The Gear Goblin: Why Buying More Stuff Isn’t a Survival Plan

Описание: Every prepper has a “Gear Goblin” inside them — the voice that whispers: “Just buy one more tool. One more gadget. One more shiny thing.”
But in a real crisis, gear doesn’t save you. Skills, logistics, and discipline do.

In this episode, The Rational Panic Owl dismantles one of the most expensive and seductive prepping myths:
👉 The belief that “more gear = more prepared.”

Whether it’s tactical flashlights, knives, tents, radios, generators, or the 17th multitool you definitely didn’t need, this episode exposes how gear obsession becomes a distraction…
and a liability.

You’ll learn:
🪓 Why owning tools isn’t the same as mastering them
📦 How overbuying creates clutter, confusion, and false confidence
💰 Why money spent wrong hurts your real survival chances
🧠 The psychology behind prepping consumerism
🔧 What gear actually matters — and what doesn’t
🏕️ How to build a smarter, leaner, more realistic kit

If your “prepping plan” is mostly Amazon boxes stacked in a closet… this one might sting.
But it’ll also save you time, money, and maybe your life.
