Those people who have the various resources including; sensible thinking, good health , guns food ,water,sanitation, shelter, medical provisions and barter goods, will survive most catastrophic events.
Chaos will reign,various gangs will join together using brute thinking and fire power. Those surviving will be in pockets of habitable areas. Problems of overcrowding, lack of the above provisions would lead to disease and depression. Would you and your loved ones want to survive in these conditions?

You are right on target with your thoughts. Bartering will be especially important. Gold also will help with the bartering process.......plus any other basic goods you mention above.
Cities would not be a good place to dwell, in my humble opinion.
Alas, at our age.......we would not survive as well as the young.
(I still remember what devastation hit the elderly during Katrina; both in hospitals, nursing homes and out in the streets, on bridges, etc., without water, food, transportation.....a horrific memory, to say the least....and that was a natural disaster, not a terrorist attack, etc., etc.)
