What should we buy now - looking 18 months in the future?

A coffin

Land

Land, a good well, seeds, chickens...

A/C is a frivolous luxury. And worse than useless when there is no power.

You should have put that money into beans, bullets and bourbon.

buy nothing and hope you die in the first wave.....

Yep...

Bicycle and tubes , tires.
Long guns

No such retard

Chickens, eggs

A place away from a city.

Summer of Rage coming.

Drugs...

You will be able to trade drugs for everything else listed

The cartels will take over

Bread flour, dried beans, bouillon cubes, oil, sugar, salt, spices, powdered milk, bottled water, matches, charcoal, medicines, teas & the lists goes on. Life straws are great for purifying water.

Eventually you’re gonna run out anyway.

I think we all have to focus on making more money.

Useful but only if you have the fuel to charge it, or solar panels. Solar panels are the gift that keep on giving. Gasoline not so much.

OK it looks like this package includes:
600w of solar panels
a 3kw pure sine inverter
a 12v charger
a 120v charger
3 3kw batteries.

For $7300! That's a lot of money, but it is a pretty nice package. It would be nice if the expansion battery packs could be independently useful too. Like can you pull 12 or 24vdc out of them and run another inverter? Also, 600w of solar is NOT much and you could NOT use that battery capacity and expect to recharge it on solar alone.

I have a similar setup for a LOT less money. The batteries are the killer though. 9kw of LiFePO4 is not cheap. I got 5kw for $1200. My all in one inverter charger is also 3kw from Growatt. It was $800. My panels are 250w each and I have 10 of them, so I actually have enough to charge my battery bank. I think I have about $800 in my 2.5kw of panels (they were used but all work perfectly). I figure I have another $100 of wiring and fuses and such in it too.

So my system (if I doubled my battery to match/exceed the bluetti) would have triple the solar and cost only

$4000

Honestly, for me $3300 is a pretty big markup for portability and convenience of having it built for you. But to each his own.

As soon as I get a few paychecks in, I am buying a deep freeze an a butchered cow . This will be accomplished by months end.

Heirloom seeds

This type ^^^ will be one of the first to disappear from the earth. Should take his own burial plot advice.

I've been buying multiples of everything I usually shop for, like if I need a new pair of work boots, I'll buy 2 or 3 pairs; gardening gloves, bleach. If there's a sale on detergent, like $3.99 for a two gallon jug, I'll buy all that are out on the shelf. As far as thinking ahead, the news has been clear that there will be shortages of gasoline, DEF, eggs, wheat, sunflower seeds, and baby formula, to name a few. Stocking up on several tanks or barrels of each would be smart.

Call it your ensurance policy

troy built pony tiller money maker next spring will be worth its weight in ??

eggs ???

Zero gravity massage chair.

Silver has been associated with human medicine and healthcare for over two millennia. Hippocrates wrote using silver to improve wound care around 400 BC, the father of modern medicine. Silver has featured in a wide range of writings during the intervening years, most of which highlight its capabilities, particularly limiting inflammation and infection. The interest in silver in medicine was probably spurred by longheld knowledge that silver kept many perishable items fresh for more extended periods. Silver coins were often dropped into barrels of water and milk on long journeys to slow their degradation. While it was not understood at the time, silver ions are formed under these conditions, which interrupt many microbial processes associated with spoilage. This relatively simple piece of science ultimately drove the medical community's interest in silver.
One example of this type of research is work undertaken at North Carolina State University under Assistant Professor Rohan Shirwaiker. His team has been developing an electrically activated silver-based antimicrobial implant system. They have engineered the application of low-intensity direct and alternating current mechanisms to a silver titanium implant system to release silver ions that kill or neutralize bacteria on and around the implant. A small power circuitry that can be integrated into the implant design creates a potential difference between the implant's silver and titanium components. The conductive body fluids surrounding the device result in a small electrical current via the release of antimicrobial silver ions. Such a system can be utilized in implants for prevention or the treatment of device-associated infection. With the growing number of implant procedures, including total hip and knee joint arthroplasties, such innovations in silver-based antimicrobial technology can significantly improve patient outcomes while reducing medical expenditure. They indicate negligible toxicity. Modern-day medical uses of silver began at the turn of the 19th century when surgeons used silver sutures to help minimize post-operative inflammation. Later in the 1800s, silver nitrate eyedrops were introduced as an antiseptic (to reduce neonatal conjunctivitis). The following century saw World War I soldiers take silver leaf into battle to help fight infection if they were injured in the trenches. Silver was increasingly used to treat everyday ailments such as sore throats and tonsillitis.

So, the Thai Tard ^^^ writes off the Bible and replaces it with vodka.

I actually just ordered a still. Been meaning to for awhile. Now is the time.

You can do a lot of things with it besides adult beverages. Going to be fun to play with.

How about a bounty for the capture and prosecution of the NWO crowd? You know the Davos crowd and all the others. I think the world people might really want to see the in front of a court for crimes against humanity. I sure would donate for this.

Long underwear, sleeping bags, some good socks, a toboggan. All things to keep you warm during the dark winter with no or limited power. Also candles, matches, batteries, flashlights, in addition to food and other staples.
