I’ve got quite a lot of rice and beans saved up, and some canned goods and I’m a mechanic by trade, 2nd least likely to die in an Apocalypse scenario, 1st being Doctors, of course.

I’m rural and have running water just a short walk from the property if the well stops pumping and I’ve got an old revolver with a few rounds in case I feel like checking-out early.

You guys?

    I honestly don’t know what I would do since I rely on the city.

    You need some bottles of water.

    Something to consider: How do you cook your rice without electricity?

      How long does bottled water last? Can I do it myself and just rotate it once a week or so?

      Good point. I have no method other than fire. I am good at cooking it without a rice cooker. Thanks for the suggestion! That is our main source of carbs.

        Bottled water doesn’t go bad, but the bottles can leak harmful plastic contaminants into the water over long term.
        Glass bottles don’t have that problem.
