SHTF Groups

It must be a cohesive group with clearly communicated, commonly shared, deep values. Think back to the old communities of the West in our country's early days!

Also, I think everyone in the group should have equal investment to the cause, whether it is monetary investment, time investment, supplies, whatever. In addition to what Sellersm said, everyone in the group needs to embody the same level of mental and physical commitment, or it might not hold up.

Now, who wants to buy some acreage, split it into parcels, and build some homes for likeminded individuals? I bet if somebody did this right, they could screen the buyers and "build" a group that could work, right?

I consider my close friends my family so I guess I'm a hybrid of sorts lol. Besides it'll help have a couple more people with security and different peoples knowledge to last longer if need be.

Just started reading this thread, and this post was on page one, but want to respond to it before I move on. This is what I've been thinking about recently. There's strength in numbers.

Probably, as I read on, others will have run with this idea.

Yes there is. My idea of land is much different then yours, negating a group land buy.

What you think you need as will everyone else may not be what i an looking for. The "Lets BO to the mountains" "Plains" out east 2 miles etc is great, however get the members of this board [pick 5] and see if you all agree what the best land scenario would be. I don't mind helping out or being helped out. If i am not the sole owner of the land ideas and goals will vary.
