So I have this book called Everybody's Outdoor Survival Guide by Don Paul. He has a ton of other books on certain survival books. I also have his book Everybody's Knife Bible. It is funny because I have had these books for a while but other than looking at how to sharpen my knife or other things that I should know how to do or I have forgotten how to do, I haven't really read much of it. Well a few months ago I decided that I want to relearn or just flat out learn skills that might deem useful in survival or just everyday life. Basically I want to get back to what it is to be a man at the heart of it.
So in Everybody's Outdoor Survival Guide there is a chapter called How to Create Survival Assets. While there was really nothing in it that was earth shaking or such, there were things that made me think about the sort of economics of survival. Not necessarily talking about actual money, although that was part of it. But how to acquire things, what to acquire, what is needed and what is not and skills. Here is a list of the sections within this chapter:
Financial Philosophy
Be Strong, Fight Temptation
Survival in Grubby Times
Acquiring things you Need
The Budget Process
Banking Education and Skills
Exchange Mediums Other than Money
Planning for Others
Factors in Considering what to Acquire
I don't think this book is an end all, but it started a sort of process in what to start thinking about. Anyway, I just wanted to know if anyone has heard of or read this book and what they thought about it and specifically this chapter.
Have Fun
