Questions people ask

Is this a printed book?

No - it's an instant PDF. Print it at home on US Letter paper, or keep it on your phone.

Does it work where I live?

Yes. The guides are written for American homes in every state: gallons, °F, US weather and US stores.

Do I need to buy a lot of gear?

No. Most first steps use what's already in your house. When you're ready to buy, the guide shows what comes first.

Is this medical advice?

No. It's planning information. Talk to your doctor, pharmacist or equipment supplier about medicines and medical devices.

How do I get it?

Right after you pay: a download on the thank-you page, and an email with your download links. The links keep working.

How is this different from the Personal Plan?

A guide shows you how to get ready. The Personal Plan does the math for your household - your gallons, your days of food, your battery size and a shopping list.
