I do not consider myself a prepper in that I consider preppers to be those idiots on tv who can think of nothing else...

I do however, have a closet where I keep all of my hunting and fishing shite where there is also bug out bag and 4-5 days worth of food and water...

I honestly consider it just good planning in case of a tornado, ice storm, etc. that would quickly clear the store shelves...

I consider being prepared just thinking about how you would do things in a pinch and not really spending your life savings installing a bunker and buying years worth of food...

Knowledge is the most valuable "prep"

I keep enough in the house to survive a couple weeks. But nothing special.

Yeah, people amassing a years worth of stuff are doing it wrong. Living somewhere sustainable and learning how to get by with less is how you survive. Not amassing qty's of goods that could get stolen or get you killed. Simplifying, not storing is the proper SHTF preparation.
