  • Survivine the Economic Collapse - a book

    I think I have mentioned this before, but with everything going on I think it deserves it's own thread.


    Here is the link to buy the book if you are interested; it is not available at your local barnes and nobles.

    Here is the description; I think this is on the back cover as well.
    My book is a Modern Survival Manual based on first hand experience of the 2001 Economic Collapse in Argentina. In it you will find a variety of subjects that I consider essential if a person wants to be prepared for tougher times: -How to prepare your family, yourself, your home and your vehicle -How to prepare your finances so that you don't suffer what millions in my country went through -How to prepare your supplies for food shortages and power failures -How to correctly fight with a chair, gun, knife, pen or choke with your bare hands if required -Most important, how to reach a good awareness level so that you can avoid having to do all that These are just a few examples of what you will find in this book. It's about Attitude, and being a more capable person and get the politically correct wimp out of your system completely.

    Basically, this guy was living in Argentina during their collapse and he saw firsthand what works and what doesn't to survive day to day. Alot of stuff in this book is stuff you have already read elsewhere, but quite a bit of it was interesting. There were some good indicators listed that tell you how far into a collapse you are; some of them you know and others you may not think about, but a surprising number of them are present in the states already. Short book and a good read; his writing style isn't great but it is good to have information from someone that actually experienced a collapse instead of people throwing out info with no real world backing.

            I'm curious how this relates to the US. When a small country fails there are other stable countries to place your assets. When THE country fails, all others attached are coming with it. This is where hard assets, a location in a small country and a bought police force comes in handy.

              He talks about several of those issues; how having cheap gold and silver jewelry for barter was an excellent tool during a particularly rough time; mind you he advises not to try to barter with actual coins as they draw more attention. He does mention that in his opinion the likelyhood of a total collapse into mad max is extremely unlikely; politicians have a habit of doing everything possible to keep that from happening, if for no other reason to save their own asses.

                      Most people I talk to have nothing but good things to say about you, but you sure come across as a condescending prick. Do you have an inferiority complex you've attempted to overcome through overachievement? Or were you fondled as a child?

                      You and slow99 should date. You both have passive aggressiveness down pat.

                              We should pool our resources and buy Texas World Speedway. The oval presents a nice perimeter barrier with only 2 entrances through tunnels, has a tower with commanding view of the the surrounding area, runs off a well and could run off a genset fairly easily.

                              Just need about 6000 of you to give me $1000 memberships. Plenty of parking available and bring your RV's or tents....and of course, your Ammo!
