I plan to buy some land and a cabin in the rocky mountains, far away from any big cities (er...Denver) with a handpumped well. After that, what you need is:
battle rifle (ar15 for me, no $ cause I already have it), for people who do find me and aren't nice :D
5000rnds .223 (you have to run out sometime, and that is only $600)
Japanese Wakisuzi (sp?, short katana), as a general purpose/fighting blade (about the size of a machete, but blade infinetely stronger) ($1400)
reloading equipment ($900?)
10/22 or other 22 (most already have)
30000 rounds of .22 ($600 worth, not much $)
BDUs, heavy cold gear, etc. ($500 per person)
$500 of canned goods/non perishable items
but $5000 is not enough really. You need things like a very large kerosene tank, you have to make sure your lamps/vehicles/stoves can run on kerosene (or wood for stove). You need fences, traps, premade explosives, fishing ponds, gieger counters, work animals (dog, horse), hay, etc. It would cost more than $5000 for a nice SHTF senario.
