Disaster Planning Time is NOW!

Living in Florida, we are ALWAYS faced with planning for disasters. TODAY there is a large tropical depression brewing in the Atlantic Ocean that might have our name on it. Whether it is hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, terrorism, or a just a big storm, it is crucial to keep our home financial, computer, and business data safe. There are great resources online to help preserve this crucial data.

AxcessPoints is a secure online disaster planning tool full of resources that help individuals and families better organize critical personal, medical and financial information and minimize the impact of a natural disaster. They provide an individualized one-of-a-kind Emergency Toolkit, an interactive calculator that helps families create a comprehensive emergency preparedness kit. The Toolkit calculates the right level of supplies and other necessary items by factoring in age, gender, disabilities and animals, including pets or other animals.

The information is highly secure, and users can choose to share sections from their plan with other family members or trusted advisers. I really like that you have 30 days to try it for free - they don't make you give them a credit card - it is really a free trial. Hurricane season seems like a great time to start with this - so I have signed up to try it - consider doing it for yourself. We have a lot more hurricane season to go!
