In this ITRH summer shorts episode, we share seven pieces of pepper advice. These core things we wish someone would have told us when we started.

And as most of you know, we’re on summer break. So today’s episode is a “Summer Short” episode.

We’ll be back with your first full Season 5 episode August 3rd, 2015.

#1 Start all your preps from the most likely to happen personal stuff.

#2 Buy and or store food and water first before you do anything else.

#3 Build your BOB for staying at the motel or a friend’s house before building a bag for the Apocalypse.

#4 Seeks skills for saving a life before worrying so much about taking one.

#5 Set a goal to get to at least three months salary in savings.

#6 It’s not about how many guns you have or how expensive they are… It’s about what you can do with them.

#7 Try to spend as much, if not more, time practicing preparedness and physically acquiring new skills as you do reading, listening, or talking about them.
