A Cyberattack is Coming

Substack: If The Grid Goes Down, Are You Prepared?

According to the WEF, a cyberattack is inevitable. They’ve even created an entire outlook PowerPoint called Global Cybersecurity Outlook 2025, outlining potential risks.

We don’t know when it will happen, just like COVID, but we do know that it’s going to happen, and they’ve been telling us about their plan all along. The only thing we can do is prepare to the best of our abilities.

My question to you is, if the grid does go down, are you prepared? If not, you’re in for a wild ride when the power goes out, and we don’t have access to things like food, gas, transportation, and communication.

Basic Things You Should Have In Your Stockpile

Toilet paper. We all remember what happened during COVID when the shelves were completely rid of toilet paper. For that reason, it has to be on the list of things to add to your stockpile. Luckily, you can buy it in bulk for pretty cheap, like this box of 96 commercial rolls for roughly $45. It’s worth it to have one or two boxes in case of an emergency.

Emergency liquid paraffin candles. Another thing I recommend having in your stockpile, are packs of emergency liquid paraffin candles. You can find 80, 100, or 115-hour candles in packs of 3, 5, or 6. I personally have the 115-hour candles, and that will give you about 4 hours of light per night per candle for a 30-day use. So if you buy a couple of packs and only use them 4 hours per night, you have at least 3-months worth of light.

Rice. In my family, we love having rice on hand. Not only does our dog eat it with his homemade food, but we also eat it. And rice is one of those foods that, when properly stored, can almost last indefinitely. Every time I’m at the store for my weekly grocery hauls, I grab a bag of organic rice to add to the shelf.

Beans. Similar to rice, beans can also be store indefinitely - when done properly, and they’re around the same price point. Both pretty cheap and good for survival food when there’s nothing else to eat. Beans are also something I recommend grabbing each time you’re at the store. Just grab a bag or two and add it to the shelf.

Baking soda & vinegar. I don’t know about you, but I clean almost everything in my house with baking soda and vinegar. And I mean everything from my teeth to the laundry and the dishes. So if the power goes out for an extended period of time, I want something on hand to disinfect and clean with if need be. They are cheap cleaning alternatives that, again, last indefinitely when stored properly.

Water. Of course, one of the key parts to surviving a long-term power outage is water. We all need water. And if you don’t have a generator that will run your well pump (or a well pump), you’re going to need it. You can get clear 5 gallon water jugs at Walmart for around $13 that you can use for things like dishes and flushing the toilet. And then you can get dark jugs that block the sunlight on Amazon for around $20. Water doesn’t expire and can be used indefinitely when stored properly.
