Any specialized plans to profit and capitalize on preparedness?

Probably the only way I'd be able to have my own bar was after fallout. I need to buy some corn.

Obviously I'm drinking right now, but seriously, do you have plans as a vendor/supplier/trader/capitalist to profit/provide during SHTF?

People have needs, period. It rains, retailers sell umbrellas and rain jackets. It's the way she goes.

No.

My pre-SHTF plan is identical to my post-SHTF plan...

Take care of my tribe to the absolute best of my abilities.

Should I have extra necessities with which I am willing to part, I would do so fairly and honestly. Capitalizing on the misfortune of others, especially those who made an honest effort and did their damnedest to provide for their respective tribe, would make me no better than the f*cking reconstruction carpetbaggers of the late 19th century.


Additionally, business at my side job will be a-boomin' because there's gonna be a lot-o-sh*t to clean up after it hits the fan....

There's cash in trash

I used to keep a few gallons of liquor for trade fodder, and a few pounds of tobacco and filter tubes for making cigarettes. Then I got drunk and smoked em all.

So there you go...

Taking care of your tribe. Numero uno. Just thinking ahead. If I make a still post-shtf, people need their liquor to escape, I have it.

Just thinking out loud.

Ya you'll have a lot of work. I just watched threads. dead bodies all over the place. cholera/typhoid, other disease. You have your work cut out for you.

When the world ends I'll raid the local abc store of its everclear and a few bottles of the nice stuff they keep behind the desk. Problem solved.

You mean you'll hope you make it there before everyone else does. I bet those will be hit as hard and fast as grocery stores

Methinks you'd rather find yourself at a Walmart on December 24th.
 
Having things worth trading will be important. Having marketable/barter-able skills even more so, I believe.
 
I'm going to sell my seed.....

Toilet paper.....can never have to much. But what you do have is not enough.

Tampons and pads will be good to have also. Just ask any woman how much they have on hand and you'll get your answer on why they'll be a great item to have.

Naw, if my seed sells like I suspect it will, there will be very little use for tampons...The most common vaginal bleeding will be from birthing MY GLORIOUS SEED!!!!!!
 
I am going to make money selling hugs.

It's called a bidet.

Check out Selco's story of Bosnia and where was that other account from Argentina? These might supply some insight.

Most of y'all would be quite welcome for a planned visit, but pop-in company is generally discouraged. Might go so far as to say it's frowned upon.

If you are planning on sneaking in, all ninja-like, do be mindful of them trip wires.
 
Me? When the world goes to hell, I'm going to build a thunderdome. Come on over to my place to settle your differences like men. I'll even provide a chainsaw!

I don't want to be known as the guy with a plethora of stuff for barter. Someone will ultimately just want to take it.

Get what you're saying but let's say there is some rebuilding of society, solid outlaw justice that keeps people on the line, and you maybe own a general store.
