We started our neighborhood watch about 9 years ago. Using that as a starting point we got to know who is and who isn’t worth a damn. From that initial group we built a small cadre of like minded folks we are reasonably sure we can depend on when the time comes.
Nothing is 100% of course, but it’s a good start.

So true Kart. Desparate people do desparate things. Selco is right in that you really will not be able to help other people when the SHTF.
Mr. GG2 and I have gone around about this several times. I am a naturally generous person and it took me a long time to harden my heart on this subject. When things get really bad you have to take care of your family and everyone else is on their own.

The biggest danger for those who survive the first month will be the roving packs of cannibals.

When SHTF, I mean real SHTF, most of the people will not like you because you are prepared, people will hate you, even if you help them. They will hate you because you are prepared and you have food, water, weapon and shelter for you and your family, and they do not have anything like that.Just like America is hated even while other countries are cashing bazillion dollar aid checks from us. Lesson long learned.

That Duke post was eye opening, I didn’t know about that source, I may use it myself for some classes.

Before I began participating in local meetup groups I probably had 2 semi-close, work-related friends in this world. Now I've got countless prepper friends from all walks of life spread across the country. The invitations to learning evenings and hunting trips have been non-stop. And for the most part these are some of the finest people I've ever known. ... FWIW. :)
Of course they have these groups for virtually any topic you can imagine.

Boy, in SHTF as a freckled red head I’m pretty well toast aren’t I?

We used to have a guy on the prepper threads who would brag about how he’d rob each and every one of us of our hard-earned preps. The personal way in which he did that was downright creepy!
On one of those, when he was harrassing a mother and telling her how he’d torture her kids and use her for a plaything, I offered to let him have all my jars of home-canned foods that didn’t process correctly.
He hasn’t been seen since.

My suggestion would be to sound like you’re curious about prepping but don’t know where to start. People will give you advice, some good and some bad, but if you’re always the newbie, they’re less likely to think of you when they need somebody to mooch off of.

“The biggest danger for those who survive the first month will be the roving packs of cannibals.”
Roving implies they will get off their dead azz and do something. Not going to happen.
To my son at a track meet “Why do people here run so fast and walk so slow?”
