no not a troll! I am legitimately trying to see what specific items might be that would be of interest to a variety of people so that I can begin to look at offering them in my store. I am not in a situation where I can offer a huge selection of product. I would like to make this my primary source of income, but right now that is not possible. Sorry if you thought i I wasn't series or was just on here to stir up trouble.
If you HAD to buy something
2 questions...
THESE ARE NOT DREAM LIST QUESTIONS. I am waiting to see what your exact specific items would be, not general suggestions, like food, water shelter. I am more interested in an example like a Lifestraw or a rocket stove from Stovetech
If you are brand new to prepping and have no idea, to barely any idea of how or where to begin prepping what do you need / want to buy, that you are not able to make yourself?
if you are a somewhat experienced (People ask you questions about prepping. How to start, Where to start.) prepper what would be something you would seriously consider buying that fits in your budget?
Wanting to be a prepping resource for others on a large scale.

Because of the complexity of your question from a 10 year prepper, and the inability to answer a couple basic questions.....I am going to defer a response to Slippy's Attorney.
I am starting to smell a SPAMMER. Wonder what he's selling? Something to with water perhaps?What good would an answer to this question do you?
The answers would be of an advanced prepper, NOT a starter like you.
IF I was in your position, I would be asking about basics.
Do you have another reason for posing this type of question?
There ya go. He's a salesman.
Hookers and Blow?
This posting is BOILERPLATE!My spouse and I have only been prepping for 10 years and have had our house on the market 4 times in those 10. The Lord has seen fit for us to stay put in a subdivision. We have done the best that we can with what we have while also adhering to the HOA. Trust me when I say that we would LOVE to be on 5 acres with a fresh water spring, with some kind of egg laying fowl, and a shop to have a better environment to teach people to can food, butcher chickens, grow their own food and so on. We are trying to venture out into an alternative source of income and we are just trying to figure out what the best most desirable products might be for a variety of non experienced preppers to someone like yourself.
Inexperienced? 37 years of prepping?
I think you had better read the postings before you say anything.
SOUNDS LIKE YOU ARE DOING A MARKET REARCH PROBE HERE.
Sorry you think I am only a salesman. I am trying to be informative and a more thorough resource to others in my sphere of influence that are asking me. I tell them what I know through my 10 years of trial an error.
There ya go. He's a salesman.
I used iodine tabs quite a bit growing up in the Boy Scouts. Lake and flowing creek water from all over the south and the Rockies. Never got sick. If we had a fire going, water would be boiled. Now with that being said, growing up in a rural environment, we didn't always purify our water. We did drink straight from the lake/creek/whatever, as long as it wasn't a nasty stagnant pool. We were ignorant, not stupid.That is excellent. Do you worry about Cryptosporidium, since Iodine tablets don't protect against that, and with sanitation being an issue that would happen quickly it might be something that needs to be considered.
Oh boy! This, what I thought was a simple request has turned into a sideways topic that has apparently been taken in a way that was not intended. I am sorry. BTW I wasn't calling you inexperienced I was trying to state that you were very experienced and that what I was trying to do was to offer information from someone who was inexperienced all the way up TO someone of your experience level.This posting is BOILERPLATE!

HUSTLER, I am done here.Sorry you think I am only a salesman. I am trying to be informative and a more thorough resource to others in my sphere of influence that are asking me. I tell them what I know through my 10 years of trial an error.
That is great thank you.I used iodine tabs quite a bit growing up in the Boy Scouts. Lake and flowing creek water from all over the south and the Rockies. Never got sick. If we had a fire going, water would be boiled. Now with that being said, growing up in a rural environment, we didn't always purify our water. We did drink straight from the lake/creek/whatever, as long as it wasn't a nasty stagnant pool. We were ignorant, not stupid.
Then re-word your request and start again. I have no idea what you are looking for, if you're looking for information or if you are looking to deal out information.Oh boy! This, what I thought was a simple request has turned into a sideways topic that has apparently been taken in a way that was not intended. I am sorry. BTW I wasn't calling you inexperienced I was trying to state that you were very experienced and that what I was trying to do was to offer information from someone who was inexperienced all the way up TO someone of your experience level.
I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. Start again.
Thanks
okay. Sorry you feel that way, but that's your opinion. I hope that you might reconsider when I post something in the future and I and others could benefit greatly from your wisdom. Have a good night just the same .
HUSTLER, I am done here.
Hey listen up dipwad,okay. Sorry you feel that way, but that's your opinion. I hope that you might reconsider when I post something in the future and I and others could benefit greatly from your wisdom. Have a good night just the same .
Are you intentionally trying to start some crap? If so, you came to the right place bucko.
Now change your attitude and straighten up.
Thanks
Mr.Prep, You joined PF 9 months ago have you not been keeping up?
I am going to need another heart pill. My pulse is racing.
Thanks Slippy!
Okay, let me see if I can do just that. I don't post things in forums, so I certainly could be offending some that might see this sort of things all the time.
Question:
If you were to buy 5 specific items, as a prepper, (not as a survivalist) besides a firearm and ammo what would they be if you were starting out today? Maybe they would be quite different than what you bought for your very first purchase how ever many years ago that might have been. Here are 5 examples that I would like to submit to see what people would change or ad to in a realistic manner. I am not looking for a full fledge dream list just a realistic list of what someone just starting out could afford.
1. Lifestraw
2. Rocket Stove
3. Mylar Blanket
4. MREs
5. Handheld ham radio
I have tried to link to somewhat generic or the actual manufacturers website so that You don't think I am trying to spam and link to a website that is selling. Yes, the links do go to certain websites where you can buy but they are the actual businesses that are selling the items.
I hope this post is taken in the way that it was intended. Thanks again Slippy for giving mer a little grace.

My intentions were good and I am going to leave it at that. I wish you the best but I am checking off. Thanks
