Thanks for sharing. I like #6. I've been trying to get on this path for about 3 years now.

Column 6: Investing and buying

Every euro in your bank account represents speculative matter for the big financiers who play at the stock market casino with your savings. Do you really want to lend money to those who think only of reducing you to the stage of a simple slave to a competitiveness that only benefits the coffers of the rich? In addition, recent examples have taught us that in the event of an economic crisis, our assets could be frozen overnight by a State anxious to bail out bank coffers "too big to fail" with the money of those who are. "Too small to protest". So only place what is strictly necessary in the bank. With the rest - in addition to your reserve of liquid and precious metals - first try to become the owner of the property in which you live in order to become independent, then, buy anything that can help you get rid of dependence on the current economic system: become your own craftsman by equipping yourself with robust, solid and easily repairable equipment. Then, don't forget that in times of crisis, there is nothing like a local economy. For example, buy agricultural land to either rent it to nearby farmers or to cultivate it yourself. Also think about helping artisans in your neighborhood by supporting them in their attempts to set up or expand their businesses; you will help them break free from bank addiction while making loyal friends. nothing like a local economy.

Ayatollah also had a guy on recently named the woodsman that talked about going off grid.
