In the near future, this may be your family's most important "insurance"
Only a small part of the Y2K problems may come in early January 2000. Wise people will 'insure' themselves for months, remembering that they get to keep the 'premiums' if nothing untoward happens.
The earlier you purchase and begin warehousing supplies, the better off you and others will be, because your early action will alert manufacturers to increase production. The more that our governments delay advising people to look after themselves, the worse will be the panic, and the greater the potential loss of life.
If you wait until autumn - as most people will - it may be too late. It seems that electrical generators, for instance, are nearly all gone. "Better to enjoy life as it is without thinking too much about the future, eh?"
Human nature is strange
We spend thousands of dollars each year insuring our lives, our homes, and our cars against catastrophes which have only the barest chance of happening in the next year or two. Yet hardly anyone will 'insure' themselves against Y2K - where the odds of something bad really happening are probably a hundred times greater - until it's too late: autumn 1999. Squirrels, sensing a hard winter, squirrel away extra food. But not many of us will. And we who do, will be asked to share.
Logically, don't you think that the odds are far greater that you'll suffer because of Y2K than being injured in a car crash, or having your home burn? If you won't prepare for Y2K, why would you ever insure your car or home? If you insure your life and property, why wouldn't you take out Y2K 'insurance'? The best insurance coverage includes having neighbours who are fully 'insured' too!
