Every emergency situation happens when you least expect it.
Imagine you’re coming back from work after a long Friday
You are thinking about how you’re going to spend the weekend with your family
When bam! You hear a heavy noise and your car begins to shake. Flat tire.
And just your luck, it’s pouring rain outside. Are you ready for this kind of situation?
Having a well-stocked car can be a real lifesaver when emergencies arise.
I want to give you the 7 essentials that every car should have to handle unexpected situations like a champ.
1) Spare tire, jack, and lug wrench
A flat tire can happen at any time. And trust me, you don’t want to be caught without what you need to repair it.
Make sure you have a spare tire, a jack, and a lug wrench in your car at any time.
2) Jumper cables
Dead batteries are a common concern. Sometimes it’s just a matter of giving your car a little jumpstart.
Having a good set of jumper cables in your trunk will ensure you can return to the road quickly.
3) First-aid kit
A solid first-aid kit will assist you with minor injuries for yourself and your loved ones.
4) Flashlight and batteries
Whether it’s a nighttime flat tire or a quick look under the hood, having a reliable flashlight with additional batteries will make everything easier during unexpected situations.
5) Emergency blankets and warm clothing
If you spend the night in your car, emergency blankets are essential for avoiding hypothermia. Especially in cold weather.
Everyone should have a few lightweight blankets in their cars.
6) Non-perishable food and water
Keep some non-perishable snacks and water in your car to ensure you will remain safe in case you’re stranded for an extended period.
Have you ever considered having fun with prepping?
Well you can check out my survival prepping TikTok videos here, or just read below!
Survival prepping is not something that is discussed often in this world, but it is starting to get noticed more and more on a daily basis, and that is a fact!
Especially since we are constantly thinking about survival.
What is the point of survival, however, if we are not enjoying our lives?
This might sound too philosophical, but it is a simple thought that not enough people talk about.
I want to share with you a simple way to make prepping easier, and perhaps even relaxing.
First, let’s talk about why you would even need to make prepping fun.
It is simple, really.
We want to survive not just for a day, not for a few weeks, but for years ahead.
It is simply not sustainable to constantly take everything so seriously.
We need to be able to do this for a long time.
A very simple way to do that is by incorporating family activities into your prepping routine.
That makes the process more enjoyable for everyone, and also ensures that everyone in your household is prepared for whatever may come.
For example, you make a game for your children out of prepping.
Create hypothetical survival scenarios where the whole family has to help to survive.
We actually did this last week at my house.
We pretended the water was contaminated and we had to find alternative drinking sources.
And my children did some research online and even found a cool way to purify water.
I hadn’t ever seen them more excited to help with anything prepping-related!
Why don’t you also try it?
Another way to make prepping a family activity is to take a trip to a wilderness survival training course.
These courses teach you and your family valuable skills such as building a shelter, finding food and water, and starting a fire.
Prepping doesn’t just have to be about stocking up and making plans.
By incorporating fun activities into your prepping routine, you can make sure that your whole family is prepared, while also having a good time.
So don’t be afraid to think outside the box and make prepping a family activity.
Try to have your whole family involved in the prepping process.
5 Different Ways To Prep On A Budget
A lot of people have told me that they would prep, but they just can’t afford it.
And to some degree, they have a point.
Prepping might be costly, even if it protects you from spending resources in the future.
For example, if you insulate your house or install solar panels, you will be wasting less energy for years.
But you would still have to put the initial payment down.
If you can’t afford to do that, does that mean that you can’t do anything?
Well, not exactly.
Another resource that a lot of people neglect is time.
If you are willing to put some time into preparing for survival, you don’t need to make any huge investments upfront.
I have gathered different 5 ways you can use to stay safe even if you can’t afford to make large investments.
Learn to make prepping gear yourself.
Back in the day, this is how our grandparents would prep.
They simply couldn’t shop for most things back then.
If you have the time, you can make your own soap, candles, and even fire paste!
It might seem too hard if you haven’t done this before, but you will also be gaining valuable skills that could come in handy in survival situations.
Identify what you already have on hand.
Most people already own basic items like flashlights, batteries, and first aid kits.
Make a list of what you already have, and then focus on slowly adding the items you still need.
Shop in bulk.
