  • Privacy: Don’t Show All of Your Cards to Survive [Guest Post]

    Post by John from Destiny Survival

    I’m from the old school. I’m a middle aged man from a rural
    background, who’s been around for some time before the Internet,
    blogging, Twitter, ad nauseam. People today have no sense of what it
    means to keep things private. For example, teens don’t have the sense
    to know how serious sexting is. Not until they’re fined or jailed will
    they get a clue.

    But why fine or jail them? Everything else is out in the open, isn’t
    it? What’s the big deal?

    Sorry, but I don’t operate that way.

    Now, to tell you just a little about my own prepping. I do have a
    couple of water filtration devices because water’s extremely
    important. We’ve got a little storage food set by, but not nearly
    enough. Can there ever be? If a mouth breathing knuckle dragger comes
    down my driveway, he’ll be met with an unfriendly welcome, and that’s
    all I’ll say about that.

    So if you’re disappointed in me for not disclosing all, I know it’s
    tough, but you’ll get over it.

    I write regularly about survival and prepping at Destiny Survival, where some of it is based on my
    own experience and some is frankly intended to get you to buy things
    you need for your own prepping. But even there I don’t tell all.

    I’m a firm believer in the importance of having a survival mindset.
    Your best survival tool lies between your ears. Thankfully, nobody can
    ever know everything you’re equipped with up there.

    My advice to you? Be a prepper for your own good. Keep your mouth
    shut and don’t use your keyboard to blab about what you’re doing.

    You’re sure to invite trouble one of these days if you spill your guts
    to the whole world… and don’t think they’re not watching.
