higher and global food supplies will become much tighter.  In the long run, you will be glad for the money that you put into long-term food storage now.

#10 Learn To Grow Your Own Food
This is a skill that most Americans possessed in the past, but that most Americans today have forgotten.  Growing your own food is a way to become more independent of the system, and it is a way to get prepared for what is ahead.

#11 Nobody Can Survive Without Water
Without water, you would not even make it a few days in an emergency situation.  It is imperative that you have a plan to provide clean drinking water for your family when disaster strikes.

#12 Have A Plan For When The Grid Goes Down
What would you do if the grid went down and you suddenly did not have power for an extended period of time?  Anyone that has spent more than a few hours without power knows how frustrating this can be.  You need to have a plan for how you are going to provide power to your home that is independent of the power company.

#13 Have Blankets And Warm Clothing On Hand
This is more for emergency situations or for a complete meltdown of society.  During any major crisis, blankets and warm clothing are in great demand.  They also could potentially make great barter items.

#14 Store Personal Hygiene Supplies
A lot of preppers store up huge amounts of food, but they forget all about personal hygiene supplies.  During a long crisis, these are items that you would greatly miss if you do not have them stored up.  These types of supplies would also be great for barter.

#15 Store Medicine And Medical Supplies
You will also want to store up medical supplies and any medicine that you may need.  In an emergency situation, you definitely would not want to be without bandages and a first-aid kit.  Over the course of a long crisis, you do not want to run out of any medicines that are critical for your health.

#16 Stock Up On Vitamins
A lot of preppers do not think about this either, but it is very important.  These days, it is becoming increasingly difficult to get adequate nutrition from the foods that we eat.  That is why it is very important to have an adequate store of vitamins and other supplements.

#17 Make A List Of Other Supplies That You Will Need
During any crisis, there will be a lot of other things that you will need in addition to food and water.  The following are just a few basic things that it would be wise to have on hand…
- an axe
- a can opener
- flashlights
- battery-powered radio
- extra batteries
- lighters or matches
- fire extinguisher
- sewing kit
- tools
This list could be much, much longer, but hopefully this will get you started.

#18 Don’t Forget The Special Needs Of Your Babies And Your Pets
Young children and pets have special needs.  As you store supplies, don’t forget about the things that they will need as well.

#19 Entertainment
This may sound trivial, but the truth is that our entertainment-addicted society would become very bored and very frustrated if the grid suddenly went down for an extended period of time.  Card games and other basic forms of entertainment can make enduring a crisis much easier.

#20 Self-Defense
In the years ahead, being able to defend your home and your family is going to become increasingly important.  When the economy crashes, people are going to start to become very desperate.  And desperate people do desperate things.

#21 Get Your Ammunition While You Still Can
Your firearms will not do you much good if you do not have ammunition for them.  Already there are widespread reports of huge ammunition shortages.  The following is from a recent CNS News article
“The run on ammunition has manufacturers scrambling to accommodate demand and reassure customers, as many new and seasoned gun owners stock up over fears of new firearms regulations at both the state and federal levels.”
Don’t just assume that you will always be able to purchase large amounts of ammunition whenever you want.  Get it now while you still can.

#22 If You Have To Go…
Have a plan for what you and your family will do if you are forced to leave your home.  If you do have to go, the following are some items that you will want to have on hand…
- a map of the area
- a compass
- backpacks for every member of the family
- sleeping bags
- warm clothing
- comfortable shoes or hiking boots

#23 Community
One of the most important assets in any crisis situation is community.  If you have friends or neighbors that you can depend upon, that is invaluable.  The time spent building those bonds now will pay off greatly during a major crisis.

#24 Have A Back-Up Plan And Be Flexible
Mike Tyson once said the following…
“Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.”
No plan ever unfolds perfectly.  When your plan is disrupted, what will you do?
It will be imperative for all of us to have a back-up plan and to be flexible during the years ahead.

#25 Keep Your Prepping To Yourself
Do not go around and tell everyone in the area where you live about your prepping.  If you do, then you may find yourself overwhelmed with “visitors” when everything falls apart.
And please do not go on television and brag about your prepping to a national audience.
Prepping is something that you want to keep to yourself, unless you want hordes of desperate people banging on your door in the future.
*****
For much more on prepping, I would encourage you to check out the dozens of excellent websites out there that teach people advanced prepping techniques for free.
So what do you think about all of this?
Are you getting prepared for the coming economic depression?

Dream of Chaos & Egypt or The Damascus Delivery Cart Killer?

Another bad dream?  


Perhaps just another reason to look at these dreams with a discerning heart in order to consider if other dreams may have some validity. 

