So here are items I think will have trading value, guns, drugs, alcohol, illicit services, medications, access to clean water.
What am I missing? Think if the lights went out, not even permanently, but let’s say for an extended period of time. What could you see as a high value items?

where i am from, we are facing rolling blackouts on a regular basis.It's scary. I think fuel to run generators, batteries etc, have intrinsic vale.

I'm preparing as well as I can now. But crypto...NOW...can be the vehicle that allows one to afford to prep a LOT more. Just gotta know when to hold em nd when to fold em....lol
