There is a lot of research that goes into being a prepper. In fact, most of us wind up in this crazy storm from stumbling upon some book or article that changes the way we look at the world. From there its off to the races.
Once in the world of prepping there are things worth paying attention to. Every second we get to stay ahead of the game equals time that we can get ahead of a disaster. The question we are posing here is:
What should we be paying attention to?
Well, there are some industries that most preppers keep their eyes on. Preppers click links and watch videos about these things more than most. So let’s take a look at three of them,
Silver
The proposed currency of collapse, silver has a foothold on the prepping world. This is because we are dealing with something that both holds true value and is priced in a way that makes it usable.
The reality of gold is that 1 ounce costs about $1,000 depending on the day. Where silver is more like $15.
Silver price fluctuates and preppers pay close attention so they can buy now and get the best deal.
Firearms
For both the laws that are affecting them and the availability, the guns and ammo industries are always getting eyes from preppers.
Whether it be new guns or prices on old guns or even how new laws are affecting guns, it’s very important to preppers to keep a finger on the pulse of this industry.
Food
This is another industry where things are constantly being eyeballed. When it comes to food it’s about the quality, quantity, and price.
Preppers want to know about things like crop yields, pesticides, and the prices of food. All of these can be a sign that things are going wrong.
