I remember when we were having power cuts, instrest rates surching, escalating food and petrol prices. You learn to pull in your belts. If you have a car and there are a couple of people going the same way as you , offer lifts and then split the cost. Don't use you electricity if you don't have too. Switch your geyser off in the evening after you've all bathed and then on in the morning. Start growing your own veggies if you have a garden. Cut down on eating meat. Limit your eating out & junk food. If you're a smoker, try cut your smoking by half.

It's frustrating when you know that this problem is caused by banks, not because there is a lack of resource.

"GET OFF THE GRID" & FREE YOURSELF from UTILITY BILLS - HERE's HOW
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/THE_PARADISE_REPORTER/message/3635
http://www.alternativepowervideo.com/
This guy, Charlie Steward, says don't believe the "professionals" who tell you it costs $60,000 to $80,000 to "get off the electricity grid." This guy did it all himself and says, NO WAY does it cost anywhere near that. He's dying to teach people how to do it themselves so he has a DVD with full instructions. Sounds great if you're one of those "testosterone types."
He has a 5,000 square foot house that is not connected to the electric company. --(NICE HOUSE, too. Go see a photo of it at the above link.) -- There are no utility bills - no electric bill - no water bill - OFF THE GRID.
His family has all major appliances plus computers, tvs, and printers. PLUS the heating bill for this house is less than $10 per year!!!etc.

Oh, and Amen to what "Antichrist" said about banksters vs. no real lack of resources.

As far as occupations, this is not nearly as "noble" as nursing, but lawyers also will never go out of business!
There will always be rich insurance companies.
There will always be people having auto accidents (unless/until they take our vehicles away and put everyone in the compound).
There will always be people who "slip and fall," etc.
(PI attorneys for the above three).
There will always be crimes (hence, criminal lawyers needed).
There will always be judges hearing cases.
etc. etc.

"Granny" of the "Granny Warriors" website: http://www.grannywarriors.com/ has non-GMO seeds for sale, along with a Granny's Old Fashioned Survival book (how to can your food, home health remedies, that sort of thing):
Granny's Can-It Cook-It book:
This is not a professionally written book, it is a compliation of people and their family recipes plus copied from a 1890 Book for new brides. You will find formulas for soap, paint, all manner of good items to know how to make and do in times of need.
Yes you can preserve fresh meat by canning. So easy and so delicious and not full of all the preservatives we all consume today. I have put this book together from my own experience growing up in a slower less modern time and with help from Bette and other Grannies who have lived through the depression, war and inflation. I hope you will all enjoy going back in time and bringing it to your life now.

Stock up on baking soda with a pinch of peroxide (both very cheap) for brushing your teeth! Works better than foaming, toxic, flouride-ridden commercial toothpastes. (And don't forget the Chinese imported toxic toothpastes...)
And LOL about wear your shoes every other day. Ha. Move South and wear flip-flops year round, lol. They are dirt cheap. In the "old days" you could get a pair for like 23-cents from Pic 'N Save (a long-standing Florida dimestore/drugstore who went out of biz when Big Bad Walmart came to power)...
