"When the clock strikes midnight on December 31, 1999, will you be ready?" Michael S. Hyatt believes that when the millennium comes, it's going to pack a wallop. He detailed the specifics of the Y2K computer problem in his bestselling book The Millennium Bug, which stirred up tremendous attention and discussion from people wondering how bad it's really going to be. To address this issue, The Y2K Personal Survival Guide offers contingency plans for whether the effects of Y2K last three days or a year. Organized in five sections: Information, Supplies, Shelter, Money, and Protection, the Survival Guide offers resource suggestions and tips on everything from how to rotate canned goods and stockpile food to securing an alternative source of heat. Much of this information would be helpful during any winter storm, but Hyatt is convinced that we are in for a major change of lifestyle, and his suggestions also include which items will be useful as barter fare once the monetary system has collapsed. Hyatt is serious about preparing people for the worst, even if it never comes to pass. Extremism aside, The Y2K Personal Survival Guide has plenty of helpful checklists and appendices, like "Where to Stash Your Cash and Other Valuables," to help you feel prepared for whatever the new year might bring. --Jodie Buller
