He is the guy that built a bunker in New Zealand and has a ready made plan to escape on a motorcycle with his escape bag filled with guns, money and supplies when things collapse right? (At least I think he that guy) Is that normal person behavior?
- gkoberger 3y agoI didn't say he was normal. He's clearly not (normal people don't start OpenAI). That doesn't preclude him for being a thoughtful person who wants the best for the world around him.

- shipscode 3y agoI vote no because New Zealand seems like a poor choice for possessing arms in a bunker.
- seanw444 3y agoIf you have money and connections, the laws of the plebs are no longer relevant. You essentially have a right to keep and bear arms anywhere on Earth if you're rich enough.

- rpmisms 3y agoAll of Appalachia would be a better place. Anti-development, much more wildlife, not really an invasion target.
- int_19h 3y agoBack when this plan was publicized, you could legally own an AR-15 in New Zealand without much trouble. It's still the case for bolt- and lever-action rifles and similar stuff.

- tomjakubowski 3y agoAltman is a rich prepper who talks about it, like Thiel. He claimed his bug-out base is in Big Sur, not in NZ as far as I'm aware.
- mindcrime 3y agoIs that normal person behavior? Other than the part about having enough money to build a bunker in New Zealand, I'd say "yes".
- bulbosaur123 3y ago> Is that normal person behavior? Normal people suck and are generally dumb as a brick (including me). Normal people don't extrapolate calamities and don't think ten steps ahead.
- Auracle 3y agoIf I had loads of money I would absolutely do the same. It's insurance. For someone with an average income, it's not worth the cost of the .01% chance you'll need it. For someone with more money than they know what to do with, it's worth it.
