He isn’t, never has and never will. I know some of the bunker people. They basically have them in the way you or I might have a fancy tool in the garage or piece of art. It’s a discussion piece for a different class of wealth.
- TurdF3rguson 7mo agoThat's a cute theory that it's just a conversation starter. Truth is, he knows he will need that bunker when the shit hits the fan. And it's already starting to.
- hax0ron3 7mo agoI don't see the bunkers as being as useful as some might imagine them to be. In the kind of apocalyptic scenario which would actually make him want to move to the bunker in New Zealand, why would his security people bother to keep taking orders from him instead of just taking his stuff and demoting him to an advisor or maybe even killing him? I guess it's better than dying outside the bunkers, but there's a good chance that he would lose his status and live subordinate to whoever the local warlord turns out to be.
- TurdF3rguson 7mo ago> why would his security people bother to keep taking orders from him Shock collars / implanted brain bombs would be my evil plan, but he's got smarter people than me on this so who knows?
- hax0ron3 7mo agoYeah, I guess the practical problem with shock collars / implanted brain bombs is that you would have to somehow convince your security people to put them on or get them implanted before the apocalyptic scenario happens, which seems like a tough sell even for someone with Altman's business acumen.
- TurdF3rguson 7mo agoNah you just tell them it's rfid chips to get into the bunker.
