Yeah, a bug-out bag is a funny idea.
When people talk about what could be done in a collapse I usually tell them to buy some land with a water source, build a house, grow vegetables, etc.
They always look at me like I'm crazy - "do you know much a house costs" etc.
Ok, point taken but then what the hell is with a BOB ?
This assumes you're living in your flat in the city or something, and will use the content of the BOB to get to your safe house in the middle of nowhere.
So not only it does involve having a house, and water and food, but also that it's not your primary location.
Well how much would that cost now ?
I can definitely get the appeal of getting many cool gadgets though, but there's no need to rationalize it behind some funny idea like a BOB - just admit you wanted some cool gadgets
