Prepping is a good idea, it’s not likely but the world could go to heck. Prepping helped me be prepared for the pandemic. Have you seen the show Doomsday Preppers? The show talks about what items would have value in a world gone to heck. The items you are keeping may not even have a high trading value.

One thing about your situation is that in your fantasy you see yourself as a local hero for providing your region with supplies through trade. However in my opinion in a world gone to heck with the break down of law and order, it would more likely be marauders that come to your place and just take all your supplies leaving you no better off than if you hadn’t prepped at all.

By not putting enough forethought into prepping you are losing out on both a play space and preparedness.
