My additional thoughts on why I prepare and for what types of things.

I am a very lazy person. I do not like to be inconvenienced. I do not want to have to chase down my next meal, or have to work to get a drink of water. I do not want to have to work on the computer by firelight. So, I prep. There are some other reasons, too, of course. However, I want my Basic Human Needs met by doing things as nearly as the way I do them now. Prepping has, and will, allow me to do that.


Attached are a .pdf of a list of threats I consider when planning preps, and a Threat Matrix Spreadsheet that may help a person with prioritizing their needs.

Just my opinion.
