spez is also a doomsday prepper who dreams about living as some sort of lord in a post-apocalyptic feudal society

In a post-apocalyptic world? That skinny nerd (not to be meant as a slur, I myself am a nerd)?
Yeah I sorta doubt that. He’d need to 1) not be an asshat and 2) have a fair bit more physical size, strength and fighting ability
I have spent a lot of time with very rich people over the years for work and they will certainly bite it incredibly early in the apocalypse. If someone is born into wealth, they are almost always fundamentally inept in basic ways. The longer someone stays rich, the more inept and abstracted from the world they become. They are entirely ensconced in a bubble of their own making. Money opens so many doors and protects them from so many just basic consequences of living that they entirely forget that those obstacles exist.
They are also just constantly, constantly being glad-handed and yessir’ed into an excessive amount of confidence. They know it too, but they can’t really trust anyone so they just make friends with people who they know would steal the wallet off their corpse but happen to be nicer about it than the other ones who would also do it because they have nowhere else to turn. Other rich people aren’t trustworthy to them either because they are only either more or less rich, above or below them.
It’ll go down pretty much how it did in the last third of the movie Triangle of Sadness. They are building bunkers that their handlers and others will actually live in. Not to mention that anyone that knows they were a potential engineer, actively or passively, of the downfall of man will have someone to take it out on right in front of them.
Bill Murray would probably survive. Saw it in a movie.
I agree with most of this. Also my movie in my cue.
Eddit. God damned fat fingers
I wonder if this assclown realizes that his fortune will be worth fuck-all if society collapses, and with it goes his power.
" I also have this somewhat egotistical view that I’m a pretty good leader." No steve, it’s 100% egotistical.
Spez looks and acts like a pussy that would be under someone boot 15 second after shit hits the fan. Boy is a walking fake confidence.
I think he’s overestimating his power and abilities. More likely scenario is the other survivors try to recreate that scene from Deliverance with him.
Of course he’s overestimating about himself, he’s a narcissist
He has mistaken having a lot of money for having leadership talent or any useful skill that would be valuable in a situation where infrastructure has completely collapsed and fiat currency is worthless. He is not physically strong, he doesn’t inspire people to follow him, he doesn’t know how to find and prepare food, how to source water, how to build shelter, how to make fire…
He knows nothing at all that would make him useful as anything beyond “that guy who digs graves” until he eventually dies from the physical exertion that his candy ass has never actually had to deal with.
Lmao does he even know how to chop firewood?
C’mon, he’s a ‘leader’, he can just have his
slavesfollowers do itHe strikes me as one of those clowns who buys a ton of bitcoin as their prep.
this guy is such a loser
That’s going to be hilarious when the actual warlords stop by and kick in his door.
Pff, as if they’d risk getting banned from the
formerfront page of the internet! Cuz, ya know, that’ll still be super relevant in a post-apocalyptic scenario… 🙃
