FINANCIAL
DISASTER PREPARATION
|
Have you ever wondered
what skills you might want or need in an economic crisis?
Do you have a financial plan for your family if we were
ever to have a financial depression? There are several
methods to procure goods and provide for the needs of
our families. Preppers try to research and develop more
than one strategy for doing anything, that includes emergency
financial planning. Below are some essentials for an emergency
financial plan.

| FINANCIAL
DISASTER PREPARATION
|
|
1.
CASH
Cash is still king! In the great Chicago fire of 1871, most
people were trying to escape the city. The ones with cash
reserves were able to rent and purchase wagons and horses
to quickly make their way out. Add a mix of small bills
& large bills to your bug out bag or fire safe. The
small bills are for small purchases. Many believe that people
will overpay for items in emergency situations because no
one will have time to give back change. The large bills
are for bribes or big purchases. |

2.
ONE YEAR'S SUPPLY OF EMERGENCY SUPPLIES
Having food, water, warmth, first aid, and hygiene supplies
means that you won’t have to worry about paying or
bartering for items. Create a plan and calculate the number
of supplies to get you through a year. |

3.
GOLD SILVER AND COPPER
If the dollar collapses it is very likely that gold, silver,
and copper will be the next currency. There are affordable
ways to stock up on these commodities. In the nonfiction
book: The Modern Survival Manual: Surviving the Economic
Collapse of Argentina the author was asked what he wished
he would have done to prepare, he said, I wish I would have
had a stash of men’s silver wedding bands to barter
with. Selling a wedding band looks like your selling the
last valuable possession you own, so you’re less likely
to attract robbers. Add a few silver coins to your emergency
stash every year. |

4.
GOODS TO BARTER WITH
Goods such as food, soap, fire starters, and self-defense
weapons will always be in demand. If money loses its value
items such as these will be useful for trading for others
things you’ll unexpectedly need. Start developing
your barter network now. My aunt barters apples from her
tree for vegetables from her neighbors garden. Think of
which commodities you want to stock-up on for bartering
purposes |

5.
DEVELOPE YOUR BARTERING SKILLS
Consider developing a skill that is of value in a bartering
economy. It’s the safest of all of the 5 Essentials
for an Emergency Financial Plan. All the others can be stolen
or lost in a crisis. Skills you’ll always have, whereas,
goods you can run out of. My uncle bartered his handyman
skill regularly. He had a seasonal job at a meat workswhich
meant that he was laid-off a couple of months each year.
When he was laid-off, he would take whatever work he could
find, even if the payment for his work was in goods rather
than cash. |
