We will always have disasters big and small. We just prepare the best we can and pray.
As a LTL driver when I saw that the key bridge was knocked down I was in shock . I don’t think most people realize is that bridge was a key crossing for hazmat freight. This is going to throw wrenches into logistics and the way goods are delivered.
For months, if not years...
I bought $$$$ 25,000 worth of gold last week.
But How does one get Change for purchases?? 😮😮
DONE ON PURPOSE.

Maybe get some silver instead
I do a lot of camping and have camping supplies, including power stations and solar panels. My stations power USB lights and other USB devices. The sun powers my stations.
I think if people had camping accessories it would help them survive.
What brand power station do you recommend?
Priority for USB devices?.....not sure we should think our phones or internet will be working.
Most important is not electronic it's a -20 degree sleeping bag that is next to your bed.
I'm in public housing and our power goes down you have NOTHING untill they fix it. ( which can take hours) the apt drops below freezing in 10 minutes flat.
@@user-oe6wq7pu8d learn where the breaker is for your apartment, turn off the breaker to your apartment, to isolate it so you don't back feed the system. Then plug in a solar generator like a ecoflow, a 2000w will be fine, the delta pro 3600 is optimum. You plug it into your electrical system w what is called a suicide cord, a cord w two male ends. This will power up your apartment, it will also feed out into the grid so make sure you trip the main breaker to your apartment to isolate it, otherwise utility workers trying to repair the grid could accidentally be electrocuted. You can do this with any generator, but a gas powered will make a lot of noise and has to be ventilated most likely by being ran outside.
Most breakers are set up w two bars, a 110 volt standard plug cord will only power up one bank at a time, so half your stuff will work. A 240v cord ran into a dryer outlet will power up both bars of the breaker. For a small apartment, you could use a 110v cord and get the bar your refrigerator is wired to powered. Look into this, it's very easy to do with minimal training.
My grandparents had a mule to pull their cart/wagon, and the upkeep on that mule was significant. Feeding and caring for the larger animals is harder and more expensive than caring for your pets.
Mules can serve several purposes, and there are a lot of things you can do yourself regarding caring for one. Research and learn health issues. Especially hoof care. They almost never need shoes, but they do need hoof trimming. Or you could barter with someone who's a farrier.
I survived hurricane Wilma. No electricity or hot water for two weeks. Been there. Keep your gas tanks full, have multiple. Fill only gas 10:49 approved containers. Gas grill tanks, have at least 2-3 filled. I cooked every meal, including morning coffee and dessert on my grill. Be sure your grill has a gas burner to heat water. Stockpile paper products, paper plates,paper towels, tp etc .Start canning, dehydrating and freeze drying anything you can. I had a Swiffer sweeper for hard floors and wet for washing. Bleach is important as is vinegar.
Thanks for the comment Zelda! Good stuff.
I lived in South Florida ( obviously since Wima lol). A good cooler is very important.
Did any looting start around or near you? Or did your community hold together until things went to normal?
Solid advice.
Just had this happen, as a single father with zero help, still recovering from almost dying from Covid, the power Co was supposed to give me a extension, but didn't, so went 3 days without power, needed to come up with $700, but as a prepper, I had a portable solar panel, power station/banks, 60ah of ebike batteries on my ebikes for bugging out that double as power banks as well, have USB light bulbs, & pretty much anything you'd need to make it as comfortable as possible & IT DID JUST THAT, even my son was fine without it, I kept telling him to go to his mom's, but he wanted to rough it out with his 'ol Dad. 😔
I hope times get better, I know they'll get worse most likely first, but I'm fine with that, as long as I see SOME SIGNS OF HOPE
My whole town burned down.
All those preps were worth nothing other than what we could carry and get away in minuets.
No power for one month after for tens of thousands of us.
I'm so terribly sorry that happened.
@@nmr6988
Made me reevaluate how to prep and all prepper theory.
