  Everybody is engaging in prepping now, in some way or another. Ever since Sandy Super Storm hit Jersey and wiped everyone living near the shoreline completely out, people realize what it means to be without electricity, food, drinkable water and fuel for weeks if not months. People are starting to buy generators, heirloom seeds, dozens of 5 gallon jugs of water, water purification kits, emergency kits, storable food by the pounds, organic soil, and they’re stockpiling cash on hand because everyone knows the big banks could all shut down on a “dime” – all on one big bad day.   But what if you’re prepping all wrong, and you’re buying GMO storable food, and you aren’t so good at indoor gardening or even outdoor, and it takes you too long to grow food, while some financial, economic and resource apocalypse strikes America, gas prices are unbelievable, the shelves are cleared of all food at the grocery stores, and people are panicking in the streets of every big...

You know, you can see the future when there are patterns that just keep repeating. Inflation follows spending, and the people who actually read and study history are prepping for 2014, the largest financial “tsunami” you may see for 50 years. Some people can only afford organic seeds and cheap generators, but that’s a great start. Some people hit by the housing bubble burst and job layoffs since 2008 are spending every extra dime on storable spring water, camping gear and tools.
