  • Age of Preppers

    Well I have been wondering about the age of all preppers. It seems most are alot younger than I am, and the older people are just letting things come as they may.
    If you would please list your age within a 5 yr span, 30 to 35, 35- 40 and so on.
    Thanks in advance

      40-45. my dad was raised in Texas durring some real hard times. As I was growing up we always had "a little something for a rainy day" but I only recently (within the last 4 years) took what he tought seriously. Wish I would have listened sooner.

        45-50 for us. We have been prepping for years. since we were 30-35
        Our Grandparents, both sides were Depression era, country folks, learned skills out of "It's just how we do it"
        We lived in Florida for our 30's and made the decision what we had learned as children was the better way of doing things.
        Being without power, water and stores to go to for a week or so, kind of forces you to make choices!

                    Tank how old are you and yours?
                    It appears as though the 40+ crowd are the majority so far.

                      I think I rep the youngins here. 30, wife is 31, 4.5 year old and a 1 year old.

                      I wish my head wouldnt have been up my butt from 14-25 because I used to be single with a good bit of wasted money. At least I started backpacking back then and learned the woods.

                      I now have a family to prep for.

                        50s for me and my bride. We've semi-prepped for several years but got serious about a year ago. Like others here, wish we'd started sooner and wish we'd found this site sooner! We're learning about a lot of things that we'd not thought of and are just now starting to put some our learning into practice! Hyper drive prepping starting in a few weeks!

It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.

                              middle aged, that's funny, I have never seen anyone that was 128 years old. I'm not sure how to go, with health and age we are kinda thinking about hungering down and ride out the storm. Instead of bugging out. Although we would like to have some place to bug out to.
