I made some preelection preps today. I stocked up on non perishable items today. I bought 80-100 cans of veggies, paper goods, bottled water, and pet food. I already have plenty of guns and ammo. Maybe I'm nuts, but I think something will happen after the results of this election are known no matter who wins. If Trump wins, there will be riots and looting and I'll want to stay home. If Biden wins, the stock market will crash and there will be panic buying. I'm prepping for either outcome. If nothing happens, then I will be spending less on groceries in the near future. I have dunny paper to last about a year - the good stuff. (Charmin Strong - mega rolls)

I should have bought some bulk hand sanitizer while the market is still saturated. It makes great fire starter.
Have you been watching doomsday preppers Tex lol
Not lately. I don't have 20 years of freeze dried food and an underground bunker, but it doesn't hurt to have a month or two of supplies. 2020 has already taught us that.

Having empty supermarket shelves has taught me that. I've been lulled into a false sense of security though and need to up my game again.

I don't have a garden and the only animals I have to eat are chickens and ducks or eggs. I have several thousands of rounds between .22lr, 9mm, .380, 12ga, and .556 and I live with 3 other people who know how to use them. I'd really like to buy some acreage and build a place like Outlaw Yogi. I currently only live on 1 acre.

Solar power, rainwater collection, tractor, garden, fruit and nut trees, livestock, and maybe even some bees. I'd like to be able to support myself as much as possible after I retire and make my retirement savings last longer than I do. I know a man who is almost 90 and still sells vegetables from his garden. My father in law kept a large garden until he was 85 and dementia took over. I can get an agricultural exemption by raising livestock or bees on land 5 acres or larger. This lowers taxes considerably.
