The Modern Survival Manual: Surviving the Economic Collapse

Anyone read it?

I just ordered it. The concept is intriguing and so obvious in retrospect - surviving an economic crisis from the perspective of someone who's survived an economic crisis.

The Modern Survival Manual is based on first hand experience of the 2001 Economic Collapse in Argentina. In it you will find a variety of subjects that the author considers essential if a person wants to be prepared for tougher times: -How to prepare your family, yourself, your home and your vehicle -How to prepare your finances so that you don't suffer what millions in my country went through -How to prepare your supplies for food shortages and power failures -How to correctly fight with a chair, gun, knife, pen or choke with your bare hands if required -Most important, how to reach a good awareness level so that you can avoid having to do all that These are just a few examples of what you will find in this book. It's about Attitude, and being a more capable person and get the politically correct wimp out of your system completely.

Looking forward to getting it!
A strong conviction that something must be done is the parent of many bad measures.

Read it. Good book. It challenges a lot of the preconceptions we have as preppers with a real life example. Those being: The group survival retreat where you and your friends will wait out the collapse. Having a retreat in a remote location far away for anyone is the safest place to be. Plus a bunch of others.
