Have Emergency Cash

None of us are immune to natural disasters. This is a good time to reflect on our own plans.

FEMA, Red Cross, and even other disaster relief groups suggest having enough food and water on hand to last at least 3 days, sometimes up to 2 weeks.

This is because after a disaster, it can be unsafe and, in some cases, nearly impossible for people to leave their residence for a period of time. It can also be important as supplies to stores, electricity, and water may be disrupted after these disasters.

Although these may not be the prettiest, below is a link for stock-up lists I put together and use for my family. Maybe they will work for you or at least give you ideas for creating your own. Let me know if there's anything I may have forgotten.

Bonnie

I feel we are all students of one another, learning from each other’s strengths and weaknesses. I am not a financial advisor, but I am continuously learning on my journey to become financially independent, and I’m passionate about teaching others how to do the same. Come learn with me so we can live our best lives and then spread our wings to help others do the same
