sorry for robbys loss
Prayers for Robby and his family.
I'm so sorry to hear about Robby's loss of his mother. May she always rest in peace.
I’m so sorry for your loss. The loss of a Parent is one of the biggest events in your life. You and your family are in my prayers. May God bless and watch over you and your loved ones. 8:30
Expiration dates are more the result of marketing and corporate greed than actually no longer being edible.
That’s more of them say “best by:” and not expired by. And yes I don’t follow that.
I gave up everything and starting van live i hope one day i can buy land but im tired of paying thousands just to rent a one bedroom apartment
Sounds like a smart decision for you, at this time. Hopefully you can find your place in the future, but rent is a killer.
My condolences to Robbie and his family during this most difficult time. 😢😞
Have a way to hook a generator to your well pump so that once a day you can pump water from a deep well. A hand pump will work gine on a shallow well
Sadly, you must protect from those who take, whether by crowbar, weapon or committee.
Robby Wheaton, I'm sorry to hear of your loss. My condolences for the family & your friends on behalf of your Mother.
You’re like a walking encyclopedia! Love watching your channel, we’re feeling bad for Robbie tonight. Prayers for the family 😊
Hope and prayers for Robby my condolences too
A generator is missing from my preps. If I had to pick something(s) to get, it would be a dual fuel (gasoline-propane) generator and 4 more propane tanks. Maybe another month’s worth of canned and dried foods.
I'm visiting my brothers this summer, but when I get home I'm doubling down on storing water.
I keep a get home bag in my truck. It’s over stuffed with “too much” stuff. I also keep items like an IFAC, shovel, axe, rope, etc. plan is to discard items I would not need and add items I would need depending on the situation, how far I’m going, availability of water, and threats. If we are going a further distance, we will add my wife’s get home bag as well. Would have enough supplies, food, and water for a couple weeks (more of less) of inconvenienced camping if needed. Also have items to boil, filter, chemically treat water and fish, trap, hunt, and forage edible vegetation. I do need to get more knowledgeable so we can identify and eat more than blackberries and dandelions lol
i dont get the joke. why was that funny? about the dandelions
Asian markets usually have 8-10 different kinds of rice in 20# bags. Each has a different flavor. Each 20# sack may cost the same as three or four single # supermarket bags.
what is the best flavor for survival, say, if i could only afford one bag. which flavor has the most vitamins, the most electrolytes, and the longest shelflife? thanks. is it packed in 20 pound bags because that is best for survival, or should i buy more than one bag or just half of it?
I set up nearly identical GHB for 4 ppl, 3 days in every vehicle.
I understand those that advocate light weight. IMO, I can always sort and dump. Can’t depend on remembering to update Spring,summer,fall ,winter setups.
I don't think you've ever mentioned the high priority of a good pair of hiking boots. Warm enough to wear year round, with extra pairs of socks.
if they were a high priority he would have mentioned it. he is an expert who knows what we need. dont be silly and spend part of your 1000 dollars on something no one really needs. and yikes! who doesn't already have a few pairs of socks.
Maybe you have to rely on beans and rice only so what you do and don't break the bank: SPICES! ever had rice and bean pudding with vanilla and cinnamon?Curried rice and beans,rice and beans sweet and sour,rice and beans with chili con carne spices? Check out how Asians make desserts with beans and or rice .SPICE UP YOUR PREP ❤❤
Bless his heart. I’m so sorry for him. I hope his family and him will find peace.
Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that Robbie's mom died. Even if you know it's coming, it's really hard to use your mom.
Since you mentioned the Going Home series and also the futility of trying to prepare for an EMP, that reminded me of another book, 'Decline and Decay' by A. American and Alan Kay. If you think you're ready, read that book. You're NOT ready.
In a real situation a can of expired chilli may save a life. If the can isn't bulged it's edible.
fascinating. how can i use a can of chilli as, say, a tourniquet or breathing device, or to sanitize water? i need to know more about how chilli can be life saving. can you throw a can of chilli to a drowning person? how does that help? super interesting.
why just chili? what makes it special that it can be used if say, an expired can of corn cannot? fascinating information.
Robby, my condolences. I’m sorry for your loss brother.
I gave up on prepping. No matter how much I try to get ahead the cost of things is just too much. Especially on one buget.
I feel you man, I’ve got a decent bit of capabilities, probably overextended into firearms, but emergency food and solar is getting pricey. I’m looking at what I have left to do and 100gal water barrels, an additional 3 months of food, and setting up solar and battery backups are all such massive expenses. I’ve just started a garden for now and might get a rain collection system and call it there for now.
