bank runs?

BANK RUNS?
today's 2nd post, a not even long enough to be an article post.  Scroll down for the day's regular sized article
*
Thank you Commander Zero, for the reminder. There has been a run on everything else.  Is cash next?  If not ATM runs, then possible bank holidays.  I've told you forever whatever is in the bank is apt to be lost.  This is just to remind you that the crowds of panicking zombies are WAY ahead of our curve of being able to foresee their next target.  I did NOT see ALL dry foods being wiped out, nor did I see the ammo shortages and price hikes ( I'm too focused on Big Picture immediate future, I imagine ).  It is Sunday, and possibly the futures markets haven't melted down yet and alerted everyone.  Get as much of your cash out as possible, if possible.  Here is the Notes From The Bunker article click HERE

UPDATE.  Twenty minutes after posted.  NYC bank is running out, article at ZeroHedge HERE

  1. Yesterday grocery here limiting cash back to $25 if paying with debit card.

    Went to ABC Liquor to get grain alcohol (none in stock), cash only for purchases. Probably computer issue, don't know. We had processed aloe pulp from plants and are making sanitizer.

    Liquid soap, toilet paper, hand sanitizer gel all out of course. Plenty of bar soap, regular bleach.

    Read article somewhere that classed people into different levels for prepping alertness, means, and time it takes them to react to a black swan. Well read, thinking survivalists were first class. The bottom, dimest 30% of society were locusts 5th class or something. From what I see, the 5th class locusts have definitely been alerted.

    1. If the grocery store has limited cash, I imagine the banks couldn't give them as much on Friday. Because they SHOULD have plenty coming in from customers. Unless all that was spent last week and people are resorting to credit cards. Too soon to say, but best to panic. Along with everyone else.

    2. James, I do agree. 11:26 here.
      This was a teetering, Good Time Charlie economy looking for a catalyst to tip it over.

      Outside of little or no debt, Economic prep is first cash in hand and out of banks. Deeper layer is the silver and gold, virtually never spent, maybe used for buying once in a lifetime assets and as core family wealth.

      The 1.5 Trillion (and more will certainly follow) tells me this shit is out of control.

    3. The Fed is completely out of control, taking triple doses of meth to shovel down deeper and quicker the hole they are in. Celebration times are almost here. It is going to be the mother of all Suck of a reset, but your grandchildren will thank all of you. We might as well start enjoying.

  2. Just sitting back and observing this live reality show apocalypse...
    The suspense is likely to get us before the virus ?
    Lots of fallout keeps making guest appearances
    Who knows what tomorrow's excitement will be...

    1. For the first time, "got popcorn for the show" is more than just a cute meme. It really is entertaining every day. Not necessarily in a good way, but still

    2. Just like a movie only it's real... maybe ?
      Just like in a thousand apocalypse novels, you just know the leaders are lying and we can't be told the real truth.
      Yet those of us that are well read in this particular genera ...we can extrapolate as to the truth behind the scenes.
      Just like in novels , the sheeple are angry at those which are prepared. Cursing them as hoarders.

      What's next ? Will the lizard people unveil ?

  3. The corona virus is being overblown. The powers that run everything are just using a crisis to ruin the economy. Then at election time Trump will be blamed for everything. Biden or Sanders win the election, and the women that was the VP elect becomes President, when Biden or Sanders is assassinated or impeached.
    They just waited for the perfect crisis and blew it up by taking away the bread and circuses.

    1. So, how do you explain every other country, with their negative economic impact? China throws away trillions of dollars to get Hilary or Michelle elected? Come on.

    2. Seems that the devoted worshippers of the Orange Shit Gibbon, just don't believe in facts...period.
      On the other side of the coin...the hand wringing gender bender crowd are righteously indignant of those which prepared in advance. Calling them evil hoarders.

      Damn , is it open season for either of those ignorant sluts yet ?

    3. Everyone is running scared, confused, and new enough to this game they are in denial. Let us try to be charitable. If not, the season starts in 3...2...

    4. How do you explain every other country, with their negative economic impact?

      China doesn’t give a rip about its own people, so yeah they hope to cause a worldwide economic depression. That’s exactly how desperate the globalists and Chi coms are. And I am beginning to blame every single prepper site out there that I’ve been reading. Not one of them has the common sense of Rush Limbaugh who told the truth about this virus from the beginning. But everybody that profits and doom and gloom can just go to hell. All this time I’ve been flailing my arms and looking at the collectivists as being the cause of all our problems. The other extreme can be found right in these blogs where you have such individually minded people who must secretly be cheering the events that fulfill their own prophetic predictions.

    5. Rush has been an idiot for decades. A sell out, pimping hate towards the Democrats. He is absolutely no different than any doomer site cashing in. Republicans and Dems are both part of the Imperial Party. And Rush didn't exactly dwell on THAT truth, did he? He was responsible for blinding many on the right. Baby Bush, Patriot Act. A fine outstanding Republican.

