PrepperNewbie

A simple, down-to Earth and hopefully friendly introduction of myself as I travel down the road to self-preparedness. I'm not a former Green Beret, I live on a budget like everyone else does and I have the same challenges everyone else has when prepping. I'm not political; I want everybody who watches to succeed and hope everybody pulls through okay. Some things I share are mistakes I've made; a number of sites say what to do in prepping but what are pitfalls? I also like discussion that is respectful of everyone on a variety of prepping topics and please, please feel free to share your own plans, ideas, equipment recommendations in the comments. City Prepping is a Youtube channel I've found most helpful but there are others I may recommend from time to time. My own prepping "style" is one based on who I am, an older divorced Dad with kiddos and not an inexhaustible  amount of time or money. What I do have is humility, a curiousity to learn new skills and a want to help.