Many prepping items can be purchased in bulk for cheaper.
If you find the places that sell them, you will be saving yourself a lot of time and resources.
Look for used items.
You can find many prepping items, such as camping gear, at a fraction of what you would normally pay.
Look out for flea markets, thrift stores, and online marketplaces like Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace for deals on prepping gear.
Prefer multi-purpose items.
Instead of buying a separate tool for every task, look for items that can be used for multiple purposes.
For example, a good quality folding knife can be used for cutting rope, opening cans, and even as a makeshift screwdriver.
But every time you look inside that fridge, you’re letting out precious cold air.
Keep it shut, and your food will stay safe for up to 4 hours in the fridge and 48 hours in the freezer, provided you don’t go peeking!
If this time has passed already, and you want to test if your food is still safe to eat, follow these instructions.
And the same goes for your exterior doors.
Keep your doors and windows shut to maintain your house’s current temperature as much as possible. This is especially crucial in extreme weather conditions.
There could be a time when everything is lost overnight.
I don’t know when that is, but I can tell you this,
I will be ready for it.
So let’s rediscover the ancient wisdom of collecting rainwater.
It’s a practice as old as civilization itself.
Rainwater is soft, has no ground minerals, and is excellent for plants, laundry, and even personal use with proper treatment.
Let’s talk about how to harvest it the right way.
Your roof is your primary tool.
A clean roof with no obstructions ensures a good flow of rainwater into your collection system.
Regularly inspect for debris, leaves, or anything that might contaminate the water.
Gutters and Downspouts
These are the conduits that channel water from your roof to your storage. Ensure they are clean and equipped with mesh guards to keep out leaves and twigs.
First Flush Diverter
This device diverts the first flow of rainwater, which carries most of the dirt and debris from the roof, away from your storage tank.
Ensuring cleaner water collection.
However, I don’t think it’s necessary.
See why.
Storage Tanks.
This is where your harvested rainwater will be stored. From barrels to large tanks, your storage can be as simple or sophisticated as your needs and space allow.
Ensure it’s properly covered to prevent contamination and evaporation.
Using Your Harvested Rainwater
Collected rainwater can be used for gardening, flushing toilets, and, with the right filtration and purification systems, even for drinking.
Remember, safety first. If you plan to use rainwater for personal consumption, ensure it’s properly filtered and disinfected to take out any pathogens or pollutants.
And we also have to consider the local laws and regulations.
It might sound surprising, but some areas have regulations on rainwater harvesting.
See if rainwater harvesting is illegal in your state.
We have to remain responsible and respectful of our shared resources.
Every drop counts, brother. In times of need, the water you’ve collected can be a lifeline.
But even in abundance, it’s a step toward sustainable living.
Reducing our reliance on treated water and decreasing our environmental footprint.
So that’s me, the big dude sitting across from Tucker Carlson himself! Love that guy!
But enough about me, let’s get to the reason why you’re reading this article in the first place.
I’m sure you’ve seen ‘em.
You might have even referred to yourself as a “prepper” at one point.
This group of people tries to prepare for emergencies.
They stock up on essentials, grow their own food, and meticulously plan for a myriad of scenarios.
But amidst this well-intentioned preparation, they fall into a trap.
A critical mistake that could prove fatal for them and their loved ones in a real emergency.
And it boils down to this. They boast too damn much!
Look, understand the urge to talk about your achievements with like-minded folks.
But when it comes to survival, discretion isn’t just a virtue. it’s a necessity.
Every detailed post about a stocked pantry, Every proud showcase of a stocked pantry, a water supply, a communication method, is potentially a beacon.
In the digital age, knowledge is more than just power, it’s a currency. And in the wrong hands, the knowledge of your preparations could become an invitation.
To those unprepared, desperate, or opportunistic enough to take advantage of your work when society’s thin veneer cracks.
Just see what can happen when people boast too much.
This is why I want to talk to you about the Gray Man Philosophy.
The concept of the “gray man” is not talked about enough in my opinion.
It’s essentially about blending in, not standing out.
This applies not just in the physical realm but in the digital one as well. Talk about strategies, not specifics. Discuss ideas, not inventories.
In other words, find the balance.
Believe in God and his son Jesus…
But also believe in yourself, and especially, you must believe in your basic survival skills.
