ParticipantAgree completely, Arraya.
Rustico, let’s not mistake the desire to be self-sufficient — and in doing so, enhance our ability to help others — with “greed”. I fully anticipate that I will be called upon to help family and friends, and I am more than prepared to do so. However, without the proper resources, I won’t be able to do so. I’m certainly not looking to “steal” land. But I plan to be out of LA by the time the level of unrest becomes palpable to the general public, living on a spread large enough to accommodate my family and others who are in need and wish to join me. Frankly, I can’t see getting through the coming years without relying on a close-knit community of friends and family. I would hope that everyone will have something to bring to the table: land, seeds, skills, food, ammo and other hard assets. And if I can make the purchase farm-producing land at a bargain-basement price as real estate becomes increasingly illiquid, why should I be faulted for my foresight?
You might be interested in knowing that I have gone to great lengths over the past 2-1/2 years to sound the alarm and reach out to any and all friends and family who will listen. I advised them to sell their real estate; to greatly reduce their stock exposure; to keep plenty of cash on hand; to buy a weapon; to stock up on food and other supplies. I warned those I know, just as I wanted to warn others in this post. And many of my friends have actually thanked me recently for saving their financial hides. I know for a fact that everyone who has taken my advice is in a vastly superior position to survive what’s coming.
So, if the question is whether I will be “useful” to anyone when the hypothetical Helter Skelter scenarios come to pass, the answer is simple: I’ve already ben useful to plenty of people BEFORE the unthinkable happens. And that’s when it counts most. Because preparation is everything. I’m not giving these people fish; I’m teaching them HOW to fish.
Now, let me ask you: how do YOU propose to be “useful” when TSHTF? π

ParticipantYes, I’ve been reading a lot about this, too. Between the fear of an Obama win (gun control goes wild), the fear of an Obama loss (irrational fear of riots and unrest), and the economy melting down uncontrollably, it looks as though guns and ammo may soon provide the best return on investment π

ParticipantIndeed, you do sound extremely prepared, Nost. I tip my hat to you. The pretty metals are not meant to be held indefinitely; only to be used to accumulate *real* things like a productive farm or acreage for bargain prices when the currency collapses. There will most definitely come a time when even metal will become valueless.
BTW, what’s a “peace maker”? A gun? π
