If I had a dollar for every disaster prepper I've seen in the USA that has many thousands of rounds of ammunition, and none of the following:

a) water purification equipment with supplies/filter changes good for 6+ months of continuous use

b) a stockpile of the most common antibiotics and medical supplies (essentially what you could get spending $700 on a comprehensive first aid kit plus $300-400 of drugs that will require periodic replacement as they expire).

c) knowledge or tools and supplies related to implementing off grid photovoltaic or wind power systems, but lots of gasoline or diesel generators.

d) $400 goose down sleeping bags, 4-season camping equipment, but they do have lots of tactical clothing and accessories, plate carriers, dropleg holsters and such
