Concerned Citizens of the World,

It's fair to say that it's inevitable that civilization — as we know it — will collapse... one day. We hope that it will not be in our lifetime. But only an ostrich with its head buried three feet under the earth can be so optimistic. If you're reading this message, you already seeing the warning signs:

  • The Fall of Europe: Greece, Portugal, Spain, Ireland, the United Kingdom, Italy... The European Union is collapsing like a row of dominos.
  • Middle East Uprisings: Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Libya, Bahrain, Syria, Algeria, Jordan, Morocco, Lebanon... The Arab world will never be the same.
  • Wars on Top of Wars: Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Libya... All we need is a major conflict out of Iran or North Korea and World War III is upon us.
  • Fukushima Foreshadowing: What will we do when another another one of mankind's 422 nuclear reactors goes into meltdown? (Like the Diablo Canyon Power Plant built less than a mile from a 25km fault.)
  • You Can Already Hear the Dollar Going "Pop": Gas is up to $100 a barrel. Gold has surpassed $1800 an ounce. How long until the U.S dollar becomes worthless and the world plummets into economic collapse?
  • Millions May Starve: 44 million Americans need food stamps to stay alive. If the U.S. dollar collapses how will the government feed them?

The situation is grim. Most people will pull the bedsheets over their head. They'll plug their ears and pretend they can't hear the monster snarling under the bed. Others — like anybody who's read this far — will take positive action.

Nothing Short of a Miracle Can Save America or Europe

It's no wonder people are turning to religion. Troubling times are a wonderful prod to get us to anchor our lives in God. Nonetheless, our current predicament is not unheard of...

Mankind's history is full of such "purgings." Countless times have civilizations collapsed. When the turmoil is over, the survivors recreated a better society.

Another Renaissance May Be On the Horizon

The Italian Renaissance which followed the Black Death is a perfect example. By 1400, more than 75 million people perished. Europe's population was reduced by as much as 60%. Unable to understand what was happening, ignorant people began massacring Jews.

How many people died from the plague? How many died from the turmoil that followed? We may never know the real answer. But one thing is certain...

The cultural movement that followed brought about major changes on all fronts. Advances in science, literature, art, politics and religion paved the way for modern civilization.

No matter how bad things get... I think we can expect a similar renaissance.

Hopefully, mankind will not have to suffer such losses again. Technologies like the Internet may make all the difference. People like you and me are able to be warned about what's coming and shown how to prepare.

Be Part of a Crazy Group of People Who Are
Determined to Survive Whatever Is Coming

To this end, I have formed the Survival Joe Mastermind Club. Each month you call into a teleseminar where I will interview an urban survivalist. You can attend the Mastermind by using a regular telephone. For the last 30 minutes of the 90-minute Mastermind Meeting members will be able to ask questions.

You'll also receive a recording afterwards — so no worries if you can not attend live.

The Monthly Mastermind will keep you not only informed, but motivated. Without motivation and the right company you will not have the drive to keep on preparing for the unthinkable.

We'll Keep You Thinking About the Unthinkable

What is coming definitely falls into the "unthinkable" category. But you need to keep thinking about it. You need to prepare. Most people won't. Most people are too scared.

But Survival Joe Mastermind Club members are not scared of what's coming. They are preparing.

You need that type of support. You need to belong to this type of tribe.

Maybe the world will avoid the disaster that appears to be coming. Nonetheless, being a Mastermind Club member will help you prepare for the more "familiar" crises that befall people every day. Personal trials like unemployment, illness, and accidents. Natural disasters like earthquakes, tornadoes, and floods.

The Survival Joe Mastermind Club isn't just for people preparing for a future catastrophe. The Mastermind Club will help people already in a "survival situation." Particularly a personal financial crisis where you need to reduce your expenditures and adopt alternative ways of making income, obtaining food, and staying sheltered.

Who The Survival Joe Mastermind Club Is For
(And Who it is Not)

  Techniques, strategies and examples shared in the Survival Joe Mastermind Club are perfect for the "average Joe" (or "Jane"). Anybody who is busy earning money and caring for a family with limited time, resources, and support.
     
  This is NOT for people living alone in a cabin in Northern Alaska surrounded by four years of pork n' beans. You're of course welcome to become a member. I suspect, however, that the Mastermind Club will not meet your apocalyptic standards.
     
  The Mastermind Club is particularly suited to men and women who have children they need to take care of. I have three kids and realize that surviving a disaster with young ones requires more forethought than surviving it alone.
     
  The Survival Joe Mastermind Club is NOT for a bachelor who spends most of his time shooting up zombies on his Xbox. Again, you're welcome to join. But we'll be talking about real world preparedness strategies. No "I Am Legend" fantasy discussions.
     