Deadly Demonstrations in Cairo


Today it was reported in the news that the government in Cairo has ordered the use of live ammunition against protestors.  This story reminds me of my Dream of Arab Uprising.  Looking back it appears to be a clear snapshot of Jihad.  (Source: Al Jazeera News Agency)

Dream of Arab Uprising

Pro Islamic Groups


I dreamed that I was on a downtown city street and I saw what appeared to be Arab people and what appeared to be Islamic groups marching down the street and riding bandwagons.

They were blocking off the side streets with protests so that no traffic could come through the main street.

Innocent Protestors are Shot


Jerusalem Delivery Cart - Similar to my Dream
I saw what looked like a middle eastern man who had a covered cart or wagon, the nose of a machine gun appeared to be pointing out of it. Shots started firing on innocent protesters. I was standing there with them.

I remember thinking, is he shooting this way?


African Americans Join the Movement


There seemed to be some sort of sit in organized, and people were sitting on the floor waiting for something. I noticed a number of black people who seemed to be joining this movement.  End of dream.

What is Happening is Biblical and Unprecedented


These historical events such as the Arab Uprisings and spread of Sharia law throughout the middle east by the overthrow of governments in Africa and now Syria are direct fulfillment of biblical prophecy.  The important thing to understand about prophecy is that it will tell you what is likely to transpire next.

Be Informed


What is happening in the middle east and the rest of the world affects all of us and the world is depending on each of us to be informed and do our part.

Treat others the way you would want others to treat you.  If you were suffering in a country devastated by war and you were being imprisoned, your family tortured and killed, you would want somebody to know about it and care enough to save you.

The middle eastern problem is our problem.  By being and staying informed we can monitor the direction we are headed as a nation and if nothing else, offer up our prayers and/or voice our concerns.  Let's treat others the way we would want to be treated.  Be informed, be prayerful, be prepared.

Dream Americans Lose Faith in Liberty


Dream America the Beautiful
September 23, 2005
Michelle Collier


Even a Bull Horn Won't Wake America Up!


I dreamed that I was standing on a street corner and I had a bullhorn to my mouth.
I was singing America the Beautiful, a song I rarely if ever sing.
I remember singing the phrase that goes: America, America, God shed his grace on thee.  And crown thy good with brotherhood, from sea to shining sea.
There were crowds of people walking past me as if they didn't even notice. I continued to sing.

The White Trench-Coat Mafia


A group of people dressed in white uniforms that appeared to have religious symbols on their ankle length trenchcoats walked past me emotionless and hardly even noticed me as I was singing right at them. They just walked past.  I remember thinking, who are they? Are they some kind of religious group?  End of the dream.

________________________________

American Dictatorship


There are many dreams that I have had that include President Obama that I have not published yet.  Some of them include concepts that lead me to believe there is a new religion that will be instituted in America and around the globe by the current President.  In some ways I sense it is dictatorial and other ways I sense it is extraterrestrial.  But I will have much more to say about this.  I only mention it because I believe the White Trench-Coat Mafia is associated with a religious (ET), dictatorial/political movement. 

Americans in a State of Apathy


In my dream America the Beautiful, I was struck by the apathy of Americans.  Everyone walked by completely emotionless and unconscious.  When I expected that one person would notice me lifting up America in song, there was no one to join me.  My overall sense was Americans are in complete apathy as to the way that our country is reshaping itself as a dictatorial political regime.  What will be coming next, I have no doubt will be a military staged ET invasion.   I will also have more to say on this as well.

In the meantime, please listen to and share the following video.  I am not affiliated with Mr. Greene, but I do appreciate what he has to say and have vetted most of what he is saying in this video to be true. 


Americans Are Pissed Off!



Be Informed - Resist Apathy

Dream of China & Exxon Oil Grab

Dream of China Fulfilled?

I had this dream two years ago in 2011.  At the time, it was clear to me that China was the new economic leader and was a fulfillment of an earlier dream I had in 2006.  Today I am sharing my dream of 2011 because of all the news coming out about China and Oil.

China & Exxon Oil

In this dream I saw what appeared to me to be a Chinese man who was carrying a giant Exxon Oil sign up into the sky.  Then I saw him take something and cut an opening in the sky which he managed to slip through and disappear.  I literally saw him open up the sky and slip through an invisible curtain and close the sky back up.

Dreams & Symbolism

My initial reaction to the dream was that it was highly symbolic.  The ASIAN man (could represent an Asian nation), the Exxon sign (could be literal but could also represent the Oil industry), and the sky (could represent becoming a world leader or something covert/other dimensional).  My overall impression led me to keep my eye on China and any large covert takeovers of the oil industry.
