Worldwide Collapse “IS” DELIBERATELY to bring in the New World Order
There are “2” Types of Collapse

Why Most Will DIE
vs
How to Survive
Physical safety,
not money, not food, not fuel,
becomes the primary variable in whether you live.
Proverbs 27:12 AMP
A prudent man sees evil and hides himself and avoids it, But the naive [who are easily misled] continue on and are punished [by suffering the consequences of sin].
A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.
Prudent people see evil and hide; the simpleminded go right to it and get punished.
The clever see trouble coming and hide; the thoughtless go on and pay the penalty.
Be cautious and hide when you see danger— don't be stupid and walk right into trouble.
.
Wise people see trouble coming and get out of its way, but fools go straight to the trouble and suffer for it.
A careful person can see danger and he will hide himself. But a silly person never stops, and he walks into trouble.
A sensible person sees trouble and hides, but naïve people keep going and pay the penalty.
The ·wise [prudent] see ·danger [evil; trouble] ahead and avoid it, but fools ·keep going [go straight to it] and ·get into trouble [or are punished].

Two men, both careful, both thoughtful, both spent years getting ready for collapse.
One of them survived, the other did not survive= died.
The first man lives on the edge of Caracas in the year 2015.
He has gold coins in a floor safe. He has 3 months of rice and beans. He
has a vegetable garden, a small generator, and two loyal dogs. When
the Bolivar collapses, he survives. He sells gold coins one at a
time. He trades eggs for medicine. He is thinner, poorer, more tired,
but he is alive. He is at home.
The second
man lives in a nice apartment in Sarajevo in March of 1992.
He owns the same gold coins, the same stored food, the same ideology
of self-reliance. His neighbors respect him.
3 weeks later, Serbian artillery opens fire from the hills above the city.
His gold cannot buy what is not available.
His stored flour is looted in the first week. The window of his apartment
faces Grbavica. A sniper kills his wife on the way to the water tap.
Both
men prepared.
One prepared correctly. The other prepared for the wrong collapse.
And that is what we are going to talk about today, because there are
two categorically different kinds of collapse. Most of what you have
read quietly conflates them. The prepper community treats them as one
noun. They are not one thing. They are two different physics
problems, and the strategy that saves you in one will kill you in the
other.
Now, the traditional story is this:
Collapse is collapse. The system breaks.
The trucks stop.
The shelves go empty.
You need food, water, a weapon, and a plan. The survivalist industry gives
you all four.
You buy a retreat property.
You build a pantry. You dig a well. You bury gold in the yard. You call it
a homestead, and you wait. And in this traditional story, gold is
gold, no matter what kind of trouble you face.
Food storage is food storage. A fixed address with a full ladder and a
rifle at the door is the answer to every question. Does that make
sense?
This is the picture in most people's heads. This is what 10,000
YouTube channels sell. This is what the catalog wants you to believe.
But here is the problem with this story:
The man in Caracas did fine with
his gold and his garden and his fixed address.
The man in Sarajevo died.
They had identical preparations.
BUT here is THE KEY:
They faced different collapses.
And the single biggest mistake in modern survivalist thinking is
treating those two situations as the same situation.
Let me define the two collapse types precisely. This is really important.
Type one is economic collapse. The currency fails.
Supply chains break.
Banks close or pretend to stay open while quietly taking your money.
But the state still exists. Police still get paid, sometimes in dollars
under the table. Courts still function, slowly, badly, corruptly.
Property rights are enforced selectively. Life goes on in a
degraded form. Think Weimar Germany from 1921 to 1923. Think
Argentina in 2001. Think Venezuela from 2013 to today. Think Lebanon
since 2019.
Think Zimbabwe in 2008. Type two
is military/POLICE collapse. The state's grip
on violence breaks. There is active combat, siege, foreign
occupation.
Physical safety,
not money, not food, not fuel,
becomes the primary variable in whether you live.
Every
asset designed for type one becomes a liability. Stored gold marks
you as a target. Your homestead at a fixed address becomes a
known objective!!! A full pantry is a magnet for armed men. Think
Stalingrad in 1942.
Think Leningrad from 1941 to 1944.
Think Warsaw in 1944.
Think
Berlin in 1945.
Think Sarajevo from 1992 to 1996.
