Grow a garden and build your life off grid while you still can. Amazon can deliver seeds to remote places but not for ever. Put dollars into tangible items. Anticipate scarcity and focus on new life skills. You will be rewarded by every step you take away from this cratering society.

I disagree…..We have to use their system to our advantage to build our new system. We use dollars because we have to….Not because we think it is a stable currency. Example…..use dollars to buy tools and silver.
Remote as in absolutely nobody within many miles of you?
Every tried living without electricity - without spare parts -- without a water pump to irrigate the garden -- without shops to buy anything -- without petrol --- ever tried cutting splitting and hauling a tree from hundreds of metres from your house with an axe and no mechanical means to shift it to your house -- and the trees get further away every years....
Read some stuff on pioneers in north america - these were tough men who grew up in the 1800s and new how to live like this - and even they were on the verge of starvation much of the time.
There are 4000 Spent Fuel Ponds Around the Globe…who maintains these?
If you don’t cool the spent fuel, the temperature will rise and there may be a swift chain reaction that leads to spontaneous combustion–an explosion and fire of the spent fuel assemblies. Such a scenario would emit radioactive particles into the atmosphere. Pick your poison. Fresh fuel is hotter and more radioactive, but is only one fuel assembly. A pool of spent fuel will have dozens of assemblies.
One report from Sankei News said that there are over 700 fuel assemblies stored in one pool at Fukushima. If they all caught fire, radioactive particles—including those lasting for as long as a decade—would be released into the air and eventually contaminate the land or, worse, be inhaled by people. “To me, the spent fuel is scarier. All those spent fuel assemblies are still extremely radioactive,” Dalnoki-Veress says.
It has been known for more than two decades that, in case of a loss of water in the pool, convective air cooling would be relatively ineffective in such a “dense-packed” pool. Spent fuel recently discharged from a reactor could heat up relatively rapidly to temperatures at which the zircaloy fuel cladding could catch fire and the fuel’s volatile fission product, including 30-year half-life Cs, would be released. The fire could well spread to older spent fuel. The long-term land-contamination consequences of such an event could be significantly worse than those from Chernobyl.
Japan’s chief cabinet secretary called it “the devil’s scenario.” Two weeks after the 11 March 2011 earthquake and tsunami devastated the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, causing three nuclear reactors to melt down and release radioactive plumes, officials were bracing for even worse. They feared that spent fuel stored in pools in the reactor halls would catch fire and send radioactive smoke across a much wider swath of eastern Japan, including Tokyo.
The Chernobyl accident was relatively minor, involved no spent fuel ponds, and was controlled by pouring cement onto the reactor. This was breaking down so a few years back they re-entombed.

You are right of course - people use the words "self-sufficiency" and think of a TV gardening show. In my climate, off-grid life without animal husbandry would be impossible, and they are making all efforts to de-legitimize the way of life.
My suggestions in response to your comments would be: buy a hand winch now, as well as rainwater collection systems. At the very least, small off-grid power for charging tools. Begin to lean how to live with animals. Think strategically about how you will navigate changing landscapes in the law.
And join me on the blog of course. It's free to read.
Here is an example, discussing what animal husbandry really means.
Futile. The mob including your neighbours who dont have gardens - and most certainly your extended family who currently think you are a doomsday nutter -- will show up at the gate demanding to be fed
You all are all speaking of the point after the world collapses... what about using this knowledge now and stopping this cabal and crushing these motherfuckers.... what happened to us
What are “tangible items” if the ultimate plan is to steal everything whereupon they totally control all aspects of society through digital means? Property?

Do NOT patronize Amazon!
Ever.

While I have your attention…..THANKS…..you are amazing and have contributed so much to setting the new “common” knowledge. Keep up the great work.

What sort of dancing?
Disco Dancing?
You don't need seeds. You can get free seeds from almost every plant in existence.
Futile. The mob including your neighbours who dont have gardens - and most certainly your extended family who currently think you are a doomsday nutter -- will show up at the gate demanding to be fed
They just might get some most delicious lead sandwiches.
And they mob doesn't have weapons?
Try weeding a garden when there are snipers with military experience hiding in a tree waiting to put a bullet in your head....
I’ll have my wife cover me while I’m weeding….She is a better shot than me anyway.
Remember, if they advance to that point, they will also take away the guns🤦🏼♀️!

Sharon….my thought is that they will steal my 401K first….and my garden shovel last.
