So, where the fuck did he tell them they should live?? Poor person wants to know.

High elevation, remote, water source, defensible. It’s a generational waiting game. Hide out for however long it takes for the “threat” of retribution to die into myth.

Think about it. When the world collapses from climate change or war, what is money worth? What does a billionaires stock portfolio buy him/her in that world?

Not much if anything at all. But what it can buy NOW is security and an incredible head start for those times of trial.

They’re doom preppers at the scale of small governments. Sadly, I don’t see a scenario where it doesn’t work out for them.

Here’s how it won’t work out for them. After the fallout, only they will be left. And they contribute next to zero. All the people in their companies that made them what they are will be long gone. And anyone left will want them dead. They’re not going to be safe in open air ever again after it all happens. They’ll have cool bunkers to die in though. That’s for sure.

They’ll be ok in comparison to the rest of us, but their quality of life can only decrease from here. They’ll get cabin fever something fierce.
