Preppy to Prepper
According to National Geographic Channels quiz, "How Prepped Are You?" the answer in my situation is not at all. This quiz is based off the popular reality show "Doomsday Preppers", which centers on different people across the U.S. who all share in an obsession of being prepared for when the apocalypse arrives. I scored a mere 11 on the quiz, estimating my survival time to be about 1-2 weeks, and meanwhile the top scorer featured on the show received a 95 with an estimated survival time of 24 months. This quiz brought to light many factors of survival that never even crossed my mind, such as what kind of items I have available to barter, but also made me realize how paranoid some people are to actually obtain some of the items mentioned in the quiz, such as stocked bunkers, or getaway cars. Most importantly, I have learned that being a prepare is not for me, and I would prefer to live out the remainder of my days in the case of an apocalypse by mooching off the supplies of others.
