I just want to make a note of a personal nature. It is important to me, now that I am awake (to the absolutely insane amount of corruption in government, the insidious plot by a small elite to use incrementalism to dumb us down and steal our freedoms from us in a long term plot to have absolute control), to do my part and help others wake up so they can protect themselves and their families.

I have become awake to all the lies (well, not all – I find myself learning more and more every week), how the elite use the media to brainwash us, how we are being killed slowly via chemicals and heavy metals in the water we drink and food we eat, how there are crazy operations like HAARP and chem trailing and false flags to manipulate us, how we giving away our rights to freedom under the banner of being protected from terrorists and terror attacks, and I can go on and on here seemingly.

I am awake to all this because one day, searching the internet, I came across some compelling information that I did not accept immediately. I had already heard the message before but did not decide to confirm it for myself. I did not check to see if it was true or not. But on that day, I decided to just check and it WAS true. All the lies, cover ups, corruption, plots to take over the world, etc., were true and not only that but it explained why everything is so messed up.

Everything seemed to make so much sense as the pieces began to really fall into place. They are still falling into place but now I got it. And I really owe the majority of it to Alex Jones. The guy is a saint. He ain’t perfect and he’s always the one to admit it but he sure is doing one hell of a job waking people up to what is REALLY going on. (I’ll leave a link at the bottom of the post)

He brings in experts, politicians, professionals, celebrities, scientists, journalists, and more into a nexus of information. He brings it altogether FOR ONE REASON; to help use wake up so we can ban together to take down the shadowy government that is manipulating us for their own purposes.

Now that I am awakened, I feel compelled to do the same at my own capacity. I created this blog that is getting more and more viewers every single day. I provide info on what you must do if you want to survive this storm. I advise buying precious metals so we don’t have all our wealth stolen through inflation, I advise you on what to get prepared in order to survive the total collapse that IS going to happen (unless we wake up sooner and take down the elite before they can take down the economy). I even give you links to resources where you can get this stuff. It’s all here and I will be adding more of course.

I will not reach as many people as Alex does but I will reach some. This is important and this is why I do it. I feel good knowing I am doing my part. I also tweet from my twitter account to hundreds (I will reach thousands because my twitter following is growing) of people, giving them youtube videos and quotes and facts. This is all in an attempt to make us stronger in numbers as we wake up to what “they’re” doing so we can make them stop and go away.

I write this because I want you to understand and to compel you to do the same at your own capacity. You will do it different to me but you will do it none-the-less. If you don’t have a way yet, a powerful method is to share this video with people Fall Of The Republic. It’s totally free and it really helps people wake up I tell you.

Please help me and share that video, email the link to everyone on your email list, put it on facebook, twitter, your own blog, anything. Burn a copy and hand it out to friends, family, and strangers on the street.

This is a bit of a call to action but it’s good.

Best,
Cosmo

Get Your Urban Survival Guide Here: Urban Survival Secrets For Surviving The Great Global Economic Collapse!

Though EconomicCollapseSurvival.com is primarily about surviving the downturn of the economic environment over the long haul (and even how to profit from it), it is still useful to know how to prepare a survival kit or gear bag with survival supplies called a bug out bag (72 hour kit) for short term emergencies. It’s called a bug out bag because when you’re bugging out in an emergency, you won’t have the wherewithal to get your act together.

Family preparedness should be top priority. In addition to your emergency bag, you need to know you have, not only a prepared family, but also a community that you can integrate yourself and your family into during a crisis. So, emergency management and neighborhood preparedness should be top on your list of priorities as well. Get to know your neighbors, they will be an invaluable resource. They may also be able to help you put together your emergency kit or they may have extra survival equipment to give you.

When disaster strikes, fire preparedness, flood preparedness, earthquake preparedness, etc.. along with survival management skills and a well stocked survival preparedness bag will drastically improve your chances of survival. Disaster supplies in an evacuation could be the difference between life and death. If you have the right emergency gear with the right survival products inside, you will be faaar better off than someone who has done no pre-planning.

For your safety, your bug out bag should be in an easily grab-able location like by a door in your house or have a car emergency kit complete with outdoor gear, camping and travel gear that you can easily carry. This 72 hour kit should contain all the supplies you will need to keep you covered for at least 3 days. This is a BARE MINIMUM. If you have all your basic daily needs taken care of for 3 full days, that is a great start but it is advisable to have at least 1 to 2 weeks worth of food stored in and around your house.