Okay? Two collapse types, different physics, different timelines, different optimal
responses. Let me prove it with the historical record. Let me start
with the economic collapses. I want you to see the pattern across five cases, because the pattern is
more powerful than any single case. Weimar Germany, 1921 to 1923. In
January of 1921, one American dollar bought 65 marks. By November of
1923, one dollar bought 4 trillion 210 billion marks. Think
about what that means. Prices doubled every day in September of that
year. An eyewitness named Erna von Pustau described what happened.
Big businesses priced their goods in gold value. They paid workers in
inflated marks. The great losers were the salaried middle class, the
pensioners, the savers.
People who had spent 30 years building a nest egg watched it
vanish in 90 days.
Who won? = Farmers, industrial
owners, anyone who held tangible things.
The industrialist Hugo Stinnes borrowed marks early, bought mines and
ships and newspapers, and repaid his loans weeks later for almost
nothing. Because the loan was denominated in marks, and marks had
become worthless. City dwellers who survived took a train out to
the countryside. The Germans had a name for this. They called it the
Hamsterfahrt, the hoarding trip. They packed suitcases full
of household objects and traded with farmers. A grand piano for a
sack of potatoes, a silver canteen for a side of salt beef.
And who among the city people fared best?
The Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond reviewed the historical record and
drew one clear conclusion.
Out of the City dwellers
with relations in the countryside WITH FARMERS survived better than those who had none.
Not gold, not a bunker, a cousin on a farm in Brandenburg. Okay, that
is Weimar.
Argentina, 2001 to 2002.
On December the 1st, 2001, the economy minister imposed what
Argentines called the corralito.
That word means the little corral. It means a small pen.
Bank accounts were frozen. Withdrawals capped at 250
pesos a week.
20 days later, after riots in the streets, the president resigned.
The country cycled through five presidents in 12 days. The
peso-dollar peg, held since 1991, broke in January. Depositors lost
roughly 60% of their savings in dollar terms. By October of 2002,
the poverty rate had hit 57 and 1/2%. Seven of 10 Argentine children
were poor.
The people who did well held physical dollars outside the banking system.
Argentines called these colchón dollars.
Colchón means mattress, mattress dollars. Fernando Aguirre,
who documented his family's survival through the crisis, observed
that silver was more useful than gold for small daily transactions.
You cannot make change for a gold coin when you want a dozen eggs. A
barter network emerged using a homemade local currency called the
crédito. Two and a half million Argentines eventually joined it. The
losers were depositors who trusted the banks,
pensioners, bondholders who eventually took a 76% haircut in the 2005
restructuring. Does that make sense? The pattern is already clear. Local
currency savings go to zero. Tangible assets hold. Hard
foreign currency in small bills is king. Social networks
WITH THE FARMERS replace market systems.
Venezuela,
2013 to today.
Real income has contracted roughly 75% since 2013.
That is the largest non-conflict economic in 50 years.
Hyperinflation peaked, by economist Steve Hanke's measurement, at
344,509% annualized in January of 2019.
Almost 8 million Venezuelans have emigrated. That is the
largest displacement crisis in the Western Hemisphere. And yet,
Caracas is not Sarajevo. The state remains. The police remain. Maduro
remains. This is the purest modern example of type one collapse.
Economic catastrophe without civil war. The government is horrible.
The government is functional. Those two facts coexist. What works in
Venezuela is dollars.
Maduro legalized them in November of 2019.
More than half of domestic transactions are now conducted in American
dollars.
Remittances from the diaspora total more than 5 billion dollars a year.
They constitute 80% of household income for many families. Gold, artisanal
gold from the Arco Minero paid in flakes, now buys haircuts and meals
in mining towns.
A software engineer who plays Runescape online earns more than a medical
doctor.
That is not a metaphor. It is a documented fact. This is
really important. Type one rewards the
person that keep their money in their own personal home as “Portable”
foreign wealth,
Has a productive skill,
and a social network that crosses borders.
Lebanon
since October of 2019.
On October the 17th, a proposed tax on WhatsApp triggered mass protests.
Within weeks, banks imposed informal capital controls. Not by law, by
simply refusing to give depositors their money.
The black market exchange rate went from 1,500 lira to the dollar to
roughly 89,000 lira to the dollar by 2024.
The lira lost more than 98% of its value.
Economist Dan Azzi coined a term for what happened to dollar deposits
inside Lebanese banks. He called them lollars.
A lollar is a dollar trapped in the Lebanese banking system, redeemable
only in lira at a rate chosen by the government, carrying an
effective haircut of 70 to 85%.
About 80% of Lebanese were pushed into poverty. And here is the detail
that I want you to remember. In 2019, before the public knew anything
was wrong, more than 10 billion dollars quietly left the country.
