I have a couple of generators, and fuel. We have a pantry with lots of canned goods, and bottled water etc. Although, I can walk 100 yards and have unlimited drinking water (lake Ontario). My house uses gas appliances so I can cook without hydro, and with the generators and fireplace I can keep warm if it's winter.....then I have my protection covered and we'll just leave that at that. Am I a prepper. I would say no, and I prepared, I'd say yes....cash is nice but what is the OP really asking?

I'm a Finn. I've never seen a a weather where a hard wouldn't do, and this just what I have on my account thread.
I honestly don't know what I'd do with petrol if the power went down, all homes here has to be able to be keep warm with furnaces, fire places and so .
For food I have annoying pets, and the woods, and the lakes. Starving in Finland is difficult.
