Sure. And what you use to prepare are Allies, Contacts and other social advantages and a range of skills.

For difficult judgements perhaps, but plenty of it is also player decisions or things that you are assumed to automatically succeed at. For example, it is not difficult to figure out that you are better of witdrawing cash at the start, than using your credit card for every expense along the way when you know that people will start hunting you a day or so from now.
The default money you get by not having any Wealth disadvantages can also be very useful for preparations.
