How Long?

  • Ironman92
    How long do you guess you and your family (roomates etc) could make it if you were for whatever reason confined in your living quarters with no outside assistance?

    Figuring only the amount of food and drinks you have no....no water, gas or electric assumed.

    I'd guess we have enough for around 6 weeks to stay alive.

    I'd probably last a day or two before I killed myself due to boredom.

    After those storms pushed through during the summer, I was out of electricity for four or five days and I was hating life.

    Probably a good while but I mean, who wants to live with no porn?

    I have a few cats to cook when things get really desperate. No idea how long I could last.

    there'd have to be the mother of all snow storms to confine us to our house, don't think I ever have to worry about that.

    Me and my fiance could probably make it like a month here in our apartment... we have way to much food/drinks here lol. We also have a charcoal grill. We have plenty of board games and books lol.

    .... between canned goods, dried food, bottled water, wood fire place ...... 2 to 3 months

    Over the year we have learned our lessons .... to be prepared.

    We have been in 3 or 4 situation where storms have cut off any type of movement, power and heat for days.
    The worst was in Perrysburg, Ohio winter of 1978 we had no power, heat or water for a week..

    Three days in my apartment. I have enough food for about two meals.

    Maybe a week at most. We have some lunch meat, chips, and snack food. Then when the frozen stuff thaws we could eat salmon for a day or 2 before it goes bad.
