My mind has been here before ... where to live in case of no tomorrow, at least no normal tomorrow, right?

I thought of a bunker, a mountain top, forty acres in the boonies etc., but sooner or later they will gang up on you till you run out of bullets.

So with eight other families investing $125,000 each we could live the life of a fisherman. Example: http://www.maritimesales.com/HOM10.htm




We could stick together using wind power when the fuel runs out, fish together, solar power for
power needs, stand watch together, looking out for pirates, offering nothing of value to the pirates that will ply their trade.

Find a safe harbor and anchor ...

$125,000 each? 8 of you doing that?


I might have a bank soon that would hold your investment for you.
It's Zombie proof. And I can say prayers over it.

Well. If I get to a point that we have the bar? I'll need to talk to a few people about the name.

Mr. Wolfzer is a good one.

Our motto would be 'we don't have Limos so you can't steal one!'

And NO Jim! I'll never ever let you live that down.

Default Castillo di Aktung! 150,000sq ft of solid stone!

SIMPLE! I just take over this joint (just up the road) complete with 5 below- ground floors full o' vino; and move my arsenal and brothers into the place. There is actually a French novel about this after the apocalypse; which I read years ago. Well set back on a hill top with 360 views! PS: it's a real no-bull Tuscan fortress complete with drawbridge and torture chamber: Iron maiden, gibbet and rack if anyone pisses me off.> Running low on wter ain't a big issue>and of course a proper mancave!

On 170 acres of premium Napa wine land and 150,000 sq ft castle- completely authentic reproduction- stone imported from Italy...with 15 years R.E. appraising thrown in ...not omitting the relative fame and/or notoriety of the famous winemaker: $100,000,000 without even annoying my comfort 'radar' on my valuation-there are no comps! Formerly known as a 'folly'; no one's laughing now at the builder's dream- it's just jaw dropping!! http://bayareavr.com/client/castellodiamorosa/360tour/ give yourself a tour and next time your out, this is stop one on my architectural tour of the Napa Valley. PS as an ordained minister you'll appreciate the chapel with regard to your sacerdotal proclivities; just remember to bless the vino to give SOME semblance of propriety as you lip the chalice during vespers!

I would still go with the old fashioned fall out shelter though.

Actually, as noted, 5 of the wine cellar floors are below ground and will more than suffice. But in response to your concerns: http://www.missilebases.com/#!communications-bunker-polo-mo/c1p81 as an alternative. Also; http://www.zillow.com/blog/house-of-the-week-missile-silo-for-sale-122908/ And this little gem just east of me :http://www.sacbee.com/news/business/article2612357.html in Vacaville...bottom line; I grow all my own veggies and would prefer the castle with acreage land for food.

When I said - fallout shelter I meant a proper one. Such as this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tagans..._Command_Point
Not a silo or comm point that is airburst protected.

I mean who wont like something that is:
- in central Moscow.
- with his own access to public transportation system.
- multiple entrances.
- 90 days automony.
- enough space for family and kids.

We'll leave the light on fer ya! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Greenbrier 'The Greenbrier is also the site of a massive underground bunker that was meant to serve as an emergency shelter for the United States Congress during the Cold War. It was code named "Project Greek Island"

Jeff, I really envy you. If that bank was located around La Grange Texas, for that price, I would already own it today. That looks like a really sweet deal.
