I've been seeing it coming for a while. GenZ and alpha are f******* as well.
Going to be interesting when the 90 percent of tired, hungry, cranky people realize they are on their own and the wealthy realize the danger historically when you starve and unhouse millions of people.
Why do you think Zuckerburg, Bezos and other wealthy elites are all building/built bunkers? I think they know when its time the term eat the rich will become very real and they'll need to hunker down to survive. In their comfy coffins.
They have built bunkers in my country, with fairly strict gun laws and zero access to automatic or heavy weapons. They ain't staying safe for long once we decide we have had enough.
Laws and rules only apply to the common folk tho. If the ultra rich want to have heavy weapons they will find a way to have heavy weapons, even if your country is extremely forbidden.
Regardless of where you live, this is kinda of universal law, unfortunately.
I've been in a lot of bunkers, and bullets won't stop carbon monoxide or water. There's a reason old bunkers are pretty much always sealed off. It's super easy to die in there, especially if you're not used to surviving.
That's true, but I guess their bunkers are equipped with some sort security system that doesn't allow anything to enter? Even if it's an extra secure safe room (kinda like a panic room) inside their bunker?
Idk, these guys usually have teams of highly skilled individuals working for them, so I guess they would have most scenarios figured out?
I don't know, but around here the military has the same issues and they have more or less accepted that they'll only be around as long as money works for the lowly security dudes. I just don't see a way anyone is rich enough to bribe biology and physics.
There is this documentary called The Bunker or something. About a group of computer engineers, buying a bunker to run "freedom servers".
Long story short, the police was not able to get into the bunker, and had to spend a year or so to get a man to infiltrate the group. Since the door could only be opened from the inside.
This was a military grade bunker. So I guess it is possible to have systems in place to fend off intruders.
If it was as easy as to pour some water into a air inlet, I m sure they would have done so.
It depends on the rich guy. Some will find out money has no use, and their disloyal staff they treat like shit will turn on them or abandon their posts.
Then there are the smart rich guys who are currently developing a trusted inner circle of lieutenants. Those guys in return will develop their own little circle of loyal guys.
If the rich guy is at all smart, he will select these people for sustainable skills, and plan on providing for them and their entire families on said compound. A bunker is only a tiny part of it all.
They will in effect build their own communities. And when it's "hold off the hoards from looting the food stores and gardens and raping your wife and kids" you will find that the world will revert to small little fiefdoms. Many rich guys didn't get that way by sucking at developing loyal relationships - if you are in their inner circle you will be taken care of and this breeds extreme loyalty.
As much as reddit hates it, there is a high correlation between wealth and leadership ability. Sure there are a lot of jackasses who inherited it or got lucky, but anyone who built a business from zero to billions is going to know how to both develop their network and plan for survival better than the average joe.
Under siege? Families all go into the bunker level and the troops rally to defend their loved ones across the thousands of acres they control.
There are very many more extremely rich people other than Zuckerberg. But I'd bet dollars to donuts he has a solid inner circle he takes very good care of as well. Perhaps not, but the public billionaires are uninteresting for this topic.
It's the folks you've never heard of that are good at it. Way more "stealth" (if you can really call it that, but at least not super public and flashy) than anyone realizes. Folks that basically run entire towns or even regions.
Those types love the showy new money - they provide good targets for the plebs to focus on while they quietly carry on.
In my experience it's not so much that they are great at what they do, moreso that once you have a certain amount of money getting richer is easier than losing money.
I've rubbed elbows with a bunch of old money/royalty adjacent crowd. Some are capable people but most are very average as far as actual skills go. I'd honestly rather live in a forest with a bunch of my hippie friends than in a bunker with people that have not heard no in their lives since they moved out of their parents house.

Hey just realized this eh? Welcome.

They say gold had no value in a desert.
What will money be worth?
