Prepping for different situations are a good idea. We have so many different situations that one can not prep totally for one and not another. I guess a person has to take a long look at the things going on around them and figure out what is most important. Being that I am from OK and my roots have been here for a few generations our biggest threat is weather, then again we had the Murrah Bombing in 1995, that showed us that the midwest is vulnerable. I know that I am not happy with my preps but do what I can, and to be honest will never be truly happy with my preps. Time will tell, hopefully we will never have to use our skills to survive--I like indoor plumbing,heated house in winter, cool house in the summer, running water, a roof over my head, being able to go into the tore and get supplies without having to toil for it, but what we can call "fun" or a "hobby" is in reality a prep. Making it through a breakdown will be something in itself, but having a skill that you can trade for other items/services will be important too--think about how many people can work on a motor, farm or ranch on a scale needed to support a family, mechanically inclined, those who can actually make something work.......see what I am getting at?
