Most Americans honestly do not know how to survive if they suddenly couldn't run down to Wal-Mart and fill up their shopping carts. The truth is that we live during times when a disaster or an emergency could strike at any time. It is important to be prepared, and nobody is going to prepare for you. 
Do you believe that it is possible to live on twenty percent of the income that you make right now?
