Deimos Tel`Arin – Pre-placing the items is a great idea We will almost always forget the most important thing during an emergency

Azuwachan – agree.. simplicity is the best. Most of the time, people will think they will need all those thing to survive, when actually we really don’t. One thing I’m still working on is the number of clothes to bring

Pocket – I think we can have one of those earthquake kit here. Not for earthquake but for travelling.

And about that suggestion of extra things to be put in my travelling kit, I will definitely do that. Thanx bro

Jenz Iggo – A good point. It is an illusion really that we control money, when the fact is money control us. We buy using credit card, and in the end we are striving just to pay off that interest applied on us

We are stressed to buy new fancy things simply because we let money control us, not we control money.

Financial independence – as some might long for – is really not about having all the money in the world, but having the intelligence to spend money wisely.

yup, you’re right. we don’t need a lot of things, in fact many of them were bought and in the end we did not use it.
for me, if my house’s going to collapse in 30 seconds, I’m gonna save my mp3 and laptop. that’s it.
sometimes I see my friends bring a lot of stuffs when we go travel, and it’s tiring. really, it is, huha~

p/s: simplicity is the best– sometimes

[You have 30 seconds to get your stuff before the door closed. What 10 items will you take?]

This is hard. I don’t think 30 seconds is enough to collect 10 items scattered all over the house, unless the 10 items are already nicely packed inside a bag.

If I am to pre-place 10 items in a bag for events such as this, I would say:

1. Wallet (Cash, IC, Credit Cards etc)
2. Passport
3. Notebook Computer
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.

As for 4 – 10, I dunno.
