Emergencies Happen - Are You Ready

Most people thing that "disasters" only happen to other people.  Mostly people that live near the ocean.  The East Coast just got hit with a major disaster. Most of the people probably weren't as prepared as they should have been.

Disaster can and usually does strike when we are the least prepared. So what can or should we do about it?

We need to get away from the "it won't happen to us" mentality.  Even if you don't live near the ocean disaster can strike. The west gets their share of wildfires.  The mid-west gets tornadoes. Disasters take all kinds of shapes.

But the bottom line is.... "Are You Prepared"?

Do you have supplies and more importantly "personal information" ready?  Information such as your birth certificate and other identifying information, insurance information, bank information, contact information for family and friends.... 

Cash - because if the electricity is out your credit cards won't do you any good.

Gas for your car.  Extra food and water to last you a while. Medication. Clothes.

There are a lot of things to think about. Don't wait. Start putting together an "emergency plan" today.

Just in case. Be prepared.
