If you are an American, and live in an earthquake region, you have probably dealt with issues of insurance. But the American experience is far better than that of Turkey. Which lacked affordable earthquake insurance for much of its population. With catastrophic results in recent years. The book explains an attempt to remediate this sorry state of matters. By the forming of an insurance pool,that basically acts as an insurerof first resort for many Turks.



We see how the fund had to explain in a marketing campaign the need for insurance to the Turkish public. And how there was a gradual increase in public confidence in the viability of the entire concept. Political tensions are also studied, exemplified by minimal support from the major parties. It is unclear why this has been so.

With the recent push here in California for "Disaster Preparedness" month I picked up one of these kits, not really thinking much about it.But after I looked through it, I realized that I can actually sleep better at night knowing that I've got enough supplies to last me and my loved ones a couple days when our next big earthquake/fire/hurricane hits (or if the black hole in the financial markets opens up any further).



I would strongly recommend buying one of these.Hopefully you will never need it, but it will still be the best money you've ever spent.Think about it.

Excellent packaging.Though we haven't had to use the kit yetwe're relieved to know that we have a plan and all the items to survive.

This emergency kit is a joke.



First of all, I paid $130 for it just a few days ago and received my order today. Now I see they just lowered the price to $109.25. Seriously? This kit should be $50, if that. Someone literally threw in packets of water into ziploc bags (about $8 worth), a few packets of food rations, some candles, some plastic "blankets", and the smallest and cheapest first aid kit I've seen. The crank radio flashlight is a nice feature, but you can buy one for less than $20.



I think the supplier literally went to an Army/Navy surplus store and threw these items into a small, basic backpack. So you know what? You should do the same rather than waste your money.

This kit is just water, a couple of "cakes" of food rations,5 tiny candles,a tiny first aid kit, and a cheap crank radio.For $100.00?I bought 2 and just found out that I can not return them! Find one with water, food bars, tent, a life size first aid kit, and some more survival type tools, hygiene things, etc.Keep looking-not this one.NO RETURNS????!!!!!How rotten is that.I am very angry now.
