They remind me of the game 'fallout' myself. The question I have is 'why'? The nuclear threat from Russia seems to me to be on the very low scale of threat. Issues such as a pandemic could be road out in a fortified home, to which many wealthy homes are already to a point with large fences etc. Economic collapse? We can look around the world for that, Argentina, Venezuela currently.. not really a massive civil unrest issue, though increased crime rates, gated communities being the most secure [and guarded]. We can look at parts of Africa, Zimbabwe and in recent times South Africa where white racism and murder is very high. Being rich allows movement. So, I'm unsure as to the motivation.

There is a lot of nuclear banter and talk, with many experts saying chance of nuclear war is increasing. N.Korea, Iran and China and Russia are constantly warming of the possibility of nuclear attack. Russia has more nukes than the USA so there is a build up and Trump has stated that he is going to upgrade the US nuclear arsenal. Bunker are not just for nuclear but there is a real chance of a US civil war with the society divided more so than ever before. Rev:15 in the bible states during the tribulations the rich and kings will hide themselves in the earth...... "And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;" fpif.org/may-greater-risk-nuclear-catastrophe-cold-war/www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4357456/Russia-warns-missiles-increases-risk-nuclear-war.html

I also wonder if they can get to the bunkers on time?? Thats the critical point. Regardless of whether its a bunker, fort or plain BOL, its not much good if you don't have enough warning to get there in time before all hell breaks loose. There was an article in the NZ news recently that mentioned a lot of rich yanks buying up land there in case of war. One of the commenters was right on the money though -- those guys have to fly to the other side of the world, then get from the airport to their bunkers, all before anyone else catches on that something is going down and doesn't get there first. Even when they do get to the bunkers, they will need to be pretty well stocked, as growing food pretty much depends on access to water and power (for light) when you're stuck undrground. Regardless of what happens, eventually they would need to have stuff delivered and / or come out get more supplies; leaving their facilities open to attack in the long run (unless they can co-opt the locals, like the old-time dukes etc did with their castles and fortified towns).
