Definitely, if I were forced out of my home, I would be able to hit the ground running with minimal fear. I know what to do to improve my situation when I've been dealt a crap hand thanks to scouts, and how to deal with others around me even when they are acting crazy.

Many other people would not make it long term in such a situation, and I'm not trying to imply it'd be an enjoyable life, but I do wish more people had skills to survive the environment just outside their homes.
