How can I improve my National Geographic doomsday prepper score?

I can go as high as 45, 2–4 months from my living conditions. How high can you go?

by maxing out all the sliders

It is also funny, and bullshit, that this test, at most, gives you 20 months, even though you have large amounts of land, regenerating sources of food and water, tons of ammuntiom, fortifications, and are and are surrounded by expert survivalists and a crack team of swat operatives.

@ragingloli I agree. I should be able to survive a tad longer than my results said. This test also acts like a zombie invasion test, in which it would be correct to assume you won’t live very long, but without zombies I should make it more than four months. Plus I have means of communication, should that not count for something? I mean if I can’t take care of myself (which I can, although not indefinitely but more than four months) someone else will, supposing they don’t want to kill me.

Cheat

I’d be toast in a month if I was lucky; two weeks i more likely.

Standard guidance for an earthquake event in Northern California is “be prepared for three days without any aid”.

I scored 6 which means I will survive less than one week.

Do they know something we don’t? I can survive indefinitely, I’m a big fan of Bear Gyllis and Dual Survivor. Done leaned me how to eat bugs, drink my own pee, and if things go south anytime soon, I always keep a can or two of lighter fluid around. Hell with that rubbing two sticks together crapola.

@NomoreY_A – FYI if you run out of lighter fluid. “rubbing two sticks together” isn’t a good next step. Go with the rock and knife method.
