But you can you partner with others who are growing gardens and help protect one another? Or go stand guard for a farmer and his family?
One of the things I ran into out at BOL2 is the number of people that would have to stand guard, to cover the entire property and prevent squatters or a scouting party checking us out, would make the production inadequate to sustain all of us.
Now maybe if it was located in say, Kansas and I was growing wheat, I could build some guard towers and cover it, while others worked, but, with trees and brush, it is very difficult to have adequate guards AND still feed everyone with what you grow.
A modified "phone tree" might be more of a practical solution than physically trying to keep everyone out.
At Gary’s home I was envisioning a group of folks who are relatively close enough to help one another with defense. Contact would be via radio. Gary would have to hold whoever off for 5 or 10 minutes to give the others time to get there.
As far as working for a farmer? That plan is one Gary is very capable of implementing. Can’t imagine not being able to find enough folks to help protect a farm.

The locals are fairly close together but getting older and less capable of defending much of anything. If it gets hard here, I will pack up things and get to an area surrounded by woods and water where I can hunt and fish, but far away enough that I do not have to worry much about the squatters or thieves finding us. They will eventually thin themselves out, the weather will do the same, lack of food and water will drive them into the cities and weaken the majority enough so they will not survive a single winter...There are only 4 families I can trust to be able to help us do anything and I am only sure that 2 could survive like me in the woods...
Small time survival with good equipment for a while but no meds, cleaning facilities or re-supplies.
Nobody will live forever, not even with no SHTF problems...live free, Gary
I was looking at other instances. At BOL 2 the smallest lot within 3 miles, is 10 acres and unoccupied. The rest are at least 20 up to the one to my immediate south which is 2,000.. Many of these are cattle grazing leases or timber plots, without residents. It takes me 20 minutes at a fast walk down the road to my closest full time neighbor. The other neighbor, it is half an hour, through the forest and through 2 gullies creeks (tactically, very dangerous). Our group will pretty much be on their own.
Mutual aid might work for a community of "gentleman's farms" where you have a population density of 2-3 people per 5-20 acres (like bol1). You get much larger than that or in a very rural area and you run into manpower and logistical issues.

The most likely raiding action will occur with a pick-up for loading and get away.
Old people can do a drive-by shooting at the truck and leave.
That should end any raiding party.
Be sure the engine is not damaged. Tires yes, engine no.

We have a few more banks on the ropes. I'm sure the next bank runs will collapse a few more this summer.
Be ready when Ukraine is overrun.

...And the Fed is going to raise rates another 1/4 point ensuring that more banks fail.
They are all going to fail except for a chosen few. All planned.

I have also noticed that the rate of inflation they are putting out there, does not jibe with experience. Not even close!
Companies have gotten tricky as well. The price is the same but, you get an ounce or two less than before.
As each day passes the inflation is causing a little more downward in our spiral of financial collapse with little chance of it stopping .

I know there's a lot of doom and gloom out there, but financially things look pretty good to me. Bank savings rates are up, CD rates are up, bond rates look good, gold is up to $2030. Even drawing out enough $$ to live on for the year, the return on my investments is higher than I need to live on. True, prices on everything is UP, but our return more than covers these increased costs. For us personally we're doing good. Mostly it's because we made good financial choices over the years.
Great!

I realize to some I probably sound overly optimistic, or a fool. I've kept my eyes and ears open about current events and investment opportunities over my lifetime. I'm always looking for ways to protect my assets and how to grow my investments. Right now I think it's time to buy more land. There is still money available for purchasing farm/ranch land.
It is definitely time to buy more farm land! Land will hold its value if you don’t overpay for it.

One flaw that I can see but it doesn't nullify the concept.
"All Silver Dollar pricing shall be the lowest advertised price for a single U.S. Silver Dollar as advertised by jmbullion.com on the day of the transaction or the day the payment is remitted.”
In a grid down situation, how will anyone know what price jmbullion.com is charging?

You are asking a great question Doc.
Then you will have to improvise and compromise. When businesses go out of business a lot of them will fail.
About 20 minutes ago I added a third note to the Rant which reads:
Note 3: You can also tie the payment to the inflation rate as published by shadowstats.com. The problem is you have to pay about $150 per year to see their current information. But by doing it this way you remove part of the silver rocket ride increase because its price has been menipulated over many years. You can also remove the rocket ride increase by giving the customer a refund or amended payments that are more equitable. But you still control the purse strings.
Shadow stats will not close during all the chaos.
