You may be able to 'soft prep' by just laying out and running through a basic plan. Where you would go if shit hit the fan, who you would contact, how you would contact them with ISPs/cell towers out, where you would get clean water, how you would get food, etc.
That way you're more prepared than 95% of people if something catastrophic were to go down, but you've only spent a weekend's worth of time and $20 on a pack of walkie-talkies. There seem to be diminishing returns where you're giving up current quality of life/free time for increasingly smaller 'preparedness' value.
- Taylor_OD 8y agoIf you have enough water/food in your house for you and your family/roommates for 7 days you will be more prepared than most. That would cost you about $25-$50 in water jugs and another $50 in meal bars or something similar.
- XorNot 8y agoThe answer to every question regarding "where would you go" is "nowhere, unless there's imminent localized danger". There's a reason most state-level disaster relief advice starts with "stay in your homes" unless there's actual flood waters rising or something - because masses of people suddenly moving about is a pretty good way to create a whole bunch of disruption and disaster.
