Preparedness is not just for mega-disasters
Preparedness is not just for threats of mega-disasters that are far less likely to occur or impact you. It is the once in 10 year or 30 years or 50 year disasters that you are more likely to experience.
Wildfires, floods, earthquakes, pandemics, and hurricanes are things that, depending where you live, you are likely to experience in your lifetime at least once.
To prepare for these disasters you need to think long term. Life time preparedness needs resources that last a long time.

I couldn’t agree more. There have been so many hyped threats that haven’t materialized, but it’s not a good idea to think nothing of consequence will ever happen.
