My American and Canadian brothers (and others too) make sure if you can (depending on your circumstances) to have $2-3000 in cash at home at all times. And food, much more then usually, say few cartons of canes of tuna, ham...Make sure when you buy it to be " good until 2011" or later.

Breaking and entering is going to become a really profitable business... Last time we got broken into they took a laptop that wasn't even worth the £200 I paid for it second-hand, let alone in the stolen-goods market. Losing £2,000 in cash would really have pissed me off...

That's next...buy a gun (lucky Americans already have one haha).Really at some point in our Serbian crises  we had to buy gun on a black market.We never even thought about having a gun before but criminals now used to brake the house while people are inside so that they can torture them to tell them where money and valuables are.There were drastic cases where for example whole family (including dog) was tortured and brutally killed in their apartment. We had a dog but at that point we had to buy gun.I am a Serb (haha) and forgive me for this but I would rather kill (and no blink) then to see my children being killed.
I really can't believe that I had to go live on the other side of the world to experiance all that hell again.Still hope that Australia will somehow avoid it but I do not trust it...

The ravings of Wall Street types are the last thing I'm listening to. They're self-righteously projecting the chaos of their little world collapsing onto everything else.

you are the media you consume.