For example, you don’t see me sharing photos of my backyard so everyone knows where to find me!
But can talk about how I planned my backyard.
There’s a fine line between communal learning and oversharing.
The true strength of our preparations lies in the fact that a few trusted folks know about them.
But be careful about who you trust.
As we continue down this path of preparedness, let’s pivot towards a more guarded approach.
It’s possible to be both prepared and discreet, to be ready for any eventuality without broadcasting our readiness to the world.
This doesn’t mean retreating from our community.
It simply means navigating it with a calculated caution.
Sometimes the most potent weapon is the wisdom to remain unseen.
Let’s stay safe, smart, and cautious.
God bless, and keep yourself, as well as all those that you love, as safe as possible!
The dollar, like the current US military, is losing its value around the world.
I remember when the American currency, as well as the military, used to be proud.
A global leader.
But not anymore, folks.
Inflation is on the rise. And we are currently going through a tough US recession.
And yet, experts say it’s nothing compared to what’s coming.
There could be a time when our wallets are as good as empty.
If that time comes, we have to be ready.
And think outside of the box.
If the world goes to an end of times scenario, and everyone struggles to meet their basic needs, how can we ensure we have food to eat and a roof over our heads?
Well, how did our ancestors do it?
By trading valuable goods and services.
When we talk about bartering, most people think of precious metals, ammunition, or medication as the leading currency.
And while that’s true, there are some humbler and underrated everyday items that will become invaluable in times of need.
Matches, for example.
We take them for granted these days. But in a post-apocalyptic world, the ability to build a fire can mean the difference between a hot meal and going hungry.
So stocking up on waterproof matches? Not a bad idea.
Next up, hygiene products. In extended emergencies, cleanliness can be the first casualty.
Simple items like soap, toothpaste, or sanitary products can suddenly skyrocket in importance, not just for comfort but for health.
An infection in an emergency situation? Not on my watch.
Another underrated example is seeds. Yes, those tiny things we plant in our gardens.
And, of course, skills will be as valuable as items.
Knowing how to mend clothes, repair tools, or even basic first aid? That knowledge can make you indispensable in a pinch.
My advice? Take a moment to reconsider the value of what’s around you.
Begin collecting a few essential items.
Not just for your use,
But as potential barter material.
Remember, in challenging times, it’s often the little things that make the biggest difference.
Let’s keep an eye on the details, folks.
Imagine this chilling scenario unfolding before your very eyes:
The emergency alarms blare, indicating a dire situation.
A government official, closely tied to the current administration, barges into your sanctuary, demanding access to your hard-earned stockpile.
Your carefully accumulated supplies are loaded into their bag, and they start distributing them among neighbors, including those who once mocked the idea of a disaster ever occurring.
It sounds like a nightmare straight out of a dystopian novel or a page from a history book on communist regimes.
But believe it or not, due to Executive Order 13603, recently signed into effect by the Dems, this frightening reality is happening in America right now.
Under this executive order, the government has the authority to seize and redistribute YOUR essential resources, including food, water, and other vital supplies.
However, there is hope.
A survival expert has shared a 30-second “stockpile hack“
That can effectively block the government from laying hands on your carefully curated gear.
This invaluable information is a game-changer for every prepper out there.
Don’t delay! Watch the expert’s short video, especially the crucial segment at 3 minutes and 54 seconds, to safeguard your stockpile and protect your family’s well-being.
Outsmart the government by securing your stockpile.
Remember, knowledge is power, and the time to act is now.
Share this vital information with your fellow preppers before it’s too late.
God bless you for reading this, and please keep your family safe!
Folks, are you aware that the media is hiding some very serious news about an attack that could hit our nation in a matter of weeks, possibly days?
With my deep connections to the military, it’s scary to know that we might have less than a week to prepare for this new deadly threat to America.
And I’m not talking about another situation where we all have to wear silly masks again.
This is much worse.
This kind of attack could lead to starvation, disease, and societal breakdown.
Folks, if you love your family, and you’d do anything to protect them, then I urge you to visit THIS PAGE NOWto get the details and learn how to prepare for this.
Trust me, this will be unlike anything we’ve ever experienced.
