What happens when the lights go out?
When civilization winds back the clock eight hundred years?
When you realize that modern commerce will no longer provide for your and your family's needs?
How will you survive?

UNSCRAMBLE YOUR NOTIONS OF MODERN ETHICS PAST THIS POINT.
The Law of the Jungle is now in effect - kill, be killed, tribe up.
The first two are self-explanatory. If you are not good at the first, and do not desire the second, prepare yourself for the third.

In extremis, the value of a man's life is contingent on what he brings to the table that advances the survival of the tribe.
Modern men are weak.
If you cannot fight, organize, build, gather, or cultivate, you are worthless (or at least, worth MUCH less).

Get comfortable with the outcomes of violence.
The post-apocalyptic man has no choice - you will inflict harm on others, or care for those who've been wounded.
Shirking this duty makes you unfit for sharing in the resources and protection of the tribe.

Know how to operate alone and in small groups. Resources are available for learning fireteam/squad-level tactics.
Subterfuge, ambush, explosives - force multipliers mean victory when manpower and resources are scarce.
Arm your mind, heart, and body alike.

This is not a video game. There's no magic potions or tonics that will heal a ripped-open leg, animal bite, or battle wound.
Respiratory distress, bullet/knife wounds, traumatic bleeding, sickness, broken bones, and animal attacks are all common.
Prepare.

Your tribe cares only about the people within reach of the campfire's light.
An uncooperative man must be truly valuable in some way for the tribe to tolerate his disruption to cohesion.
Most men are not that valuable.
Social skills will matter.

Modern man does not know how to hunt, gather, cultivate, store, or prepare safe, nourishing meals.
Luxury diets sustained by advanced supply chains will fall by the wayside.
Your ancestors didn't do juice cleanses, vegan, or gluten-free.

If your tribe does not have a basic grasp of plant cultivation, it will starve.
Grains, vegetables, fruits.
Soil composition, fertility, weed management, breeding, planting, in-season management, harvesting, and storage all matter.
Study up.

Buildings must be re-built. Weapons forged. Roads and infrastructure repaired. Sanitation systems cleaned and maintained.
Control of functioning resources is essential to survival of the tribe.
The engineers will be defended at any cost.

A man must know how to locate, store, purify, and manage supplies of potable water.
Three days without water vastly increase likelihood of death.
Your animals, your hygiene, and your health all require it.
A thirsty man is a dead man.

A man who cannot barter, sell, or arbitrage will not be able to advance the tribe's interests.
As tribes evolve and become sustainable, commerce will become important to building alliances, mutual defense, and quality of life improvement.

These are the basic factors upon which rebuilding society will hinge.
The life of a modern man is conducive only to dying in as much comfort as possible, having never truly lived as a part of this world's ecosystem.
Don't be weak fodder for the enemy or nature.
Be better.