VIAthe accounts of the largest depositors, AND in the accounts of the
politically connected. While the central bank governor publicly
denied that capital controls were coming.
This is how type one collapse works. The people
with inside information leave first. The ordinary depositor
waits for official reassurance, and the reassurance is the signal
that it is already too late. Zimbabwe, 2007 to 2008. Peak
hyperinflation, roughly 79.6 billion percent per month in November
of 2008. Prices doubling every 25 hours.
The second worst hyperinflation in recorded history after Hungary in 1946.
The Zimbabwe dollar was abandoned in April of 2009. What worked?
American dollars, South African rand, remittances from the three to
four million Zimbabweans who had already emigrated, artisanal gold,
cattle in rural areas, women crossing the border into South Africa
with goods on their backs, reselling in Zimbabwe.
Fuel coupons denominated in dollars became an unofficial currency.
What failed? Anyone holding Zimbabwe dollar savings. Teachers and nurses
went unpaid for months. Infant mortality doubled. Life expectancy
fell to 34 years for women, 37 for men. The lowest figures in the
world at that time. Okay.
Five economic collapses, same
lesson every time.
The consistent winners across every type one collapse, personally in their home held:
physical foreign hard currency, = nothing held in a Bank, nor in a paper investment fund.
The survivors held gold in small denominations,
productive land with secure title,
portable professional skills and
diaspora networks.
The consistent losers, local currency savers, pensioners, fixed
income, bondholders, and anyone who trusted a formal
institution past the moment that institution
started publicly denying the problem.
Now,
watch what happens when we flip the physics, the siege of Leningrad.
872 days, September of 1941 to January of 1944.
The pre-war population of Leningrad was roughly 3,200,000 people.
Deaths during the siege, between 1 million and 1 and 1/2 million.
In January of 1942 alone, 100,000 Leningraders died,
mostly from starvation and cold, not shelling.
The single most important variable in survival was evacuation before
September the 8th, 1941.
That was the day German forces closed the ring at Schlüsselburg.
About 600,000 people got out before the ring closed. Another roughly 1
million escaped across the frozen Lake Ladoga in the winter of 1942.
Those who did not escape lived under the ration system.
Factory workers received 250 g of bread per
day.
That is the size of a small apple.
White-collar workers, children, and dependents received 125
g per day. That is a thin slice, adulterated
with cellulose and sawdust. This is where the phrase 125 g of hope
comes from. Now, here is the crucial detail.
There was a class of people inside Leningrad who became known as
the blockade millionaires, warehouse clerks, bakers, truck drivers on
the ice road, anyone with access to food.
These people grew fat while their neighbors starved. And what did they accept in exchange for
bread and butter and sugar? Gold, jewelry,
furs, antiques, first editions of Pushkin.
Research
from St. Petersburg State University documents the scene.
Starving Leningraders were stunned by the healthy appearance of the
counter workers who bought up and exchanged
gold and jewelry and furs for food.
A full mink coat bought a single piece of bread.
A sewing machine bought a few potatoes.
And
the gold holders, they died alongside their neighbors because gold is
only useful if someone will accept it in exchange for something
you need. And when there is nothing to buy, gold is a shiny rock.
Read the diaries of Elena Skrjabina, a Leningrad teacher who survived.
November the 12th, 1941.
She wrote, "I visited a lady I know, and she let me try one of her
culinary inventions, a jelly made from
leather belts." People cut up their parquet floors
for firewood. 1,216 people were murdered for their ration cards in the
first 6 months of 1942 alone.
What actually saved the survivors?
Evacuation before the ring closed,
a factory job with institutional food access,
a relative in the food handling chain,
the physical ability to queue for 12 hours at minus 30° C.
None of those things can be bought. All of them require relationships that
exist before the crisis begins, okay? That is Leningrad.
Now, Stalingrad. Stalingrad, August of 1942 to February of 1943.
Stalin refused civilian evacuation because the factories had to
keep running.
When the Luftwaffe delivered its bombs on August the 23rd, 1942, in
1,600 sorties in a single day, 90% of Stalingrad's wooden housing
burned.
Civilian deaths in that one week of bombing may have reached 40,000.
When the Red Army recaptured the city in February of 1943, officials found
9,976 civilians alive in the ruins.
94 of those were children.
Of those 94 children, only nine were ever reunited with their parents.
There was no gold for bread market in Stalingrad. There
was almost no bread.