I lost a good portion of food when I started preparing. If it wasn't in a can or jar it didn't make it. I have some water, camp stuff and 2 weapons. No solar power stations or generators.
Never give up, a few times spending a few hundred through the years and 10$ here or there you'd be shocked what you can get to
I’m 23 working a minimum wage job and yeah it’s almost impossible, I’ve got a few guns and some food but other than that it takes months to save up to buy anything.
Don’t prep like they do. Just buy a little bit extra each time u go to the store. A can here and there really adds up quick. We just found a deal on beans so I bought 90#, next time I’ll scrounge something else. We found ham for .49 cents a pound so I bought 150 pounds and canned it up. Don’t worry about what these guys are doing, hoe your own row!❤❤❤
Berkey's aluminum problem is only with their flouride filters. The black carbon filters have no aluminum. But Berkey still declines to have their gear tested by any standards organization.
We gotta have water to survive! Period! And a way collect it, store it, AND filter it, is a great asset!
period? i think you need more than water to survive, dont you. i dont know, i am just asking . like in the video, doesnt a rambo knife help somehow. come to think of it. how does that knife help, say, if you are not being chased by the sheriff?
🙏🙏 so sorry for the loss of Robbys mom..ty for sharing. Deepest sympathies to all..
Sending Prayers for Robby’s family sorry for their loss
Thought and prayers for Robby and his family. 😢
2000 gal Water, 5x 100lb bags of rice, 100lbs of homemade jerky, 10lbs of multi vitamins, salt and pepper to taste. This is just food of course.
Great insight, For $1000 budget, You’re definitely gonna have to get creative. Once your food, water & medicine needs are met, you can always get gear from the military surplus store that is used & cheap. A lot of their items are tried and true. Then i’d get a Mossberg Maverick 88 shotgun. You can still get some 12 gauge shotgun shells both defensive and target for relatively cheap at Walmart. If you choose to go getting a pistol versus a shotgun for your only means of protection, then, believe it or not, a lot of gun stores have decent used pistols for sale. A lot of people sold back to the stores, their guns that they purchased during the pandemic (because of inflation, etc.).
I use AlexaPure. I changed my filter every 6 months for one person = to 200 gallons. I use 2 small pots of water for coffee twice daily. One in the morning, one in the late afternoon. Use raw cane sugar or honey and have canned milk when needed. Cindy
You know you can clean the black solid filters several times.
Lehmans has a system to get water out of your well
One of my favorite channels! I'm always looking for new ideas. Thanks
Look my wife and I have been preparing more than we did before 2016. We have not taken a vacation. We decided we going camping up north in Michigan for a week. What’s your thoughts??
Go to Wisconsin instead, Outagamie County is a great area
Michigan is going broke. My aunt has a job where they combine health places like doctors and even hospitals into multi-county things. Maybe Detroit still has money and Ann Arbor where she lives but a lot of the state is broke
if you go camping in michigan for a week that will count as a vacation. you already know you can't afford that. spend the money on vital prepping stuff. you can't be too prepared you know. just saying.
eating pork and beans that were best by 2015. they are still tasty 😋
Yes! Canned foods are usually good for 25 years. I try to buy premium brands for taste and for quality of production.
if they are tasty now, just think about how mouth watering they would have been if you ate them by their best by date. i prefer to eat by best by date, but that is just me. why wait untill they start to taste off. i dont get how that helps you survive.
Condolences to Robby and family.
I have life straws : and a hand punp portable water filtering system
i gotta know right now!! what is a hand punp?
Prayers for Robby and his family. May his mom now rest gently in God's arms.
So sorry Robbie. I lost my Mom too many years ago and I still miss her every day.
This is also a good exercise for if shtf happens while your on vacation some where
important to all you tubers our there: never take advice from a commenter who can't spell you're. who knows what other garbage they are spitting out?
@@DrSchor”all you tubers our there”
Hello! Curious about the “Going Home” book(s) you spoke about. Please provide specifics! Thank you for all you do!
Prayers 🙏 to Robby and Family.
Hi Sootch. Thanks very much for the ideas regarding my question on multiple vehicles/people and get home bags. Your videos are great for passing the time while dog walking. Don't usually have to see, just listen.
🙏 Praying for Robbie and his family!
Condolences to Robby and his family.
I'm praying for him. Know what he's going through.
Fun concept and great discussion!
