OK so I went to
"Fernando "FerFAL" Aguirre" website to read the essay as written.Certainly some good information in it and looks to be worthy of a more thorough read. However, in addition to the one section of the essay that was quoted here I also found the following points.
"Anyway, a city that goes without gas and light for more than two weeks is a death trap, get out of there before it’s too late."
"When it comes to food, cities suck in a crisis. It is usually the lack of food or the impossibility to acquire it that starts the rioting and looting when TSHTF.....Of course that those that live in the country and have some land and animals were better prepared food-wise. "
"So, where to go? The concrete jungle is dangerous and so is living away from it all, on your own. The solution is to stay away from the cities but in groups, either by living in a small town-community or sub division, or if you have friends or family that think as you do, form your own small community."
"Gas has decreased in quality as well, there is little gas."
"Besides gold coins, buy a lot of small gold rings and other jewelry. They should be less expensive than gold coins, and if the SHTF bad, you’ll not be loosing money, selling premium quality gold coins for the price of junk gold. If I could travel back in time, I’d buy a small bag worth of gold rings.....So, my advice, if you are preparing for a small economical crisis, gold coins make sense.....Even though things are bad, I can go to a bank down town and get paid for what a gold coin is truly worth, same goes for pure silver"
"There are no "bandit’s law" anymore. One used to hear people talk about "You shouldn’t resist a robbery, give them what they want and they’ll go away". That holds true no more."
I suggest you read what he has written, using what you know about your own situtation and location. Also remember, he did survive it.