That happened to my sisters neighbors . I did pray for her and fires were close but it didn't burn her town so scary don't give up on prayers but we are still responsible for carrying our own load❤
@@RavenWolfDrum69
And what you can carry is all you will be able to keep.
Sad!!
Driveway solar lights make decent candle light
if they use AA sized batteries, they can be used as a solar charger for the higher capacity rechargeables.
swapping out the original 700mah battery for a higher capacity battery, you'll have a longer lasting pack lantern. in a pinch for light, regular alkaline AA batteries will work.
No Utilities is a big red line in the sand for me. No Utilities means I am not paying taxes.
I recommend getting a Biolite camp stove. You can charge electronics with USB cable’s while you heat your dinner with small sticks.
@tynelson4672....A single burner butane stove might be good, too. Butane is safe for indoors 👍
I’m testing the toilet thing this week, I pour it right in. So far I’ve used less than 5 gallons since Saturday (72 hours) little bit of bleach knocking out any smell, as for gas I use old gas in generator, still working after 12 months old. Two bicycles on hand, and 3 new pair of boots. The pair I have now I’ve kept going since April 2020. Need new laces but still walking in them. And my area still practices wagon train traveling
Just curious why anyone would be using old gas. It's as simple as this.....once a month, when your vehicle needs gas. Pour in the gas from the gas can. Then, take it to the gas station when u top of the vehicles gas tank and refill the portable gas can. Problem solved. You'll forever more have fresh gasoline when u need it.
@@dgunearthed7859 except the stories of old gas is the test in my big out vehicle now, cause SHTF there won’t be any fresh gas. Deal with problems now instead of later when you need it. Gas I have is from November of 2022, engine is still running…
@@tommysimmons5266 cool
Put a gallon or half gallon jug of water in your toilet tank and that saves a ton of water and still flushes good.
Just a warning if your waste pipes are long not using enough water can leave paper and waste in the pipe causing a clog. Great idea for shifting but not everyday practice. Unless you would like to give a plumber some money
i've installed mid roof rain gutter, routed it to IBC tote with large particle filter on inlet and fine on outlet and the routed through the top floor and directly into toilet. this way i have enough water for flushing toilet few months if need to, with possibility to instal another IBC if need to and re-route the water through shower (true, it will be cold water, but still better than nothing ;) ) . i've installed Emergency mid bright cold white/lowt brightness red LED strips throughout the house and tied it to few 100Ah batteries and through auto switch if mains fails. also have shallow well on property, but need to secure the cover for it.
Your waste water plan is great if you're on a septic system. However, if you are on a municipal waste system it will be worthless during an extended power outage and the sewer system starts backing up into your house. I have a shallow aux well also but I worry about it getting contaminated when I also have to dig an out house in my small yard. I also worry about how what the neighbors do will affect my plan.
I also made an outdoor wood fired stove to cook on. I love having that option!
Having an shtf potty will make life better. If you don't have a way to properly dispose of poop, you are going to be miserable.
it is amazing how little it takes for our modern society to go back to the middle ages without proper sanitation, removal of sewage and clean water.
Rocket stoves are easy to make from bricks and they really work great. Just add wood.
I reload everything from 9mm too 7.62x54r too 410 but have solar many if battery’s and whole work shop capable of running on it for weeks ! Charge battery’s and radios ! I have water storage and chickens and rabbits ! Practically have my own hardware store and mechanic shop/ fabrication/ electrical plumbing gas and carpentry stock pile and know how’s ! Multiple out buildings property is fenced barbed wire and wood fences ! I’m in a very small community where we all talk to one another ! I grow own food slaughter own food and have enough can foods and canned and freeze dried to keep me and family good for around a year ! I will eat fresh stuff then freezer then the live ! Of course will be continually reproducing 50 rabbits per month ! I have trainning and skills ! One issue is I’m overweight need to loose 75-100 lbs to be in tip too shape again -I’m working on it bought a treadmill and weight bench I’ve been doing workouts everyday ! Takes time though
It starts with diet and portion control brother! Make sure that is in order first and with some consistency on the workouts the lbs will shed right off! Keep it up!
