E-Mail 'Economics & Investing For Preppers' To A Friend

1. Has anyone seen any estimates as to how many cubic feet or gallons of water supposedly drained into the Mississippi River?

2. You may want to add a few sets of guitar strings for future trade or just to maintain the ability to make music. They are expendables and may never be made again after the a collapse. This goes for all musical instruments that utilize strings, reeds, rosin etc. I cannot imagine a world where there is only percussion and primitive wind instruments, that would surely be a sign of a regressive society.

   1. “I cannot imagine a world…”

      That’s exactly why we’ll be moving our piano to the homestead. When I find hymnals for $1.00, we snatch them up.

      Also, when our giant, old live oaks succumbed to Oak Wilt, we used the trunks to make a large campfire ring. Girl Scout and Boy Scout song books have many fun songs that can be taught to all ages.

      It’s obvious many Preppers have some solar, so I would suggest maintaining a music library of a variety of CD’s to be played periodically, everything from rock and roll oldies, the warhorses of old classical music, to Americana.

      Music, real music, feeds the soul. Over the years , dozens and dozens of people have told me, “they don’t sing.” Gaining pleasure from music can raise morale and provide comfort.

   2. Not a half bad idea. One thing I’ve done is to save old CD’s and a boom box along with old phones and Ipods to use as music players. My daughter plays guitar so I’ll be following your suggestion and buying a few sets of spare strings.

3. you keep posting the kit prices from Palmetto but I don’t find them. Please post the link
   for the exact item you are talking about. I did not find any 99 dollar complete lowers
   Thanks

   1. Unfortunately, that sale just ended. Sorry! But they often have similar sales on complete AR uppers and lowers.

      For instance, they just started a special on AR pistol uppers and lowers.

   2. I recently purchased 10 AR-15 lowers for $129 each… then a few months later purchased the uppers for about $180 each from PSA… $309 for an AR-15 is not bad… neither is $3090 for ten.

      Keep your powder dry…

4. I am Doubling Down on my prepping. The yield curve is still inverted, signalling a recession. The Federal government is still spending like crazy, and no one in the government is arguing for fiscal restraint. Why? Because they all worry that a recession is coming, and spending makes the Gross Domestic Product number higher. Not really higher, but the ‘official’ number is higher. GDP for 2018 was a fantastic 5%, but Federal debt went up 6%. That means real growth was not 5%, but MINUS 1%. Oops. Wonder why that was not in the news.
   There is MORE flooding in the Midwest. Some crops will be affected, raising food prices. Stock up now.

5. Update- The President and congress announced a budget deal today which ends the possibility of a government shutdown this fall, and continues spending until July 2021, after the Presidential elections. The agreement raises spending caps by $320 Billion and suspends the debt ceiling. Most programs will get 4% increases. It also allows the President to shift funds around, causing Sen. Leahy of VT to announce he would oppose it because the President could use funds to build a border wall. Leahy later announced that he would vote for the deal. This seems to make Trump’s re-election much easier depending of course upon the impact of any potential recession. I am sure that the President will take other measures to prevent or lessen the severity of any recession.

6. Swedes are sheep being lead to the slaughter and future muggings. They should be advised them to look like predators, to carry weapons instead looking of looking weak, and ‘look poor”. No, I will not return my Swedish Mauser set up for 600 meters back to Sweden. Are you Swedish?(stupooid?)

   Swedes are also being lead to the slaughter, into Max Keiser’s Neo-fedualism or gulag, with a chip in the hand. Stolen from Survivalblog.com is an article that some Swedes are now receiving a chip in the hand to aid in financial transactions. How Swede it is… helt dumbt!

7. Stolen from Bill Holter’s blog, jsmindset.com, where he states that he believes Egon is correct about Deutsche Bank, and the implosion in motion. Here is Egon’s excellent interview. Don’t miss it, it will be the biggest news ever!
