   When the sky lands on your head, you've missed the opportunity to prepare.   
      
      
   All indications are that it will get worse, but it's good to have   
   hope...  On the other-hand hope doesn't pay the bills, and as inflation   
   eats the heart out of your life, it's nice to have created a bit of a   
   golden parachute so that you don't crash and burn.  No reason to plan   
   any less for disaster than for retirement... you may die before you   
   retire or the disaster may never hit but why spend your life planning   
   one and not the other?   
      
   The question is do you retire with Millions of dollars or just Social   
   Security? And do you prepare for a small hurricane or winter storm and   
   expect a week without food and water, or maybe you plan for a GRID   
   FAILURE and a month or two without power, you decide the same as you   
   decided retirement.  Because when it steps up a notch from the GRID   
   FAILURE to economic collapse and the economy collapses then your   
   disaster plan may become your retirement plan.