Gold was irrelevant. Location was everything. The civilians who survived were those who sheltered in the
city's deepest basements OR THE HIGHEST MOUNTAINS and were not
killed before liberation.
Warsaw,
August to October of 1944.
Hitler's order on August the 1st read, "Every
inhabitant should be killed. No prisoners are to be
taken." In what is now called the Wola massacre, the SS murdered
between 40 and 50,000 Polish civilians in a single district in 7
days.
A German witness account from that district reads, "They
murdered, pillaged, and collected rings and jewels, watches and
gold." Notice the sequence, robbed first, shot afterward.
Wealth accelerated death rather than preventing it.
At the transit camp in Ochota, SS troops searched every civilian at the
gate for valuables before herding them onward.
150,000 civilians were killed in 63 days.
500,000 were deported through the transit camp at Pruszków.
After the uprising was crushed, the Germans spent 3 months
dynamiting Warsaw. 75% of the city was destroyed.
Property did not lose value. Property literally stopped existing.
The pianist Władysław Szpilman survived 3 years hiding in
Warsaw's ruins. He survived partly by luck, but the fundamental
reason he lived is that more than 20 non-Jewish Poles hid him at
mortal risk to themselves and their families.
His survival was not bought with gold.
It was given by human beings.
Berlin,
April to May of 1945.
The Red Army entered Berlin 1 and 1/2 million strong.
The Charité and August Victoria Hospitals later estimated that
between 95,000 and 130,000 women were raped in Berlin alone.
Roughly 10,000 died from the assaults or from suicide afterward.
The journalist Marta Hillers kept a diary during the occupation,
later published as A Woman in Berlin.
She described what actually kept her alive, not gold.
The Red Army confiscated watches, rings, silver, and porcelain within the
first hours of occupying any apartment, not cash. The Reichsmark had
collapsed.
Cigarettes had become the new currency at roughly 300 marks per pack,
not stored food. Soldiers found it and took it.
What kept her alive was language. She spoke Russian, one of very few
Berlin women who did.
She negotiated the attachment of a Soviet major as a personal protector.
Below her, cellar communities of women shared warnings, shared hiding
places behind false walls, smeared each other's faces with coal dust,
and tied head scarves to look older. Solo women fared far worse than
women in tight building collectives. Does that make sense? This is
really important. In every military collapse, dense human networks
and physical invisibility mattered more than stored wealth. So
hide in the MOUNTAINS.
The assets designed for economic collapse became liabilities.
Gold marked you as worth robbing.
A visible stockpile drew armed men to your door.
A fixed address meant the enemy knew where to find you.
Sarajevo, 1,425 days
from April of 1992 to February of 1996.
The longest siege of a capital city in modern warfare.
An average of 329 mortar shells per day.
What was the currency in besieged Sarajevo?
Marlboro cigarettes. A pack bought several cans of humanitarian aid.
Local Drina cigarettes traded three packs for 20 marks.
Gold rings were exchanged for eggs.
1 kg of raw coffee bought a 12 kg propane canister for heating.
But here is what actually determined survival, tunnel access OR MOUNTAIN
ACCESS.
In mid-1993, Bosnian army engineers finished digging a tunnel under
the United Nations-held airport runway, about 800 m long, 1 m wide, 1
and 1/2 m high. At peak, roughly 4,000 people and 20 tons of supplies
passed through it each day. Whether you had a connection to the
Bosnian army or cash for the guards or cigarettes for the
right person determined whether you received medicine.
Location mattered.
Sniper Alley was a death corridor.
On July the 12th, 1993, 12 people were killed in a single
water queue.
Who escaped Sarajevo before the
siege closed? Those with relatives elsewhere, those with foreign
passports, those who read the signals
early.
The siege closed on May the 2nd, 1992.
The people who left in March and April kept their assets. The people who
waited until May lost everything. Now, stand back. Look at the full
picture across all five military collapses. Leningrad, Stalingrad,
Warsaw, Berlin, Sarajevo.
The consistent winners were those who left
first, AND HEADED UP INTO THE MOUNTAINS
those embedded in the right institution,
those with dense human networks, and
those who were physically invisible.
People who looked too poor or too old or too sick to be worth robbing, and
the plainly lucky.
Not
one of those variables is something you purchase with gold. This is
the lesson.
And it is almost exactly the opposite of the type one lesson.
Now, let me draw the contrast directly.
Because this is what most people miss.