Cover / wrap coolers with blankets
I do hvac and a lot of people think your furnace will run by itself if the power is out and the gas is on. Your furnace uses high voltage electricity it won’t work. Your water heater might if it’s not electric but if an emp goes I bet your water heater would too
Hey Don. I missed the live but just wanted to mention, satellite phones STILL depend on ground stations to communicate. Even between other satellite phones. You might want to research some more. To the best of my knowledge without the ground switching network, the calls can't go through. A couple of emp's could wipe out the ground stations just like the cell towers. I could be wrong and maybe if someone else on the channel works in the satellite area they might comment.
Washtubs for washing clothes and bathing less water. Vinegar, salt, baking soda. Forging, I use what I know, or I consider from whom I’m getting the information from. Simple basic …a pail for hauling water, food , and moving
Question: what do you think of the new Bryna gun that incapacitates a person for 30 minutes but does not kill them.
Thank you! Always appreciate your advice.
I TRULY appreciate your Q&A format whereby you take a break, answer questions, then return, 100% focused on your topic and audience.
Nothing irritates me more than a host stopping mid-sentence to say something like, “Hi Bushwhacker. No I’m still working on rebuilding that chainsaw.”
Then back to the live viewers,
“where was I, oh yeah, dual fuel generators are a great option because you can…”
Another interruption
“Hi Tammy, thanks for the superchat.”
OK, Here endeth my praise and rant.
God bless you my Brother!
Right now with living in a erd floor apartment, power outages during the summer, like now is scary. The way these are set up leaves no cross ventilation, I would have to some how prop the front door open but barred shut at the same time. Stay safe everyone!
You have made me think about cleaning without a vacuum. I’m going to a dustpan and brush set.
Thank you. Always great info you give us
Question: it was mentioned to have an enclosed trailer for loading up supplies when bugging out. I can foresee road pirates and blockades being put in place very quickly after shtf, especially on the side roads after main roads become blocked. Any advice on safe passage in this situation?
hurricane Charlie, cat 5, 2004 (followed by Florence, Ivan, and Jeanne all in one month) couldnt repair Charlie damage, ie power lines because of the others. Irma, cat 4 2017..moved to GA to never deal with it again...boom, MIchael hit us as a 3. Moved back to southwest Florida in 22...5 months later..hurricane Ian. We have learned from each..you can learn something everyday...but we know we can go quite a while. Hardest part is lack of comms...knowing what is even going on anywhere else, let alone where or how bad it was.
South-coast GA. Brother flooded two years in a row with. Mathew and Irma. He moved further inland.
Great info, thanks and loved the going home series. 🤩🙌
EMP, Grid Down is #1 threat.
Doubt.. Let’s be real here please.
@@MKG71 like. With any catastrophe the power will get knocked out, so if your ready for grid down it pretty much covers everything
@@CIVILDEFENSEBUNKER Yes but I don’t believe from an EMP. That’s what I am getting at.
Research no dig gardening. Does not require fuels. Works well!
Dont know about you but ive got coal oil lamps. And lanterns as back up and candles. But i rely mire on the coal oil lamos. Also have self canned food in the pantry *no refrigeration needed) plus some stire bought foods with 3 yr shelf life and my own water supply (well) abd raising my own livestock and poultry
TH-cam decided to pull up your video this morning. Right at the beginning you giggle about the toilet paper shortage during covid. I honestly have one of your videos from 8 years ago to thank that we had plenty of extra TP I had put away a little at a time over long period. When that went down I was in the store watching the panic, casually buying 5 pairs of pants and 5 new shirts 😂 instead of TP
Excellent point about storage batteries! They ARE the weak link in the use of solar energy. Deep cycle lead acid batteries are a cost-effective way to store self-generated power, but they're only good for a certain number of charge/discharge cycles. They lose storage capacity gradually, but don't count on them for more than 2 years of continuous use. Lithium and other chemistries will hold up longer, but costs are much higher.