  The Mastermind Club is for those who think for themselves. They check facts. They get their news from alternative media sources like The Trends Research Institute.
     
  The Mastermind Club is NOT for people who accept whatever the government, media or other establishments tell them. Mastermind members look to CNN for today's weather and no more. They might read the New York Times for its book reviews. Such corporations are regarded as nothing more than propaganda machines.
     
  Survival Joe Mastermind Members are only "average Joes" on the outside. On the inside they believe that God has a purpose for their life. They might not use the word God. We don't discriminate against any faith. But Mastermind Members answer to a Higher Power and Intelligence.
     
  Atheists who think there is no real purpose to existence won't make a good fit for the Mastermind Club. Why? Because they probably won't have the drive necessary to survive. In order to survive you need something greater than yourself (or even your family) to live for.
     
  Members realize that a collapse of the current system may be the only way to save humanity. We are stuck in a rut of consumerism and environmental destruction. We are seeing the destruction of family life and local communities. Hitting a "reset" button may be the only answer.
     
  People who think that the goal of existence revolves around adoring celebrities, taking their kids to fast food chains, and getting more and more stuff they can't afford probably won't enjoy becoming a member of the Survival Joe Mastermind Club.
     

Do you ever feel like you live in the Twilight Zone? It's so blatantly obvious that the world is falling to pieces. Yet when you try to discuss your concerns with those around you, you only get blank stares or platitudes. If that describes your situation, then The Survival Joe Mastermind Club is for you. You will be in good company. No sheeple would have even found this site. Even if a few did, they'd never join.

I don't necessarily expect members to meet all the characteristics of an "ideal" Survival Joe Mastermind Club member... but the above list should help you decide whether this is something you want to be part of or not.

What Exactly Goes On During
A Survival Joe Mastermind Meeting?

  • Prepper Paradise: How many preppers live in your neighborhood? Not many, I bet! The Mastermind Meetings give you the opportunity to asks question of the guest speaker. You'll be able to interact with survivalists you'd never have a chance to meet otherwise.
  • Realistic Application: Only real Survival Joes are being interviewed. Not merely "experts" who talk but don't act. This way you get the nitty-gritty details about HOW they actually prepare. Find out not just what they do... but how they pull it off.
  • Focus, Drive & Courage: Mastermind meetings are informal, unedited and unrehearsed. This approach gives you a valuable glimpse into the mental and emotional mindset of the prepper being interviewed. It's one thing to know what to do in a crisis. It's another to have the focus, drive, and courage to act without hesitation. Listen and re-listen to the Monthly Recordings. Some of the guest's mental mettle will rub off on you.
  • One Survival Plan Does NOT Suit Everybody: It would be nice if we could write just ONE survival plan and everybody could use it. But your situation is unique. There are certain strategies, for example, that will not work if you have a screaming baby to take care of. Whatever your situation, you need to come up with a personalized plan. By exposing yourself to many different points of views — via each Monthly Mastermind Meeting — you can extract the gems that apply to your situation.
  • Simplicity Rules: The "average Joe" is often busy trying to survive the week — no less the collapse of life as we know it. That's why we focus on strategies that produce the most results for the least effort. What needs to be done is not complicated. And even a little preparedness knowledge can save you much suffering.
  • Lions of Determination: We let the media bleat about the problems going on in the world. In the Survival Joe Mastermind Club we roar about the solutions. Each Mastermind Meeting focuses on what positive actions we can take. The clock is ticking. We don't have time for finger pointing and complaining.

The Type of Questions I Ask
The Urban Survivalist of the Month

Each Monthly Mastermind, I'm going to the ask the guest the following types of questions. You get to listen to the answers live, uncensored, unedited. If you can't attend live you'll be able to listen to the recording as many times as you want. Here's the type of real-life information I'm going to distill from each month's guest:

  • Sensible Security: How do you plan to protect your family against riot & looters? How about hostile and hungry neighbors who didn't prepare?
  • Secret Stockpiling: How are you currently storing food, water and medicine without anybody knowing? How do you budget it?
  • Future Finances: How are you protecting your finances? What type of assets do you have in place that you think will survive a collapse of civilization?
  • Apathy Avoidance: How do you avoid being sucked into the apathy of the people around you?
  • 7-Day Survival Plan: What's your plan for surviving the first 7 days of a collapse?
  • Saving For Tomorrow: How are you reducing your cost of living today? How much do you spend on preparedness supplies each month?
  • Live Together or Die Alone: How are you working with others in your community so that you are not the only one left standing?
  • Bartering Brainstorms: What goods do you plan to use to barter for other items you may need in a disaster situation?
  • Survival Skills: What skills do you currently possess that will serve you in a post-industrial situation? What skills are you currently learning or planning on learning?
  • Spiritual Center: How have spiritual beliefs helped you acknowledge what's coming and take positive actions to prepare?

