If you work hard and get prepared, you
can survive the
economic nightmare that is coming.
All over the
United States and around the world there are millions of people that
are learning how to become more self-sufficient. For example, there
is one family that is actually producing 6000 pounds of produce on
just 1/10th of an acre right in the middle of Pasadena, California.
In fact, they grow so much food that they are able to sell much of
it to restaurants in the area.
Video of this incredible "urban
homestead" is posted below.
The key is to start with what you have.
The family in the video below would like to have a large acreage,
but for now they have turned what they do have into an absolute
miracle. Yes, a horrific economic nightmare is coming to this
country, but you don't have to be afraid. One of the main reasons
why so many of us are trying to warn people about what is coming is
so that they will wake up and take massive action to become
self-sufficient like the people in the video below have.
If you are not already growing your own food, now is a great time to
get started. According to The Food and Agriculture Organization of
the
United Nations, the global price of food
rose 2.2% during the
month of February to a new all-time record high.
In fact, this was
the third month in a row that the global price of food has set a new
record.
-
2.2% may not sound like a lot, but if the global price of food were
to increase by that amount every single month during 2011 by the end
of the year the global price of food will have gone up by 26.4%.
-
26.4% food inflation is something that is very, very serious -
especially in those areas of the world where millions are already
teetering on the brink of starvation.
As I have written about previously, the world is on the verge of
a
major food crisis.
The price of corn has increased by 33 percent
just since December, and according to the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, U.S. corn reserves will drop to a 15 year low by the
end of 2011. Many other agricultural commodities are also in short
supply and are experiencing significant increases in price.
So now is a great time to try to become more self-sufficient.
After all, do you really want to eat the garbage they sell you in
the stores anyway? Today, virtually all corn and virtually all soy
has been genetically-modified, and more "frankenfoods" are being
approved by the government all the time.
But it isn't just
genetic modification that we need to be concerned
about.
The reality of the situation is that most of the food that we
buy is complete and total garbage. The next time you go to the
grocery store just take a few moments and read some of the labels of
the products that you are buying. The truth is that our foods are
absolutely loaded with chemicals, poisons and toxins.
Those that learn to grow their own food will end up a lot more
healthy in the long run.
But food is not the only area where we should be striving for
self-sufficiency.
Water is being called "the oil of the 21st
century" and already some very significant shortages are being
reported in many areas of the United States.
In fact, some cities have already started to turn toilet water into
tap water. Fortunately this is not a widespread thing in the United
States yet, but a number of localities are now seriously considering
going to such a system.
Would you want to drink your own recycled toilet water in the
future?
If not, perhaps now would be a great time to learn how to become
more self-sufficient when it comes to water.
Even now, most localities are dumping massive amounts of
fluoride
and other toxic chemicals into our drinking water. The tap water in
most cities is so absolutely disgusting that it is a wonder that
anyone is still willing to drink it.
In any event, the key is not to focus on the problems once you
realize the truth. Instead, the key is to focus on the solutions.
That is what one family in Pasadena, California is doing.
As
mentioned above, they are producing a whopping 6,000 pounds of
produce each year on just 1/10th of an acre....
Isn't what that family is doing absolutely amazing?
Well, you can do it too.
For most Americans, the coming financial apocalypse is going to
absolutely blindside them.
But that does not have to happen to you. You know what is coming.
You have time to get prepared.
As I have written about previously, there are many other ways that
you can start becoming more self-sufficient.
-
If you are currently dependent on a job, you can start developing
alternate sources of income on the side.
-
If you are enslaved to the banks, you can reduce your expenses and
start paying down debt.
-
If you have never had any self-defense training, now is a great time
to get started.
There are hundreds of practical ways that you can begin preparing
for the coming economic nightmare right now.
Just putting up some
solar panels or starting a "victory garden" would be a great first
step for many people.
The key is to stop fretting about things so much and to start taking
action.
We have now entered a time in human history that is going to be
extremely unstable, but that doesn't mean that we have to live in
fear.
If you are new to all this and have no idea how to start becoming
more self-sufficient, there are a lot of great websites out there
that can help you out.
Some of the most popular ones are,
But it doesn't have to be complicated.
Just start to take action.
Your family is going to need food, water, energy and shelter when
the economy collapses.
Begin preparing now so that you will have
those things when you need them.
