How will I fight boredom? Don't worry, there won't be any idle time.

How will I heat my home? Wood, obviously.

How do I provide light and electricity? Candles or kerosene lamps...a solar panel to charge batteries and to power the ventilation fan to exchange the air in your (hopefully) earth-sheltered home.

What do I have to offer others? That won't be a concern for quite awhile, assuming you live that long.

How do I pay for this? Your problem. No time like the present to start planning.

All of my neighbors depend on electrical or natural gas for heat. I personally have seen the temperature in my location get to -60 degrees below zero with a wind chill of over 100 below. Many in my surrounding area will die of exposure unless they can be in my living room. I honestly don’t know the answer to the question of what will I do when people in my area are freezing and there is smoke coming out of my chimney.

I would strongly suggest heating with propane for the first week or so - then switch to wood. If it's -60 degrees - within a week anyone without wood or propane will be dead.