Plus, of course, for the last 30-minutes of each meeting, members can ask their own questions or get more details about questions already answered.

Just For Trying The Mastermind Club
I'll Give You The Following 2 Bonus Gifts...

(Bonus Gift #1)
Food Crisis 2: How to Prepare For
A Long Term-Food Shortage

Food Crisis 2
As Mastermind Club member you'll receive Food Crisis 2: How to Prepare for a Long-Term Food Shortage. In this 30-page guide I explain...

  • How you can prepare to use survival gardening strategies for a food crisis situation.
  • How to find the proper seeds (most seeds will only keep you fed for one year).
  • How to store the seeds (so they won't rot). Seeds may be worth more than gold one day.
  • What type of plants to grow. Man does not live off summer tomatoes alone.

The book concludes with a question and answer section. Click here for complete details.

(Bonus Gift #2)
Survival Gardening Audio Interview

Cover to Survival Gardening Audio Interview with Ben Stiebel
You'll also receive an interview I conducted with organic gardener Ben Stiebel. This 23-minute recording reveals life-saving information on how to live off a crisis garden. The interview includes...

  • Fertilizer and soil quality tips. If the soil is no good, it doesn't matter what you do... your garden will fail.
  • Animal control strategies. In one night animals can steal a month's worth of food.
  • 5 strategies to ensure you first garden keeps your family fed.
  • How to keep blights and pests from eating up all your hard work.

You may already have a garden. Or you might be waiting until the supermarket shelves are bare. Either way, this audio should provide some valuable insight and inspiration. Click here for complete details.

Membership includes digital access to the MP3 recording of the Monthly Survival Joe Mastermind Meeting. It includes a PDF of the Monthly Survival Sheet. And it includes both bonus gifts: Food Crisis 2 and Survival Gardening.

A Safer Investment Than Stocks, Bonds and GICs

The day appears to be coming when the money you'll use to join the Mastermind will become useless. In the event of a major crisis, you may even lose any survival items you store away. But you will not lose the knowledge you gain from attending the Monthly Survival Joe Mastermind Club (or listening to the recordings).

Commit the Monthly Survival Sheets to memory and no one can ever take the knowledge away from you.

Most people blow more money each week on junk food, cable TV, and various fleeting diversions. I hope you'll be different. Put your money into a responsible investment towards your family's future. It will prepare you for tomorrow, while giving you a great sense of security, confidence and purpose today.

60 Day 100% Money Back Guarantee

At any time during your membership you can receive a refund on any charges made to your account for the last 60 days. So if you sign up today and decide you want a refund after attending two Mastermind Meetings, you'll receive all your money back. No questions. No hassles.

You Don't Want To Become The Next Survivorman,
You Just Want to Take Care of Your Family

The featured guest for each Monthly Survival Joe Mastermind Meeting is not going to be like the people you see on television who jump naked into icy lakes in sub-zero temperatures. Nothing wrong with those extreme survivalists. You can learn a lot by watching their programs.

The Survival Joe Mastermind Club, on the other hand, features interviews with "average Joes." Householders whose credibility is built upon their own preparedness activities. This isn't their full-time job. No one is paying them to do what they do. It's just part of their life.

Likewise, I live in the suburbs of a big American city. I have three kids, a wife, and not a whole lot of free time. Most of my income is from a home-based writing business.

I'm not living out in some survival retreat at an undisclosed location in the Rocky Mountains.

If a disaster happens, I'll be in the midst of it. Just like you. So I'm going to be asking questions that apply to the type of life we are leading. This isn't a place for discussing an ultra-ideal preparedness situation that few of us can pull off.

Average Joes Secretly Living the Lives of Survival Joes

We can only hope that when it is all over the world will be a better place. More and more people are waking up to the dangers of our corrupt governments and the lies of mainstream media.

Modern civilization may crumble. It may not. Regardless, the responsible family man or woman realizes the need to prepare for the unexpected. The dollar may crash the economy or an asteroid might crash into your neighborhood. Either way, you need to be at least somewhat ready.

You need to be able to keep your family fed during a food shortage... sheltered during a natural disaster... safe during civil unrest... and healthy during an epidemic.

Each month, as a member of the Survival Joe Mastermind Club, all these bases (and more) will be covered. You'll get information, inspiration and the nitty-gritty of how other average Joes are secretly living the life of Survival Joes. Find out how they are doing the responsible and mature thing — devoting some time and resources to ensure the future of their family is taken care of.
