This is an English translation of an article I wrote for a German magazine. The article looks into the post apocalyptic strategies the wealthy and ultrarich are focusing on. Main point: The rich are as afraid of the collapse of society as anyone else, but their means to face the calamity are on another level.

    I totally agree but something like perimeter Phalanx CIWS with decent ammo stores would put all but the bravest off for a while surely you agree with that? I’m also expecting one of the first purposes of decent Automatons would be a certain amount of self maintainance/basic repair.

      Therein lies the problem. No matter what they come up with, it will not work forever.

        OK, now I see you at the edge of range of the phalanx, hiding behind a rock occasionally holding up a “scarecrow” to see if the phalanx is out of power/ammo yet.
