I'm curious as to what impact this will have on the economy and how to plan for it in a way that doesn't involve stockpiling food and bullets (not that there's anything wrong with being prepared!)

The funny thing about food is in less than a day it turns to crap.

Definitely food for thought :)

I haven't partnered in this manner, but may in the future as a lender or capital partner, so feel free to take this with a grain of salt, but this is how I would think about it ... a couple ways in my mind to skin this cat:Comparable returns: What are others private money investors in similar situations getting return wise?

Before we paint our interior rooms, we use a mixture of Dawn dish washing liquid, white vinegar and water, particularly if there is grease, food or nicotine stains.

Food for thought.  

Quah I was actually in ,Kuala Lumpur for 5 days in 2011, then jumped over to Singapore as well ( made a few trips)( incredible food).

Plus, they have food.  

Family & friends mean well but unless they've been there, take what they say with a grain of salt.

You've given me more food for thought.