And they need children to mine the main component to make those batteries, in Africa. Going to be difficult to count on windsail ships if an EMP or solar flare knocks out the grid, plus the fact that the transformers are made in China, lots of problems with that...
Yes I bought another Marine deep cycle battery yesterday the biggest I could get that matches the ones I already have. I didn't have a car so it was almost 140 bucks but my inverter is much happier now with another one
@@RonaldDaub-xi5jz I have to buy them 3 at a time -- to run a 36 volt trolling motor. If SHTF, then they will come out of the boat and be added to my power bank.
@@rcinsley I have four or five fairly nice LED 10 Watt 12 volt lights I want to keep everything 12 volt but you can't always do that
@@RonaldDaub-xi5jz If I have to move the batteries out of the boat, I'll switch the wiring from series to parallel.
If you have a generator make sure you’ve got it covered with a faraday cage to protect the generator!
Making a Go Bag, soon. Thanks for the advice.
We are mostly prepared but our greatest concern is water- we live in the southwest region of Arizona.😢
Get a water bed. Don’t know about filtering the water.
Antibiotics- wealth of information for each kind and what they treat- go to the patriot nurse. Print out all antibiotics and cures for infections. Laminate pages and Make a book .
Added another deep cycle marine battery to my inverter Bank yesterday I'm happy with that
Thank you!
Dogs pulling carts were a real and very common deal many years ago
I have some Solar-not a lot, just over 500 Watts. But WITH that 500 Watts, I can run my Goal Zero LED Lights, Charge Flashlights, Batteries for cordless tolls, etc. I can even run ALL of my Ham Radio Gear with that small amount of Solar.
If you are using Wind, however, just aim your Windmills at your State Capitol or Washington DC, and you'll have all the 'Wind' you will ever need, and THEN some, LOL!
Thank You ...
You mentioned the use of propane or natural gas in regards to heating one’s home. As if that would still be an option in a situation where there is total power outages. However, if I’m not mistaken, all of the plants that operate the fuel pumps that send all of the gas to the various homes and businesses, operate using electricity. If there’s no electricity, then the pumps don’t work. If the pumps aren’t working, then the fuel in the pipes quickly dry up
Propane tanks and a small heater works for me hear in Georgia. Heat a room.
When father died was gifted grandfather's h and pump from water well on homestead had my well repaired take off cap screw on hand pump, was sure glad we did it!!some idiot wiped out two pow e r poles was w without power for 4 days.
Good food for thought
How to store propane 30 lb or simiar tanks? They shoukd be stored in ventilated area, but specifically? Examples?
Love your videos. You’re a great source of information and I really appreciate you. Maybe you’ve done it in the past and I’ve missed it, but can you do a “fuel” type video? Covering cooking, home, electrical, propane, etc type fuels for home, SHTF, “alternative”, etc. We have a propane tank but electric furnace, we also have generator type hookup from our previous owner, but no generator. Any suggestions? Also on septic and well.
Buy a generator??
Seriously, a small diesel generator isn't that expensive, and you can make biodiesel from old vegetable oil, or even animal fats.
My Bubba Jug keeps drinks cool around 24 hours.
Remember in Catarina...the police were overwhelmed...they very quickly left to evacuate their own.the entire area was devistated. The sports statium was pure hell.and,we,ve seen that when police are working diligently to help n protect,,,,, it was,nt us who they were diligently helping n protecting.most often they close off passage n restrict your comings n goings.in shtf police will best be avoided.
In my area, I would put N gas as the most reliable utility. If I was to install a whole house auto start generator it would be on N Gas. That being said, I'd have at least a 420 lb tank of LP as back up to the N gas. I'd set up the regulator on the LP tank so the gen could still run on it as well.
Horse and Donkey carts will be the future. Your governor may sign into law a ban on fossil fuels like mine did.

Any advice on setting up food safe water barrels in the basement? Thx
You have a lot of good points, but I seriously laughed out loud when you said skateboard! 😂 Bugging out isn't for everyone😏
Hello from Romania, I love your viedous!
