lend me $100 who can you count on trust SHTF hi it's AlaskaGranny Alaska Prepper there were
actually two things that I wanted to share with you today and the first one is actually be sure
that you have updated and keep track of your first aid supplies because you just never know when you
are going to need something for yourself first aid emergency it isn't something very serious but it
certainly has put a damper in my day-to-day activities but I'm going to be okay but it
is slowing me down and it's inconvenient but I was glad that I had first aid prepping supplies
you never know when you're going to get a big bad wound you never know when you might break
something sprain something who knows so look over your first aid supplies and be sure that you have
something because just like that you need it and so that's too late to try to figure out
where those things could be you need them right now so please beef up your first aid supplies
the topic I really want to discuss today was would you lend me 100 dollars the reason I'm
asking is because I was reading about someone who had actually won the lottery they were
saying before you should tell anyone that you have come into a large amount of money you want
to put The Feelers out see who is really there for you who cares about you who would be there
to take advantage of you so before you would tell anyone that you would win all of this money then
you might say to five of your closest friends that you think you could count on would you
lend me one hundred dollars I'm having a little problem and I could really use it and depending
on how they respond to you is how you would know if you would dare tell anyone you just won say a
million dollars they've already set the groundwork of what kind of a relationship you have and now
you know who can I trust SHTF I thought that is a perfect example of how we should approach
prepping and letting people know non-preppers that we are Preppers or people that we think we
can trust count on maybe instead of telling anyone how we are preppers prepared we might want to ask
I'm out of toilet paper or I need some sugar or something that you would want do you have a pack
of frozen meat that I could borrow and see what they would say because wouldn't that be the kind
of things that non-preppers takers would be coming to you and asking for food they're not just going
to ask you for a pound of beans or a bag of rice they're going to ask you for something that's more
worthwhile before you want to even let people know what you have prepping supplies maybe you need to
put out your feelers find out what they have how you can trust them can you count on them are they
really there for you because if they're not there for you that's a way to determine we know who we
should be there for them finding out who's there for us can be very important I know depending on
the season of life you're in that's something that I have come to reckon with when I recently lost
the love of my life who was really there for me when he died who has been there for me through the
trials and tribulations that follow up that kind of a loss who can you count on when you have a big
snowstorm your power goes out who can you count on if you need to do some work around your house and
you're not able to accomplish it on your own who are your family members even who are the friends
and family members that are going to be there for you and you want them to also know that you would
be there for them who you can count on and who can count on you is a two-way street sometimes there
are people we do all kinds of things for and then when we really need something we find out they're
not even there for us so maybe we need to put our feelers out ask people for some help and see what
kind of a response you get it certainly has been something that has opened my eyes in the last few
months when I've had some needs and some of the people that I thought would be there for me are
not so I'm reevaluating some of the relationships in my life of who I thought I could trust and who
could be there for me because I know I'm there for them and so it's also giving me the knowledge
that I need to broaden my horizons and build my prepping community a little bit bigger of
who we can actually be there for each other and trying to figure out sometimes who you can count
on can really be a challenge that we know we're there for someone but how do we know for sure
if they're going to be there for us when we need them so maybe you want to take that approach of
what if you did win the lottery could I borrow something it doesn't have to be a hundred dollars
ask them for something and just see what happens do they say yes are they there for you ask them to
come and help you with some just tiny tasks and even if then you say oh you know what I figured
it out I don't really need it but you already have the answer and so that can really be valuable in
all kinds of emergency situations so number one beef up your first aid supplies and number two
see how you can put your feelers out and really decide who is there for you who is in your prepper
community and maybe look for some new people that you can reach out to that you are going to be
there for them and they can be there for you too it's always a good day to make a new friend when
possible if you enjoyed my video I hope you'll share it with someone else you think might like