Type one collapse rewards
rootedness, modest visible productivity, and stored wealth
that looks ordinary to outsiders.
You want to seem like a slightly boring neighbor with a vegetable garden.
You want local ties.
You want a skill your community needs.
You want gold coins hidden well.
Type two collapse rewards
mobility and
visibility and
social capital that cannot be stolen at a checkpoint. You want to
look like you have nothing.
You want to move when you need to move.
You want human relationships across more than one geography.
These are nearly opposite optimizations.
Fernando
Aguirre, who documented his family's survival in Argentina, and Selco
Begovic, who survived the siege of Sarajevo, are the two most cited
survivor voices in the prepper community.
They disagree on almost every tactical question, and they disagree for
a reason.
They survived different collapses.
Ferfal says stay put, dollarize, build a small business, maintain modest visibility.
Selco says leave early
or not at all,
wear gray man clothing,
no logos,
no tactical gear, p
ull with neighbors into a single building,
hide food in small caches and
never in one visible pile.
Both are right about what they saw.
Both are wrong
if you apply their advice to the other collapse.
So,
how do you know which collapse you're facing?
This is the skill we need to build together.
The signals for economic collapse appear months, sometimes years, in advance.
Let me walk you through them.
The first signal is
the
gap between the official exchange rate and the black market rate.
In Venezuela, this gap widened from roughly two to one in 2010 to 10 to
one by late 2013.
In Lebanon, it appeared overnight in October of 2019.
When the official rate and the street rate diverge visibly, that is
the beginning.
The second signal is the depletion
of central bank foreign reserves. This is usually published monthly.
When reserves fall below three months of import coverage, a currency
crisis is probable within 18 months.
The third signal is what the elites are doing, not what they're saying.
Lebanese insiders withdrew more than
10 billion dollars in 2019 while the central bank governor
publicly ruled out capital controls.
In Argentina, large dollar deposits left the banking system in the months
before the corralito.
Wealthy connected people in every collapse leave
before the public announcement.
Watch for brain drain, emigration of middle-class professionals and sudden capital outflows.
The
fourth signal is official denial.
When the finance minister gives a press conference to
assure depositors their savings are safe, treat that
press conference as the signal to act. These are the signals for
type one. You may have months. You may have years. The window is
long. The signals for type two collapse are different in kind, and
the window is short.
The
first signal is visible troop buildups near borders or in
disputed regions.
Russia had 175,000 troops staged near Ukraine's border by late 2021.
The second signal is paramilitaries armed outside the state's
official chain of command.
The Bosnian Serb militias were forming and arming through the winter of
1991 to 1992.
The Serbian Democratic Party told Sarajevo's Serbs to evacuate on
April the 4th, 1992.
The shelling began the next day.
The third signal is the assassination of mid-level politicians,
journalists, and judges in a rising pattern, not one event, a pattern
over weeks.
The
fourth signal is governments arming civilians along identity lines.
When the state begins handing weapons to one ethnic or political group and
not another, the monopoly on violence is already broken in practice.
The fifth signal is foreign embassies drawing down non-essential staff. This is almost always the last public signal before the window closes. Embassies have intelligence services. They know before you do.
Now, let me give you
A framework.
13 questions.
You can run this in 15 minutes.
One,
are courts still functioning, however corruptly?
Two, is the violence present opportunistic crime or organized combat?
Three, are police and military being paid and deployed, or are they
defecting along ethnic or political lines?
Four, are foreign embassies drawing down staff?
Five, are borders open or militarized?
Six, are banks open with restrictions or physically closed?
Seven, does grid, water, and sewage function even intermittently?
^1 through 7^
Type
2= you die:
Eight, is there organized armed resistance against the state
with uniforms and held territory?
Nine, is there visible external military buildup?
10, is violence targeting random victims or specific identity groups?
11, is
the currency merely hyper-inflating or has it been replaced by
cigarettes and ammunition?
12, are political figures and journalists being killed in a
rising pattern?
13, is the government arming civilians along identity lines?
If questions one through seven degrade, but questions eight through 13 remain quiet, you are in type one. You have time. Preserve value, keep your job, dollarize, build networks, stay put.
VS
If any of questions eight, nine, 12, or 13
flip to yes, you're in type two or converting toward it.
The optimal move is to leave.
Does
that make sense?
Now, here is the thing that should concern you most.
Some
type one collapses convert into type two.
And that conversion is where most families die.
Yugoslavia went from type one to type two in roughly three years.
