Pretty much, most survivalists are planning to drive to their safety hideaway. Thus, walking to their retreat or riding a bicycle to get there is probably not a viable option. The odds are that where they currently undertake their normal day-to-day existence is quite a distance from the designated survival locale. How will the person get from wherever they are to the place of their survival hut? This brings up another make-or-break element of being ready. When the Stuff Hits The Fan (SHTF), note that I’ve cleaned-up that phrase a tad, the survivalist or prepper will have handy their essential items and be zipping along right away as they scurry to reach their prepared survival retreat. They even have a so-called Bug-Out Bag (BOB), also known as a Get Out Of Dodge (GOOD) kit, containing the essential items that they want to take with them to their survival retreat. One of the key elements involved in being a survivalist is setting up a survival retreat, perhaps an underground bunker someplace or a hidden shack that’s off the beaten path and far from the societal turmoil that’s coming. How many Californians are truly ready for an earthquake, other than perhaps knowing the infamous “ drop, cover, and hold-on” mantra that is repeatedly taught in our elementary schools?įor true survivalists, they would tend to point out that this lack of adequate preparation for an earthquake is exactly why they are getting ready, wanting to be one of those that will survive a calamity while the rest of society gets caught ill-prepared and presumably will perish or certainly falter when the worst-of-times arises. That being said, it turns out that only about 10% of Californians buy earthquake insurance and the remaining 90% seem to not be overly concerned about getting such insurance. In short, millions of Californians that are preparing for such a disaster are “survivalists” in the sense that they are anticipating something untoward will happen and they are getting ready for that dire moment.
