The time to become prepared is Yesterday!

To steal a line from Steven Crowder, you don't need to be a doomsday prepper to be prepared. For example, here in earthquake prone Utah, if something even a 5.0 comes along and your house slips or starts to warp off its foundation, well you're in a tent in your back yard. Or front yard depending on which way the house is leaning. Since I caught the prepper bug about a year ago let me tell of some topics that I'll be covering and somethings that you'll at least want to consider.

Here is a good rule to go by. Figure out your most likely scenario (or two) and plan for that. Here are some examples, and they don't have to be natural disasters.

1. Loss of job and perhaps out of work for a few months

2. Earthquake/Tsunami

3. Tornado

4. Hurricane/ Thunderstorm

5. Prolonged Power Outage

6. Ice Storm/Heavy Snow

7. Prolonged Drought

8. EMP and The End of the World as we Know it (TEOTWAWKI)

Here is something to consider and part of the plan you can of course apply to your own disaster plan. If an earthquake hits here, and knocks over the cell towers and take out reception, do you and your loved ones have a meet up location? What if the over passes collapse, do you have an alternative route?

There is a lot to consider. And if you have anything you'd like me to cover and discuss I'd be happy to research along with you!
