No skills when SHTF, what’s your worth?

10/10/17 • 60 min

This week on the “The Prepping Academy” Forrest and Tenderfoot are going to be discussing if you have not skills during a SHTF scenario you are worthless to others. This will be hard for some to take but it’s true.Preppers have a bad reputation for hoarding gear, stocking up on a year’s-worth (or more) of food, and packing bug out bags that could supply a platoon. In almost all cases, these preppers would be screwed if there were a disaster or SHTF. Gear and supplies are useless unless you still have it when you need it, and know how to use them.The precept of knowledge weighing nothing has been a long-term idea in my thinking. I love learning how to do things and how to adapt my surroundings by adapting what I have available for new purposes. Also, if something like a regional disaster hits your area, you may be surviving with only what you have on you at that moment and all that stuff you collected will be useless. So Knowledge and Skills are King.Skills won’t run out, and in a prolonged emergency that makes them far more valuable for trade than anything else. You don’t have to be an expert at every survival skill to survive a disaster–very few people have mastered all the skills. However, there are a handful of skills that everyone will need in a true SHTF scenario, especially if they’re on their own.Please be sure if you’ve not already signed up for “The Prepping Academy” newsletter go to www.preppingacademy.com Join us for The Prepping Academy “LIVE SHOW” every Monday Night 9:00 PM EST at http://prepperbroadcasting.com Also join us for our LIVE interactive Chat room at Prepper Broadcasting Network home page.

Prepping on a Budget!

This week on the “The Prepping Academy” Forrest and Tenderfoot are going to be discussing one of the most talked about subjects in prepping, Prepping on a Budget. This subject has been on every blog and podcast out there. On this show we hope to share with you a whole knew thinking strategy with it comes to buying your prepping supplies.Being a prepper is all about setting priorities and being responsible. If you’ve been on any survival forums or watched doomsday prepping shows on television, you’ve likely seen individuals that have committed an enormous amount of their time and money into preparing for TEOTWAWKI. Prepping can be an expensive project. Many preppers buy a few things here and there as they can afford to, all the while feeling like they’ll never have enough food, water, emergency supplies, and gear to meet their family need. How do you prepare for long-term shortages when you have trouble making ends meet while ‘times are good?’We have found several ways to get many of your preps for little or no money. We are pretty sure no matter your situation you can use one or more of these ideas to help you save money on your own gear and supplies. One of the keys to prepping on a budget is going slow. Whenever you have extra money, invest a little bit into your prepping. Eventually you will have a fully stocked storage room full of all the essential gear you need to survive a fully blown SHTF situation.Please be sure if you’ve not already signed up for “The Prepping Academy” newsletter go to www.preppingacademy.com Join us for The Prepping Academy “LIVE SHOW” every Monday Night 9:00 PM EST at http://prepperbroadcasting.com Also join us for our LIVE interactive Chat room at Prepper Broadcasting Network home page.
