I keep ammo kinda cheap packs , military surpluses ammo and other stuff , plus alot of batteries . This is what could be used to barter with . If you CEO of a company did not prep then I can trade with him or anybody els .

If people are willing to barter they need to be civil if they want long term commerce. A good reputation would be highly valuable. Scavengers get blasted in no time if they highjack a reputable trading post.

I stockpile nuts and bolts/ nails / screws / asswipe / wire. All for trade. Food I keep but if I have excess after a good crop I can trade that as well. I cannot use silver but I own it as a currency transfer if the need arises that someone wants it. Literature (how too books).

If you don't havea gun, like myself, to minimize the threat of getting robbed or someone taking everything you have, be very secerative when you barter, just a couple of things I will be getting for bartering are cigars and vodka, I don't smoke cigarettes, I used to, I don't want to get those because I don't want to be tempted but I do smoke cigars so I will be storing those fofr barter along with vodka

Yes your right, I store up stuff for barter also... Great idea, the person who is questioning you might not make it out there... Any time you would go to barter take a buddy... Nice Glock 21 I had one but decided to go back to the 9mm because its a Military round and most likely would be readily available... Beretta M9/92F is my choice right now... Good Luck out there...

looking through your vids I get a strange feeling that your looking forward to the collapse, you'd probably be disapointed if it never happened although...keep investing in silver netherless its gunan go up lol

It is a good idea to store up ammo for ANYTHING besides protecting yourself & your property. Some people are just plain scary, weird, take stuff to much to heart, & emagine after the SHTF how these exact people would be..  You were offering ideas. I wouldn't explain shit to people like that. I would of said turn me off your monitor if you don't want to hear what you have to say. That ends there. But I do realize why in all you explained, you never know who you are interacting with on-line.

I'm not a subscriber however I do view your videos. On this one I do believe you are correct. Its the old saying, "its good to have it and not need it than not not have it and need it." You can never have enough supplies. of anything.

There is nothing wrong with that plan.Although I wont.But my situation is money.I have a family of 5,and I can only stock up on the necessity.If I had the cash,I would stock up for barter and trade items.Think of it as a grocery store.Also I am trying to keep myself with in a weight limit.No sense in having more than I can carry.Sure I can bury,but if I leave an area I am at.There was a reason,and that reason may still be there,so burying would be losing.