Large families will do best to divide up the gear into several easily accessible bug out bags placed, for example, inside each individual’s backpack or in grab-able plastic rubbermaid bins that can be easily wisked away during an emergency.

You can buy ready made bug out bags, or you can prepare your own. I’ll detail below all the things you’ll need in your 72 hour kit.

A nice advantage in preparing your own bug out bag is you can decide to pack the foods you enjoy. And just as a simple reminder, you’ll want to rotate your stores of food inside your 72 hour kits because all foods have a shelf life and if the food goes bad then it does you no good to prepare it in the first place.

Bug Out Bag Contents: Your List Of 20 Essential Items For 72 Hours

1. AM/FM portable radio – if you have a crank radio that doesn’t need batteries, you’re golden. But a battery operated radio with extra batteries does the job as long as those batteries stay alive!
2. First Aid Kit – in addition to the medical supplies, make sure it contains an emergency preparedness guide as well
3. Water – 1 gallon per person per day for hydration and washing. Keep water purifier as well as purification drops like Miracle Mineral Solution (www.miraclemineral.org). Also be sure you have containers that will not breach under freezing temperatures. Water storage barrels might come into play depending on your situation.
4. Fire – wind and waterproof matches in waterproof container. In addition to the matches, keep a utility butane lighter
5. Blankets – if you don’t have good quality mountaineering sleeping bags, wool and space blankets will work just fine (NO cotton)
6. Light – flashlight with extra batteries and propane lantern with additional propane tank. Glow sticks and candles too.
7. Toiletries – toilet paper, toothbrush, toothpaste, dental floss (great for tying things), shampoo and conditioner packs, razor, napkins and sanitary napkins
8. Knife and survival tools – survival knife. Swiss Army knife with scissors, can opener, and screwdrivers (utility tools like leatherman and gerber are very good as well)
9. Map – of the area
10. Compass – self explanatory
11. Whistle – for attacks and emergencies
12. Sewing Kit – keep heavy duty thread in this one
13. Towels and Dishcloths
14. Cutlery – enough for the family
15. Tent and Tarp
16. Clothing – enough warm clothes for each family member (long-johns, wool hats, mittens, jackets, scarves, raincoats, good warm boots, etc..)
17. Entertainment – good for kids especially. This can free up time for parents to plan next moves (tactical)
18. Individual needs – diapers and baby kit, medications, pair of extra glasses, etc..)
19. Garbage bags – 25 heavy duty plastic bags can come in VERY useful. (garbage, raincoats, ground-cloths, shelter)
20. Rope – 50 feet of light rope

This should keep you going for a while. Consumable items will need to be bulked up if you want to turn this bug out bag from a 72 hour kit to a 7 day kit or a 14 day kit. That includes food and water chief among consumable items.

If you think self defence will be an issue, military gear, firearms and ammunition, (gun and holster), should be taken into consideration for your emergency planning. Also, don’t forget your camera bag. You might stumble upon some amazing photo opportunities.

The world currency collapse will occur either in 2011 or 2012. If not fully, then in large part. It’s serious and needs our undivided attention.

‘The Economic Collapse 2011 / 2012′ Top 10 Survival List Below…

But before I begin my blog post on the economy collapse, just 1 caveat:

To survive the Financial Collapse 2011 and 2012, there really is one thing, if we do NO OTHER THING, that will save our butts. If we decide to pick up some Precious Metals (SILVER) for the coming collapse, we will be WAAAAY better off then had we allowed the systematic inflation to silently steal our wealth without ever showing a transaction on our bank statements. We’ll need proper Survival Planning but beyond anything else, any other message here on this site, I want you to really think about and contemplate and RESEARCH what this means, what I am saying. Please commit to doing that.

================================

The economy IS in dire straights. The system we rely on for food, shelter, safety IS VERY FRAGILE. The world’s socio-economic state is EXTREMELY volatile right now. And now more than ever we are on the verge of having everything we’ve known and trusted be taken out from under us by the powers the be.

That is why it is SO CRUCIAL we learn how to fend for ourselves and get prepared for the unknown so we can be okay when everything else is not.

My good friend Dave, the “full on survival expert”, has created a survival course called, “Survive In Place” survival manual. It  is just, hands down, the best manual I’ve come across out there to help each of us survive literally any crisis we could face.

