We created this website, How To Survive Stuff (“HTSS”) to discuss various topics in survival and emergency preparedness.  At HTSS, we believe that it is important to be prepared for emergency situations, both short-term and long-term.  We are not alarmists, we are realists.  We believe that it is good to hope for the best, but be prepared for the worst.

Our world is so dependent on technology.  Very few people are self-sufficient.  Our goal is to help you to take a step back and think about what things you take for granted and what small changes you can make in your life that may end up saving yours and your family’s lives in the event of an emergency, either short-term or long-term. The more people who are prepared, the more we will all be able to take care of ourselves and each other.