I am not too worried about cold weather situations, but my big concern is the power being out for a long period in the summer. I pretty much need AC to maintain life...I have heart issues, and can not breath in the heat. (Without AC, I likely would be out of action within 24 hours. and likely toes-up within 72 hours)
I have an inverter and generator that runs on both gas and propane, and I have enough fuel to run for about 6-7 days if I hunker down in one room. Shortly after that, well, I guess the marauders will get all my supplies and stuff.
Sad!! You need a buddy!
I am worried about hot weather too. I do have a cool basement to hunker down into and remember that fans require far less electricity than A/C units. You mihht also try out hammocks and hamock chairs as they are way cooler as long as you still have the coordination to live with them. Good luck finding a solution.
Loss of all utilities, especially water, is my primary concern.
There are 7 pillars that hold up society... i wish I could remember them off the top of my head, but they are security, utilities, communications... and four others.
Some of the best batteries I have used are eneloops. Available on Amazon, they are more expensive but I've had them last 5 years. Remember to run them down quite low before recharging. Once recharged, they can be stored for up to a year and lose only 30 percent of their charge . I have eneloops I've used for 5 yrs before going bad.
The Emergency Midland Radio is the ER310, a great one that new is around $65 online, everyone should at the very least have 1 of these or similar no matter what
You can turn you car into a food dehydrator if you find yourself needing to preserve your freezer meat in an emergency 👍
tell me how, I learned how to cook bacon on my engine block from Ricky on Trailer park boys but tell me how to dehydrate with my car please
@@Imakebootysclap there are times when I hate technology 🤦🏻♂️ I typed 4 paragraphs with my thumbs and TH-cam gave me an error message, I’m going to give you the shot version sorry. First there are videos on TH-cam that is definitely the best way to learn this because cars are expensive and it can be messy 👍 I also recommend everyone have a couple of rolls of window screen and screen repair tape “your going to want to keep bugs out during SHTF. Quick Tip - your goal when dehydrating is to remove moisture not cook so air flow is as important as keeping the heat low (I have seen people dehydrate meat on their counter top in front of a window with a fan.
Bonus tip: you can sand the paint off a satellite dish 📡 and use it to focus the sun to start fire 🔥 or boil water. Remove the LNB aka the eyes 👀 from the end and that is the focus point for your non reactive pot. Preferably the pot stand and the dish stand are separate so you can adjust the angle as the sun moves through the sky
@@Imakebootysclapthey have found out it gets a lot of gas funds on it when you heat off your engine. Enough toxicity to not do it, besides the horrid taste. I'd get one of those outdoor fire pits they sell at Lowes or Home Depot
How? If you have a wood stove, you can do that too, by setting it next to the wood stove.
@@annsaunders5768 I recommend looking up some videos on TH-cam that’s where I learned the car and the countertop tricks. I do recommend trying it while we live in this world of abundance. Dry air is more important than heat - you’re trying to dehydrate not cook (Similar to smoking). Also different types of meat require different temperatures to make safe when certain pathogens exist (example salt water fish is safer than fresh water fish) I’m still in the learning process and don’t have a quality reference for this process. My original comment was to present some alternatives that people may not think of if the power goes out and they are standing there with a months worth of food that will otherwise spoil 👍
If you have a lot of preps but only plan to take as much as you carry on your back, you're sending an open invitation for the looters to come and take all the preps that you leave behind.
Is SD Bullion & Scottsdale Mint the same company? Thank you
What solar well pump do you recommend? I am researching this and sooo overwhelmed with all the info out there. No idea what I'm doing when it comes to solar or well pumps. Thanks!
I do not believe they will make it through. I'm trying!!!!
The thing about SAT phones is the monthly bill, about $100/mos, plus anyone you want to talk to has to be willing to pay $100/mos for something for a possible 'emergency'. IDK anybody willing to do that. Some people I know don't want to pay for a bottle of water to put away for a possible emergency. Besides, there isn't anyone I need to talk to for that amount a month. But that's just me.