It has short and easy to digest “written and audio” modules that contain nothing but meat and are complete and thorough.
Each module has a practical application you can practice to get prepared.
Every lesson builds on the previous ones. And Each lesson is designed to be “to the point” and immediately actionable.

The great thing is that the manual is backed by a 100% FULL satisfaction guarantee.  So, if for ANY reason you are not completely satisfied, you just send Dave a personal email any time after 60 days for a full prompt refund. I happen to know for a fact that Dave stands behind this 6000%!

With absolutely nothing to lose, this Survival Guide is a no brainer. Pick it up right now and save yourself a LOT of hassle:

Survive In Place Survival Guide

================================

Now, on buying Precious Metals (especially SILVER)…

If you did nothing else this would be the 1 thing that could literally save you in deadly times ahead. And I’m deadly serious about it – take it from me, I’ve done hundreds of hours of research on this one topic and I encourage you to do the same so you know what I know.

I have one video to explain what silver can do for you and then the top 10 list of things you need to do in order to be prepared for the worst further down the page…

Protect Your Wealth – Learn About Precious Metals

Can we Survive an all out Financial Collapse in 2011 or 2012?

We can as long as we take this moment to educate ourselves about community, survival techniques, food and water storage, and silver.

The economic collapse (that being the entire collapse of our whole financial system) can be considered an event in its own right BUT the collective survival of that event would be an even greater event in my opinion.

However, global prosperity during the “economic collapse” event from a global standpoint will not occur. It cannot. Let me illustrate.

In fact the crisis itself will be picking up major steam in 2010 but the collapse may not be complete until late 2011 or  2012. In the event of, say, total Economic Collapse 2011 / 2012, here’s what we would have to accomplish to prevail:

1. Majority global awakening to the corruption and the takeover of our economy, politics, and sovereignty
2. Banding together and forming masse protests against the government, the global elite, and the corporate and banking interests (the new world order) and
3. The deconstruction of that elite and a rebuilding of society based on basic human rights of freedom and the liberty to pursue happiness (and WITHOUT national debt, war, martial law, the federal reserve bank, hyperinflation, foreign debt, bailouts, etc…)

In the case this doesn’t happen so succinctly, there may still be lot’s we can do…

The beauty is, it can happen on a personal level, a family level, a neighborhood level, a community level and so on. This is what we must be aiming for. It will become imperative for survival that we turn off our TV’s and stop eating what the mainstream media is feeding us.

To survive the “economic collapse 2011 / 2012”, we are going to have to initiate friendships with our neighbors, develop and maintain the relationships we already have with our families and friends so that we might benefit from the support of each other. People who network are going to have a far better survival rate.

There is no survival without this community support in dire times. One might make it alone but the likelihood is slim to none and very undesirable. We need each other. We need a survival list for our preparations.

Here are a few points of necessity for survival with respect to preparation and community building in this economic crisis. This will be your economic collapse survival guide as you prepare for disaster…

Top 10 Things To Do To Survive The Economic Collapse 2011 / 2012

1.     Buying bullion like silver and gold in order to protect your own wealth is very wise. This should always be the case in economic survival scenarios where there is a crisis in the economy. While you are securing your position in precious metals, encourage your community to do so also. For, you will need a community that, not only has preserved it’s wealth, but is also able to maintain and preserve its liberty by not becoming dependent on the powers that would wish us ‘destitute and needy’ in order to establish its control and domination over us. I’ve heard from the highest sources that investing in silver in these unprecedented times will be THEE number 1 way to protect you and your family from total financial ruin – learn how to buy silver. And Silver is too cheap to pass up right now. I highly recommend getting some now, even if only a few coins for now, while the getting remains good. Make sure you know WHICH FORMS of silver to get. You don’t want to buy a bunch of silver only to find that, in that critical moment, it isn’t going to help you like you expected it to.

2.     Survival of Economic Collapse 2011 / 2012 also dictates that we get educated, update our education, and help to educate others in our community about what can be done to get through it.Purchase survivalist books and guides (survival manuals). Keep this an ongoing project. In the great depression – community living was the key to survival. This will be the next great depression… but worse. Much worse.

3.     Have a store of food rations for at least a year for yourself, your family, and your community if possible. Obviously take care of your family first but in the meantime, get out there in the community and help people wake up to the importance of getting prepared with non-perishable products (store-able food for food storage).This is where education comes in useful; an uneducated person will continue down the same path. An enlightened individual will make informed decisions during an emergency.