Hyperinflation in the late 1980s, ethnic entrepreneurs stoking identity
conflict by 1987, paramilitaries forming by 1990, siege of Sarajevo
by 1992, Syria converted in nine months, rural drought and
displacement, then protest arrests in March of 2011, then civil war
by December.
Lebanon converted in 1975 in weeks.
A fisherman strike in February.
The Ain el Remmaneh bus attack on April the 13th.
Militia checkpoints within days.
The pivot window, the time between clear conversion signals and the closure
of exit options, is typically 30 to 90 days.
If any of questions eight, nine, 12, or 13 flip to yes,
you're in type two or converting toward it.
Sarajevans
who left in February of 1992 kept their assets.
Those who waited until May lost everything.
The families who pivoted successfully share a pattern.
They had current passports.
They had a specific destination with
a specific person waiting.
They had liquid portable wealth,
coins,
hard currency,
now a hardware cryptocurrency wallet.
They had a written list of three specific events that meant they
left this week, not after one more harvest.
And when those events occurred, they left.
They did not negotiate with themselves. They accepted the sunk cost.
They walked away from the homestead, from the pantry, from the
stored firewood.
I don't know if I'm right that every person reading this will face
a collapse. I hope they won't.
But I am confident that the failure to distinguish between these
two collapse types has been the most costly strategic error in modern
survivalist thinking.
Now, let me tell you what you should actually do.
Because some preparations serve both collapse types, and
that short list is where your time and money should go.
The first thing is
Skills
that produce value outside the money system:
1.) A plumber works in Argentina and in Sarajevo.
Skills are the only asset that cannot be confiscated.
The
second thing is physical fitness, not
tactical training.
Physical fitness, the
capacity to walk 10 miles with a 20-lb load, the
capacity to queue for three hours,
the capacity to carry water from a half kilometer away.
In Leningrad, the people who died first were the elderly, the obese, and
the sick.
In the German expulsion columns of 1945, historians document the same
pattern.
Physical fitness is the most unsexy survival prep and the most
consistently documented as decisive. Walk every day.
a friend in another country who has a spare room,
a neighbor you have helped with things before you needed help yourself.
Szpilman survived Warsaw because 20 people risked their lives for him. He had spent years building those relationships before the war.
fractional gold coins,
small denomination silver,
hard foreign currency in small bills, and increasingly for the diaspora connected,
a hardware cryptocurrency wallet.
These travel through checkpoints. They convert in any exchange market.
They work in Venezuela and in Lebanon and in any type
one collapse you're likely to face. Okay?
Those four things, skills, fitness, relationships, and
portable liquid wealth.
That
is the short list. Everything else, the tactical vest,
the buried bunker, the five-year pantry, the visible arsenal, that is
narrative more than infrastructure.
Some of it helps in type one. Almost none of it helps in type two.
The Sarajevans who survived did not look prepared. They looked like everyone else. That was the
strategy.
So, here is what I want you to do this week. Take a piece of paper, write
down the 13 questions from this
episode, then look at the news in your own country or region. Answer each question honestly.
Put a date at the top of the page. Do this again in 30 days. You're
not looking for alarm, you're looking for direction of travel, whether the answers are getting better or worse.
That practice, that monthly honest assessment, is worth more than any
piece of gear you will ever buy.
And this weekend, one physical thing. Go for a long walk.
Longer than you think you can manage. In the shoes you actually own.
That walk will tell you something true about your actual preparation.
The bag in the closet is not the answer to every collapse.
The gold
in the safe is not the answer to every collapse.
And the homestead with the full pantry and
the rifle at the door is a beautiful answer to one kind of crisis and a death sentence in another.
Two men, both prepared, one survived.
The difference was not the quality of their preparation.
The difference was the type of
collapse they faced and whether their
preparation matched it.
Read the signals. Match your preparation to your actual environment and
build the four assets that survive both.
Because the future is not one thing. It is two different physics problems and
the most important decision you will ever make is which one you're actually solving for.
CORRECT accessment of your city’s situation matters in both collapse
types,
Follow the above plans in the historical record BECAUSE they ARE life saving IF YOU FOLLOW THEM.
All of God wise servants like David
Got out of the cities and hid in the forests and caves, including prophets like Elijah.
Do the same as God’s wise servants of the past
BECAUSE collapse= NO FOOD in stores= STARVATION is COMING TO America.
And I
want to show you how a person who has never farmed, never fixed an
engine, and never treated a wound can begin acquiring those skills in
a single weekend.
Be careful out there.
