You've posted extensively how you despise where you live, how you feel in danger there, etc., and now you're making plans to flee...so why not move preemptively?

Much better to make plans rather than leaving in haste. It will cost less to leave at your own pace, rather than waiting for some "bugout" situation.

Why not move? BlackSkimmer Apr 2023 #14

I don't have money to move vercetti2021 Apr 2023 #16

I understand that, but how would it be easier in a sudden-onset crisis necessitating a bug-out bag? Chainfire Apr 2023 #20

That depends on how wide-spread the problem that you are bugging-out is. Chainfire Apr 2023 #19