I hate to tell you that you wont have a week or even a day it will happen suddenly without warning when you least expect it
arent hurricanes forecasted out a week ahead? can you describe a scenario where hurricane will Suprise us
Great video. Nice to hear Sarah mac. Thanks
Shelf stable food, water or purification, fuel.
Prayers for Robby and his family to be comforted in loss of his mom. Praying she knew Jesus
The Amish are professional preppers and could survive well for long term.
i thought they were professional farmers. how do they earn a living by prepping?
Farmers mean They sell goods and some are carpenters. @@DrSchor
Yes, I do see whats going on around the world
A sweat suit comes in handy for cold regions. It reflects your body heat back at you rather that it disappate into the atmosphere.
can you post the link to where i can buy a sweat suit made of space blankets?
@DrSchor It's not space blankets, it is a silver heat reflexive suit though. Walmart has them. They work excellent. I used them when a winter storm knocked electricity out for 4 days, when the temp was 10 degrees F.
If you have a well, is it wise to get a inverter to hook up to your vehicle to get water out of the of the well
why not use your gas generator to operate the pump. why does it have to be an inverter. is it something about 12 vs 120 volts. did you ever notice 120 is exactly 10 times 12? makes you think doesnt it.
Berkey has aluminum in their filters that gets in the water. The levels are way beyond safe.
No potable consumable water is a death sentence. Dehydration / hypovolemic shock is way beyond safe. Wouldn’t want unnecessary metal contamination however sometimes need to weigh pro vs con.
Sweet. Now I just need $1000
For this challenge I'll change dollars to PLN for obvious reasons of living in Poland:
1) Ferro rod - cheap, reliable and durable source of fire starting
2) If I'm planning to buy bottled water, then water for 100-150 PLN, Lifestraw here costs around this margin of 100-150
3) Food for 300 PLN, some would be dry goods, some canned
4) Gram of medical PREVENTION would be more important than kilogram of medical intervention, however iodine and charcoal would do fine in both cases (medical and hygiene for at most 100 PLN)
5) 20l of gasoline in a jerry can and car to the full for around 130-140 PLN + whatever would be needed to fill the car
6) 12V/230V converter to charge crucial devices from the car itself costs 100-200 PLN - a massive saving in comparison to full-size not pathetic quality power generator costing at least 700 PLN
Whatever is left goes to toilet paper and maybe flashlight with corresponding batteries. I don't mention stuff like backpack, clothing and others due to having them.
PS Or simply because something may be too expensive for such a budget (such as firearms and ammo).
Please tell Robbie we are thinking of him
Prayers for Robbie
If you know it's 1 week till hell use those credit cards lol.
people tell me i have a good sense of humor but i don;t get the joke. please explain
@@DrSchorpeople need to stop telling you that
Sorry for Robbie's Mom passing.
Once you learn the Pretro-for-dollar “U.S. Saudi deal” never existed and that the U.S Treasury is buying back bonds left and right at the moment with stored gold. Yes we aren’t backed by gold but why would the U.S. not hold gold? Prepare for the worst pray for the best. Focus on your own retirement, become good independent as best as you can, learn your neighbors and trade with them talk with them, get involved with your communities and see how many like minded individuals are within them and how y’all can better prepare the entire town/neighborhood. Yes, L.A. isn’t going to be able to much with this but you can still get several folks around you involved if you can built true trust and comradery.
Thank you❤
We love you Robby. Your mom made a good man.
We wish we had 1000.00 to shop with.
Rope and old timer water bucket.
Sorry to hear about Robbie's mother prays Sir. I never let my vehicle get below half full. To me when I see the gauge get to half I considerate it empty.
Praying for Robby and his family
Always an interesting though experiment to consider what you would do if you found out you were going to have to shelter in place without power in your home for as long as possible and had one chance to shop with the cash you have in your home.
If there are things you would NEED to get, then those are places that you need to prep. If you could not need to go, the things you would get are likely places where you could prep deeper.
If you would just "insulate" your preps with a deeper pile of beans and bullets - then you are likely in a good place already - since you are just maximizing duration at that point.
I know for my case, the things I would get would be things that I would only use in a apoc (and so don't get rotated will pre-apoc) - like powdered milk and canned meats. I have some of those, but it is a chore to rotate through them, since I prefer fresh and, like SP said, topping off on gas and things like that.
