    Yes, if you don't have a fat savings account and other resources, I feel you might be in for a bit of a problem. The financial laws they passed on 2008 did not go far enough nor did they have a big enough bite. My .02 worth.

    Not just a big bank account but also multiple assets that you can sell adjusted for inflation or hyperinflation if necessary.

    If it gets that bad again we're parking the trucks. Paid for so they can sit. My dad will probably retire early or work part time and I'll get a local gig hauling frac sand or water for ~30$ a hour. Bring em back out when the dust settles.

    Won't run the wheels off for nothing

    And your lader (pantry, cold room) should be full as well. Oh and I guess you should run out and get some toilet paper.

    Woke up to snow last 2 nights and supposed to be more tonight. I just want this Mud pit to dry out so I can blade my driveway!

    On a side note. Would it be blasphemy to buy a 359 project and toss in an e-model?
    Asking for a friend. :D

    Yes, I will write code full time instead of part time, from the house where I have a huge garden and a 14 by 24 greenhouse. Fresh produce year round, lots of game, gators, dads, fish, shrimp etc.. If your hungry for it, it can be traded for down here. If things are not good for ya, drop a line, I will send a couple of my Cajun neighbors for you and yours, we will getcha here safe like. I live in a cove, so your all be safe here.

    That is about a Cajun as I get in outta cove conversation. Most folks think Cajuns are stupid. Not nearly.
