Inside the 'billionaire bunkers' where the world's super rich will ride out the apocalypse

A growing number of the world's super rich are preparing for the apocalypse by purchasing 'doomsday bunkers'.

But don't expect the one per cent to slum it out in drab, concrete dwellings as they survive the end of the world - these bunkers feature some of the most lavish layouts imaginable that are designed for the more modern survivalist.

'Your father or grandfather's bunker was not very comfortable,' Robert Vicino, CEO of Vivos, told CNN.

'They were gray. They were metal, like a ship or something military. And the truth is mankind cannot survive long-term in such a Spartan, bleak environment.'

Gvmnt has lots of shelters here and there. But they don’t have enough ammo to defend them from the inevitable.

IMO best to be in a place nobody knows about, nobody cares about and nobody can hear or see you if the pass by. An abandoned mine with water supply would be good imo. One could drive an RV or 2 in there and some truckloads of supplies then collapse the entrance behind them. Air shafts could be excavated for an eventual exit.

These bunkers would make a great movie plot. The politics as they run out of supplies would be very interesting. One-by-one the Havenots would group up and attack someone who still has supplies. Like Ghengis Khan the offer would be join us or die. By the time the Haves figure out what is going on the Havenots would have enough members and supplies to beseige all the remaining Haves, selecting the weakest first.

They have solitude and no one meddling in their lives. Granted, that may crip their accustomed to lifestyle, but as far as I’m concerned I’d be fine on my square mile of high desert with its trout stream, mule deer, chukar and mountain lion.

It seems pretty obvious that the employers in the bunker, cut off from the world of police and ICE, and unable to force fired employees out of the bunker, would have little or no leverage over the hired help. If only there were a way to surreptitiously install nanny cams in these bunkers...

Cool.
A target-rich environment.

It's not a matter of if... just a matter of when and how such a helpless cache of goodies is overwhelmed, when found. And they will be found.

No, they will not survive. Their bunkers will become their tombs. Ref. Revelation 6:15-17.

For insight on the massive destruction that will visit earth within 200 days, please read “The Rescue of the Bride” at http://october-5-2017.com

I’m not a billionaire, so I bought a barrel for my shelter.

I was trying it out and my wife asked me where all the other monkeys were.

LOL! Well that’s a lot to take in. How about just reading the Left Behind series? ;-)