4.     Keep being a beacon of light to your community. Find and share information: books, movies (video and DVDs, YouTube videos), websites, political forums, newsletters. You have a great resource in the movies section of this blog.

5.     We must awaken to the global tyranny that is robbing us of our wealth and freedom. The inflation you are dealing with is a direct result of this tyranny – it steals our wealth and then our freedom. And in order to survive it and stop it, we must purchase silver. I know I hammer this point but it is that important. Let me paint a quick picture: The value of the dollar goes to zero. The middle class is robbed of their wealth. Society stops with all it’s functions: electricity, transportation, food shipment, etc… During this time people will be desperate and if you are not prepared, you’ll be one of ‘em. This will be a harsh time, temporary, but harsh. And the best way to avoid it is buy cheap silver and sell high. (HINT: when everybody and their dog wants silver and everybody knows how rare it is and it is at least $1000 per ounce, and there are line ups outside of coin shops, and there is none to be found anywhere, that’s when you, because YOU already HAVE your holdings, sell it all and buy real estate)

6.     Get your survival gear in order – NOW. Disaster preparedness demands it. You can see a list of stuff you need in my Bug Out Bag article in the article section of this blog.

7.     Be a good survivalist: Find a viable source of non-polluted water for your community. Without it you will die of thirst. This is an important criteria in survivalism as you may well be aware of but have you found one? Does your neighbor know where to get good clean water? What’s your plan? You must have this in place before the poverty in America and the world reaches its climax. Know in advance.

Survive The Coming Food Shortage

8.     Get seeds for gardening – better yet, find a gardener in your community and make friends! Create mutually beneficial exchanges. Like, you provide the gardening space and the seeds in exchange for all the veggies you and they can eat.This is great security! (look into homesteading) Essentially, whatever skills you have, see if they would be useful in a survivalistic, self sufficient, community based scenario. If not, get seeds, lots of ‘em and I guarantee, in exchange for them, your community will take care of you.

9.     Get an alternative energy source: solar power is a great one… and below is a link (click the banner just below) to see a VIDEO that explains how to get free energy from existing radio waves in the air… Think of the long term advantages. You may not need electricity but it can be very useful. AM/FM radios, lights, refrigeration, computers, etc…

10.     Think of your safety. Self defense might come into play. Just something to think about. I care about the safety and welfare of my family and so this is one piece of the puzzle.

Survival of the Economic Collapse 2011 / 2012 will require you to have your plan in action ahead of time. That means right now. Get your wealth put into precious metals. “IT’S THE ONLY MONEY YOU CAN RELY ON”. I cannot be any more clear than that. Consider the dollar as DEAD to you! (Remember the German Weimar? How it went to zero? This is no different. Actually it is because this time it’s global) Survival during Economic Collapse 2011 / 2012 can be a reality if you choose to act now while there is still time. If yu don’t think this is happening, you better thing again. And again after that and wake up to the severity of it.

Now, I understand that some people don’t have a lot of money to invest in silver with. And for that reason, I’m providing a resource that can help you actually build up your Silver Eagle collection over time in this serious time of economic crisis. I don’t recommend that this be your only source of silver but it is a good one in addition to your regular purchases. It won’t be for everybody but for those of you who are looking for a fun and cheap way to get started and get some silver, this is a great resource that I myself am enjoying.

There is no greater feeling, when it comes to financial security, than knowing you got a nice stack of silver to offset any inflationary effects of the current economic meltdown. Knowing you’ll be safe from losing your wealth or your home, being 100% ready for the death of the dollar. Silver has increased in price over 300% in the last 5 years. It is important to know that, because of the demise of the dollar and the inevitable rise in inflation, having silver now, guarantees that you will be able to cash in BIG TIME in the not too distant future.

There is absolutely no better feeling once you have begun the process of owning your very own physical SILVER that you can touch and hold. And you really don’t have to start with spending a whole lot right off the bat. Just start small (2 coins even!) if you need to and build from there. It’s very addicting! LOL. And it’s FUN receiving Silver on a regular basis.

The nice thing is, it can really add up and before you know it, you’ll be sitting on a big ol’ stockpile of Silver coins. Please check out the link above if this message resonates with you.