      Delete
    6. And what is wrong with pimping hate towards the Democrats?—nothing! It is a civic duty, of which he liberally dishes it to faux Republicans as well.

      Everybody wants to influence the herd. This virus is overblown, but it’s the arena that Cuomo excels in, doesn’t he? He gets to talk about closing all of “my” bars “my” restaurants. Yes he gets to be the great savior. There is no doubt that all of this is being designed for one political purpose. And all the patriots the preppers the homesteaders they’re just adding fuel to that fire—suicidal. “Hey, we’re prepared and this is the moment we’ve been waiting for. As for the rest of you who chose not to live in isolation, stocking up, and generally LOATHING PEOPLE like us, too bad.”

    7. I probably hate Rush too much, and you probably like him too much. We could probably meet in the middle.

      Delete
    8. I liked Rush early on, early 90's, read both his books, listened to the radio show for years, even watched his late night TV show a few times. By the late 90's I had moved on after seeing for what he was - all anti-dem and little anti-rep. He was playing his rep listeners for dollars. Now, maybe once every couple years, I catch him on the radio in my vehicle but after a few mins I get bored. yawn The whole political mess is criminal and I do not favor any of it.

    9. You’re a good man, Dakin.

      I’m not happy with the amount of fear generated by American Partisan, Raconteur, and others whom we all read. Social media keyboard commanders have made Team Obama’s work much easier.

      Delete
    10. Aesop had this level of fear on Ebola. But he covered worse case. I found the distinction clear. Just by his actions, still going to work and staying in Cali, I don't take him as a doomer. AP, I rarely visit. Too militia porn for my taste. Have you tried The Prepared Mind? He seems to be a level headed fellow, but my goodness how he loves to hear himself talk. Perhaps I'm just numb, too much exposure, and the fear generation is going over my head.

    11. AP blocked me. I cannot comment there so I unsubscribed. They should block themselves or admit to being commies for denying 1A rights to all readers.

    12. You never came across as a troll, so I wonder why AP had issues with you. Perhaps you didn't drink their kool-aid? :) One thing to moderate, another to censor.

    13. Well I think it’s time to quit commenting and reading all this trash anyhow; you not included in that. Anyway, I get my first 200 pounds of wheat in a couple of weeks and I don’t have any mylar bags or plastic tubs. You can’t even buy the mylar bags. There’s more important work to do now. Enough of me fighting with words.

      Or

      I knew there was I reason I kept those links in my list

    15. My Lord,

      I have also used discountmylarbags several times.
      So far, good service from them.

      I used a code for a 10% discount for several years.
      It was sboards10. (found it on survivalistboards.com) I just tried it for a checkout and it is no longer any good. Do you, or any minions have a new one?

      Thanks for keeping us straight. :D

  4. The crisis is worse in countries with poorer sanitation, worse air quality, and more people packed in small areas. Most of the very old who are dead are diabetic, or have cancer from heavy smoking, maybe they live in a shithole city with 20 million people. Don't expect our government to let a crisis go to waste. Someone is fucking you or planning how to right now.

    1. Someone IS planning to screw you. And they just might. But this isn't business as usual screw you. The elite are going down with the rest of us. End empire, end industrial age, end Oil Age. Hello Dark Age my old friend, sing it with me now!

    1. If the money masters lose control of the financial system, what are they in control of? I call BS on a global wide conspiracy, so I call "most probable" on actual econ collapse.

  7. Australia situation:
    Panic buying at most supermarkets. The groceries place I worked at was doing busiest day of the year level trade (Xmas eve) every day for the last week.
    The Aus markets are tanking, Aus dollar falling, government urging calm but we all know to do the opposite. Businesses are already laying off staff.
    So - I quit my job and will head to the farm tomorrow. I've been preparing for 15 years, have skills, experience and equipment. The ex is on board, so my kids are coming down too.
    On the economic collapse, I reckon they're using the WuFlu as the excuse to cover for their decades of financial insanity, bailing out banks and airlines once again. With a healthy market and economy plus loads of energy available, this disease wouldn't have been a problem.
    Because I have unlimited meat hopping around, I bought a hunting dog pup today. A good investment, will keep my kids occupied for the next few months as things get ugly.

  8. You'll know it's real when the alcohol shelves are bare. Not even close around here. You could fill a truck at Meijer's in Michigan. We may have one more financial rinse-repeat dead ahead before the bust is evident to all. 2008 on steroids, a parabolic market blow-off, a Fed balance-sheet to $20 trillion on the way down - a real McCoy 90% crash into an inflationary depression. Could look like autarky, anarchy and autophagy, but not necessarily in that order. Been wrong on the timing up to now though, so there is that. Thanks for all the insights James, it's stimulating reading.