Also, as I consider it today, there is a gap in clothing between my kids today and when they are grown. When I get them new shoes I usually grab the pair that fits and the next 2-3 sizes up as well so that they can just wear them out as them move up, but I would likely grab an extra pair or two of boots for myself and shoes up to adult sizes for the kids. Most everything else, they could just live in oversized clothes. So, a dozen or more pairs of shoes would certainly take a part of my $1K.
what is the difference between a thought experiment and a though experiment. is a though experiment more thorough? there is so much i need to know.
If you don't know anything about fishing, hunting, or radio it's pointless to have it.
please finish your sentence. you are scaring me. pointless to have what, exactly? please answer today.
@@DrSchor lmao my bad I was referring to having the gear for said activities but not practicing them makes it pointless.
My condolences 🙏
Condolences 😢 to Robby
The UN standard rehydration mix, recipe only, needs 4 common cheap ingredients. It is given to dysentery and dehydration patients. Works jusr as well as all the fancy brand name electrolytes, but $5 worth will last a family of four for a month. Adding flavoring makes it palateable.
what is the recipe? sound important.
Sorry to here that
I always miss this podcast. Bummer
If I had $1,000 to play with just to buy the last minute things, cuz that was all I was going to be able to have besides what I already have.... I would buy a few more bags of flour and I would buy more canned meat. The flour that I buy at the store, I would make ships biscuits or tac with. They are super dry and concrete hard and have a super long expiration date. I would also buy canned meat like spam or canned ham for example. I would also buy some medicines like advil, Ibuprofen and Tylenol add Imodium AD period about I would focus on those items....
What's your poop is the fan homeowners insurance is the last thing that I'm going to concern myself with them this is due to if this is concerning a war situation or an Insurgent or what have you that its internal. At that point I would have my vehicle prepped with all that's needed in case of any emergency that was so severe you only had minutes to move and get out
interesting. what are all, and i mean all, the things you need in your vehicle?
@@DrSchor I've experienced 3 emergencys so far. 2- too close for comfort floods and a giant chemical spill.
From wool blankets, fire blankets, pillows, all gear needed for cooking and camping in the trunk of the car. Shovels /rakes - collapsible. All fishing gear. Protection...etc....etc. never know what comes our way and how fast it comes
Hi-Points are good rugged firearms with great warranty, going with their 9mm pistol and carbine you are looking at between $300.00 to $400.00 for a nice home security setup and then only having to worry about one caliber of ammo
why buy ammo you have to worry about instead of a brand name?
@DrSchor did you watch through the video, it is how best to spend $1000 on preps you don't now have, so my post is for the price of a name brand firearm even a Taurus you're looking at $300, now you have to buy ammo, with my suggestion you get pistol and carbine for the price of one, still need ammo, hope that explains
Condolences.
I like this 1k game.
If there was no budget what store would you pick for a 1hr speed run to grab what you think would be important if there were only a few hours till midnight
I never go there maybe once a year but Walmart if I was alone in the store
What's a good axe for splitting wood that will last?
Splitting maul usually works better at splitting 🪵 logs.
@@paemtff9412 Thanks. It sucks having to learn everything as an adult.
@joshua511 An Eastwing axe is the best, in my opinion, as far as the actual axe.
Bleach via electrolyses aka using saltwater and electricity to make bleach. Worthwhile knowledge. 😉
very important. how do i make bleach from saltwater. do you mean seawater only, or can it be any water you have shaken some salt into? i know that salt has Clorine in it (nacl) and bleach is made of chlorine but i dont know how to turn table salt into bleach. what if the electricity is off, which it will be? thanks. i gots to know. or where is the youtube video about that. can you make a youtube video about it. thanks!

There are already a decent number of videos here on TH-cam on the subject. If you search “How to make bleach from saltwater” or something like that, they should come up for you. I bought a small device off Amazon that is usb hence should work without too much drain on a solar generator, battery bank, etc
Best wishes to Robby.
$300 on a cheap shotty. The rest split between ammo and meth.

What if you have a newer car, I heard if there is a EW that cars won’t work, newer cars!🚘
If there is a significanf EMP event, the only car/truck that will still be sure to work, is an old DEISEL engine, because they simply had no electronics to burn out. Note that does not apply to most diesel engines since maybe 1965. And it will have to be either a stick shift, to push start, or have an alternate manual starter.
@@lyfandeth ….. Thank you, so helpful! I meant to have said EMP!!!
I take meds for diabetes. When that's runs out I'm screwed. Luckily I don't take shots I take pills. Most of the storeable foods are high in salt.
why not just store the foods that are not high in salt?
