That site is a ripoff because I can get most of those exact food items for under 20 bucks

I wasn't advertising the site, I found the link at random off of google and posted it as an example, so people could look at the dehydrated food cans. By all means, post a link where there's a great deal on the stuff.

Here's is something I do specifically recommend for those of us who don't have the skills, there's a couple, Ron and Karen Hood, that produced a number of survival skills dvd's, they are excellent, from our current topic of storing food, to using your hot water heater as an emergency source of water should the supply be shut, a whole bunch of very clever skills that could keep your misery to a minimum in the least, and save your life in the worst circumstances. For our purposes, I recommend their Urban Master - The Home DVD.

For survival I can recommend John Seymour.

He is the greatest.

He will give you a lot of tips how to run a small scale agriculture and to preserve the food.

I know a lot about this issues and I can tell you he will make even you able to do this kind of things properly.

Wow, we may have stumbled upon something here, we could start a JTF financial security section where we can pool our knowledge on financial issues and methods to get through the coming hard times.

I actually wanted to do a video on this subject.  I will try to put something together by next week.

You want a REAL investment?? FOOD NON PERISHABLE FOOD- rice, beans, top ramens ETC.

Oh yes... I forgot about my dad's advice.  The best investment in times like this:  AMUNITION!!!!!  and lots of it.

"AMUNITION!!!!! "

You were missing some ammunition when you wrote that word.

I buy
American Eagle Gold Coin (0.10 oz.)  106.25 -   120.00
from
http://www.bulliondirect.com/nucleo/
From what I understand you should buy golden eagles because they won't be confiscated.
I buy at least one a month, sometime more. It is a small investment but they sure do add up over time.

They can't be confiscated BUt you need to give your SS when selling them. Just FWIW to those who are tax conscious. :)

O My! didn't know that. Thanks 4 the info

I think that depends upon who you sell it to.  A lot of dealers dont request that information.  I really don't think its required... but some dealers do it to protect themselves from fraud, money laundering, etc... but I could be wrong.