Imagine the following…
You’re flying in a commercial plane on a business trip…
And nothing is out of the ordinary….
Until, out of the blue…
All electric power inside the plane goes out.
No lights.
No power.
No ac.
No communication from the flight crew or the pilot.
And what’s worse…
No motor noise.
Just complete silence.
Soon, you start getting that sinking feeling in your stomach…
As the plane begins to drop at an accelerating speed.
Without any communication from the pilot…
Everyone begins to panic.
You try to call your wife, but there’s no way to communicate.
You’re now plunging towards the ocean at a speed of 600 mph, faster than a Tomahawk missile.
And none of the passengers know what’s going on.
The only thing you know for sure is that you’re going to die.
And all you can think of is how your wife and kids will manage to survive without you.
Most people think this nightmarish scenario is impossible…
But according to American hero and Purple Heart recipient Teddy Daniels….
It’s not only possible…
But probable.
Unfortunately, it could happen next time you get on a plane.
Teddy Daniels (pictured below) received a Purple Heart after his heroics in a firefight with the Taliban…
After getting hit with AK-47 rounds and almost losing a leg in Afghanistan…
He’s now, not only a world class survival prepper, but on a new mission to help Americans prepare for an imminent and devastating attack on America.
As an expert in intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance…
Teddy Daniels has obtained critical intel from the US Congressional advisory board on Homeland Security.
Since you’re watching this video, you’ll be one of the few Americans who will actually know what’s going on…
And more importantly, you’ll know what to do to protect your family.
Most people will have no idea of what’s happening.
They’ll have no idea they’re about to enter a world of darkness, starvation and dehydration…
Because things will get much worse on Day 2.
Yes, at first, emergency generators will provide pockets of light and power.
But that won’t last long…
Because without transportation, nobody will be able to get fuel for generators.
Hospitals will shut down.
Americans on intensive care or life support will also be among the first ones to die.
Without utility generators, there will be no water pressure.
That means your water faucets will begin to run dry.
You won’t be able to flush your toilet either.
Once people realize power isn’t coming back…
The looting will begin in every neighborhood across America, including YOURS…
Even if you live in the suburbs.
Grocery store and pharmacy shelves will be wiped clean in a matter of hours.
Without transportation, stores won’t be able to restock everyday necessities.
Shelves will stay empty….
And the supply of food, water and medications will quickly dry up.
Without refrigerators, it won’t take long before food begins to spoil.
In just a few days this single attack would turn America back to the 18th century.
By the end of that first week…
Millions of unprepared Americans will begin to eat from garbage cans.
Hunger and panic will set in…
And America will descend into total, lawless chaos.
All hell will break loose with local gangs fighting over whatever limited resources we have left.
The mobs won’t think twice before killing you and your family…
And taking everything you have.
At that point, even your own neighbors will be desperate for food and clean drinking water… and they could become a threat to you.
It will be every man for himself.
If you’ve watched the movie Mad Max, you get the idea.
Look, I know this all sounds crazy…
And if you’re thinking this can’t happen here…
Just listen to what the former director of the CIA, James Woolsey, said.
He warned lawmakers that this Russian electronic nuclear weapon could:
“Destroy much of the electric grid from above the US with a single explosion. Two thirds of the US population would likely perish from starvation, disease, and societal breakdown. Other experts estimate the likely loss to be closer to 90 percent.”
This is coming from the former CIA director!
My patriot friend, this is NOT a drill.
The threat is absolutely real.
I’ve even discussed these national security issues with my good friend President Trump in a private dinner at his golf course in Jersey.
Make no mistake…
If you do nothing right now and just wait for the government to come save you…
I can almost guarantee you’ll be among the first casualties.
You see, thanks to my military background…
I uncovered shocking government intel that confirms NOBODY will come for help.
And as a faithful Christian…
A former Army Infantry Soldier who received a Purple Heart…
And a father of four kids…
I feel like it’s my duty to show you all the disturbing proof I’ve uncovered…
And tell you exactly what I’m doing to protect my family.
Because the truth is…
We might have less than 24 hours to prepare.
Like I said before, my name is Teddy Daniels.
And if my name sounds familiar to you…
Maybe you’ve seen me in Tucker Carlson.
After he saw the combat footage from the day I almost died…
