The Coming Economic Collapse: How You Can Thrive When Oil Costs $200 a Barrel
In The Oil Factor, Stephen Leeb accurately predicted the current oil shortage and showed how savvy investors could profit. But now the world is facing an energy crisis of unprecedented scope, and the recent surge in oil prices is only the tip of the iceberg. With meticulous research and analysis, Leeb shows that due to strong competition from India and China for the world?s oil reserves, prices could soon top an astounding $200 a barrel, bringing an economic collapse that most countries and investors are ill-prepared for. Now in this groundbreaking book, Leeb shows how this crisis will affect you, but how savvy investing can turn these dire times into financial gain.
 

Food and clean water, don't forget to stock up. - Where we are headed, there are no Costco's to pick up that jumbo dog and large Coke!

You are not going to last long against the hordes of invading zombies or swarms of locusts without food and clean water. Get these items while you can and you will be the most popular person in your neighborhood!

First aid and fire, pretty important stuff. - Ask a caveman, he will agree - fire and neosporin always come in handy.

You are going to need to tend to your wounds after the hand to hand combat with throngs of the undead, and you may want to cook a nice T-bone after you work up your appetite - don't forget first aid kits and fire!

You are going to need shelter! - Heading for the Mountains, stay warm and dry while hiding from the forces of Mordor.

Tents and sleeping bags are essential if you are going to survive a nuclear winter or an extended stay away from civilization. Sure it is not as restful as staying at the Holiday Inn, but better then rotting in the gulag!

More important survival gear

Okay, you have the basic things to survive - water, food, tools, shelter, but don't forget these last few items to make your Armageddon survival kit complete: backpacks, canteens, tarps. Now you are ready for whatever natural or man made disaster is waiting for you!

In case you don't want to stock up on canned or freeze dried food, you can still have a healthy meal when armageddon comes.... - All you need is a .22, and no g

Squirrel melts! Yum, Yum!
