My 13 year journey as a prepper started with the real estate crash of 2008, the October Surprise that presumably swung the election in that cycle... I was woke up by those events and as a newly aware, childlike viewpoint, it seemed like a major change was not only inevitable but imminent. That fear has ran its course but the circle is closing... Events seem to be signaling a coming collapse and it could be very soon. I'm thinking within a year maybe? If it depends on politics, could take a bit longer, or not. TPTB might do something stupid to force the hand of the holdouts!
