Why 90% of Prepper Bug Out Bags Will Be Useless

Interesting take on why the items you already have in your bug out bag may not be the only ones you want to have ready to go.

And, while he does discuss ways to make gathering of these special items happen faster, I would encourage you to make a list of additional important items and then rank them in order of importance, like I discuss in my 27-day course, so that you don’t waste time trying to remember what you wanted to take and where it is.