Oregon just past a law where you have to register your garden, farm animals, and water wells. They also are outlawing rain water collection.
Angry!!
Oregon is a lost cause- move! Too progressive.

Reg is tration leads to ta xes, con fish cation and seize ur es.
Here is something else I would recommend stocking up on. Cotton and denim fabrics. Go to thrifts stores and get shirts, sweaters, jeans, etc for really cheap, regardless as to what color or how much. When SHTF and EMP, you will have to repair your own cloths. Also, pay attention to where there is any used tires lying around. Just as long as the tires are not steel or wire belted, or if the outer layer of rubber is held together with string, you can make soles for shoes when your shoes wear out. Also stock up on basic home hardware like pvc pipe, glue, nails, screws, some extra lumber, paint, water sealer, etc. bleach is way tooooo valuable for water purification.
That's a good idea about the tyres.
Never even occurred to me, despite the fact I have been quite obsessed about replacing/repairing footwear.
Cheers, buddy.
Utilities no problem im solar wind and have back (hyro" un hooked hyro) water no problem got a well fog collector and a big dehumidifier and a small creek through my yard.
re: your tooth extraction pain. There is a situation called a "dry socket" that happens somewhat often with dental extractions. Worst pain I have ever experienced.
Worst pain... Ann... fascinating. So the worst pain you've had has been dental? Not something else?

I'm one of those "little old ladies". Recent widow. I do pay with a card not digging out coins. But there are many scraping by on social security. There are enough impatient younger people who rush us, make snide remarks or even push us. Sometimes in the parking lot, stealing bags before we can load them. I hope to keep subscribed, but could you please encourage patience vs complaining about wanting on elderly? you've said you're a Christian. arthritis slows us down. thank you 😀
I did well in terms of the Covid debacle of 20/21. And what made the difference was early awareness, early stocking up and then immediate disengagement with large population centres. It was good to be able to step away, though this will not always be possible.
If you’re going to use ammo for barter,be sure you keep YOUR big #’s elsewhere.
They say don't barter anything like 223 556 etc. Just #8 12g maybe 9
I don't recommend bartering defensive items outside of your most trusted circle of friends. It can be too easily used against you....

I use my turkey fryer burner to fry deer sausage outside because my wife doesn’t like the way it smells in the house.
I use battery operated tools. Should I put my batteries or my battery-operated tools in my faraday cage?
It could be expensive to get two of everything, but have at least some of your batteries and lithium batteries in a faraday cage for sure.
Or my tools?
@@cyndis2031
The tools will not require protection if they are turned off and disconnected from a power supply at the time of the emp.
The batteries will need protecting if they are holding a charge, but if discharged, ready for charging, then no they will not need protecting either.
@@cyndis2031
Tools will not require protection if they are not connected to a power supply at the time of an EMP.
Because there is NO power running through them.
Batteries that have been discharged prior to the event also will not need protecting.
Batteries holding a charge,vor being charged will need protection.
Generators in operation will need protection, but inoperable generators will not.
Solar panels producing electricity will, but any not in use will not.
I heard that silver is also good for fighting werewolves.
Propane generators are not as efficient as they claim to be you might be better off running them for an hour a day we used 400 gallons in one week with a 17 KW generac
That's right those batteries start around 6000 to 10000 Dollars. Not cheap who can afford that.🙏🙏🙏🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🌍🌎⌛⏳⚒️🛠️
PLS allow closed captioning? I have hearing issues and sometimes difficult to understand what you are saying. Many Thanks.
I bought 5 garbage cans for $100.
(2) black cans for “Humanure” (there are many books and videos on this topic 👍) I bought some cedar shavings to help with odor if I’m required to keep it indoors during an ☢️ event that requires 15+ days indoors. Drill holes in the bottom of one can and place it inside the second can. Throw some cedar shavings in the bottom then periodically on top of your 💩 to keep the odors under control. Your goal is to prevent urine from entering this container but it’s not going to harm the process just add liquid which will add to odors (this won’t be a big deal when you transfer it to the yard (dig a 4-6” hole 🕳️ and set the can with the holes into it. The other can will have liquid and cedar this is obviously unhealthy to handle so add some cedar and dump it into the other can, then let sit open in the the sun till the first can is 3/4 full at which point you will just let it sit in the sun for a year and start filling the second one.
