re: How many of you are prepared if there were a power grid attack on the U.S.

I'm so prepared ... grew up poor being prepared. Made money, it stuck with me, took it to another level.
Have owned one of the most popular survival forums on the web ... sold it. Used the money to prep even more.
Still own a few gun forums, various makers, with survival sub forums.
Own lots of acres down a long private dirt road. A farm with lots of chicken houses. Generators and 1000s of gallons of propane to run the houses if the grid goes down ... but I would open the doors, can chickens until we got tired of doing it ... use the rest for neighbors and to feed the vicious dogs.
I own a small arsenal and ammo to go with it.
Solar panels would keep the freezers running for awhile.
A few years worth of buckets of rice and beans and pasta and jerkey and canned veggies.
Plenty of seeds for gardens.
A big family who is on the same page.
A ton of first aid stuff .... been thinking actually of writing a book about my 5Fs.
Food (short term, long term, fresh, frozen and freeze dried)
Fresh Water (possibly most important - be redundant)
Fire (cooking, heat, light, cleaning and sterilization)
First Aid (Including farmaceuticals ... this is important, ask me.)
Firearms (goes without saying but KISS)
I'm hardened from EMPs with backup panels and two old computer free pickups on the farm. A hardened diesel backup gen I had custom made from a Lister Peter engine.
I could go on and on.
I've posted pics of my reloading man cave on this forum before ... it would allow be to reload for a long time ... well into six digits, doubling my current stores.
A complete hard copy library of "When there is no doctor" and various other books ... even the Firefox series.
Hardened comms in Faraday cages. (ask me, it's easy)
We practice twice a year, winter and summer extremes, by shutting down for 72 hours.
I love these kind of threads and wish more people would get on board ... it's coming one day, be prepared.
Ask me if you have questions.
Good for everyone already with the program.

this is good stuff here.
Not going to lie....I know a few families that have been prepping for YEARS and growing up I always thought they were crazy loony people. Years later, I feel crazy for not having some sort of 'plan' in place. I guess it changes ones perspective once you have a family to take care of. I need to get on the ball asap. Any good books you recommend for someone starting from ground zero? I have access to plenty of guns and ammo but the other stuff is what I need to educate myself on.

I bookmarked this page in hope to revisit it.
This post, alone is pretty damn good reading.
Would you expand on this? Anything you want to add would be pretty cool.
This is where I got really interested
