This thread is for folks who are seriously preparing for the inevitable and quickly approaching mega-recession or depression. I'm truly interested in hearing from the wise folks in the forum and what you believe is the best plan of attack, so to speak.

I'm trying to prepare in as many ways as possible because I don't really know exactly what things are going to look like. I'm 100% debt free which was my starting point and first goal. I invested in a Harvest Right food freeze dryer and have been freeze drying food as much as possible. I bought a second freezer and am filling it with meat as quickly as possible. I'm still buying silver as often as possible even though the price is more than double what it was just a year ago.

I'm still putting money into savings and a 401k but I'm beginning to wonder if that's a wise thing to do. If the markets crash and if the dollar continues losing it's buying power, I may actually be throwing money away. What do you think?

Clayton of Redacted has some important news on the subject:

About the same as you. Just no freeze dryer. (I want one.) No 401k either. Just trying to keep cost of living down. Buying essentials, prep gear / supplies and a lotto ticket every week. If I had some excess $, I'd like some land and a farmhouse. I could plant some fruit trees and have a greenhouse or two.

You can get greenhouses fairly cheap...

Goddamn! You look at them tiddies and you'd think they came off of some hairy black négresse. IM2 see that and he will go hog wild!

I was visiing at a young doctors house a few years ago. He had a nice-looking wife with big tiddies. I had bought some raw milk in PA and was happy to have found some. I told her I'd like to get some direct from the tap...under the cow. (Sucking on the udders.) She about blew up. Well, guess you gotta make tradeoffs. Nice tiddies versus bitchy personality. Maybe the cow would kick me? Dunno.