(3) Blue cans or 2 blue and 1 more black, for water catchment (buy a roll of window screen, your goal is to keep mosquitoes 🦟 out of your rain water. Drill holes in the lid of the cans and place upside down on the can (be sure to secure them from blowing off) then use the screen to keep mosquitos out and let the water in. You can add a spigot 🚰 a few inches off the bottom of the can and even add a hose which will provide low to moderate water pressure. You could also use a black can if you want to use it as a solar water warmer 🚿“just don’t confuse it with your”Humanure” can 😂 I’m going to try and use some screen repair tape in place of the window screen but I need to do some research on the adhesive considering this will likely be drinking water at some point.
5 garage cans (PETE, HDPE, LDPE or PP) $100 “please do your own research on safe plastics for your water bins” I prefer this method because I don’t want an overly complicated permanent rain catchment system but I do want a cheap system that I can deploy in an emergency.
1 bags Cedar pet bedding $12
3 brass water spigots 🚰 $45
1 role window screen & screen repair tape $ 22 (in a grid down situation your going to want the ability to repair screens)
Total: $180
Stack them all together place items inside and stack in closet for “Hurricane, Solar Mass Ejection or WW 🍆 📏 Contest 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Also solar will work with old dead batteries 🪫 when the sun is out as long as you can trick the controller into seeing the minimum voltage 👍 Jumper cables and a working 12 volt battery 🔋 works great. That said eventually we will be a 3rd world country if industry fails to ever return.

I hear you. I'll make it, but I could sure use a partner.
I try to buy one or two coins a month. (I’m pretty poor). I went to Scottsdale like you suggested to buy a couple of coins. I shouldn’t need to jump through hoops just to take a look at the coins with their prices. I’ll stick with where I’ve been getting them from.
One thing that i have ran into the past two months. Im on hydromorphone for my back and arthritis, the problem ive had recently is a shortage/none available. Last month i was only able to get 60/90, this month i only got 40/90. Not sure what to do, the pain is to the point im not able to function, i start throwing up, and have passed out from the pain a couple times. What ever i get to use, is gonna need to be strong. On good days im able to do minimum chores, but God help me the next day.
Operation to help? If it's that bad is the only time I would try that.

You could try physical therapy they do some back exercises. No offense but with pharma they will having you go more and more meds usually till addiction. Like all things they are liable to run out of meds at some point. Try to strengthen your core this will help your back.
@tomtee4442 PT don't help, I have seven disks in lower back that are blown out, leaking, and slipping. I have degenerative disc disease. Between the arthritis in back and hips along with the DDD there are nerves pinched. No amount of therapy will help. The surgeon said I'm not a good candidate for surgery. I'm not too worried about getting addicted to the hydromorphone, I've been on it for quite some time and if I have good days I don't take any. Besides if the pills help manage the fkn pain if I do ever get addicted 🤗 so be it, at 62 I'm good with it.
Try and contact TWC I think the tw is correct but they are also a med kit company
It's good to have several dollar😢 store eye glasses in many strengths .
Golbacks are becoming more popular. Get your legislators to pass the sound money act!
@64? Great Idea but doubt that it will happen.More paper money is being printed everyday and no ( if any) precious metals to back up paper currency. You ever read "The Creature From Jekyll island"? Will teach You a lot of unpleasant things about the FEDERAL RESERVE.
You cant eat gold buy land
You can't hide or move land so have some gold
Sadly, many EV drivers are not owners; they lease. They pay a few thousand down, and a fee hundred a month for 5 years. And then when the lease is up,they do it again.😢
As I write this gold is $2,350.00. Something is afoot.
