They don’t care. But they also don’t realize that those paid armies are gonna turn on them real fast. What are they gonna pay the guards with when money is useless? Even if they hold some leverage, I bet most would crumble if the guards violently pried it away.
There was a really good article by a consultant under NDA who spoke with some of these rich idiots about the guard dilemma. Consultant basically said rich idiots would have to treat the guards like family or face torture/execution. Rich idiots were not trying to hear that. I wish I could find the article.
They’ll just move to the most inhabitable, least affected, parts of earth. Perhaps New Zealand, Argentina or Scotland.
They don’t need bunkers. This is what the billion dollar yachts, private planes and multiple homes in many jurisdictions are for.
Anyway, I don’t think it’s fair to blame only the rich. We live in democracies with free speech and accessible information.
I know a lot of anti-nuclear activists and those people are not rich, but are definitely more guilty of causing catastrophic climate change than the millionaires and billionaires.
Every advanced country could have achieved the 5 tons per capita that France and Sweden achieved in 1990 by using nuclear energy. And that would have solved most of the climate change problem. The reason it is so bad now, is because we squandered the past 35 years and increased our emissions instead of reducing them.
You do you. If you are western, you are probably emitting 10-100 times as much as the average world citizen, and even multiples of what your (and my) grandparents emitted.
Sure, there is always going to be one guy emitting even more, so everybody will always point to someone else.
I prefer to point to the anti-nuclear activists. Because they are the only reason we aren’t all like Sweden and France.

I’m not sure there will be any. I recall someone mentioning an issue with NZ (other than the kiwis re-appropriating bunkers) but I’ve forgotten it now. Argentina is suffering from drought and large wildfires, and is expected to see tropical diseases expanding their territory (already happening in many places). Scotland and the whole region is going to suffer from intensely cold weather due to the AMOC slowdown, but I expect this will result in chaotic hot/cold weather extremes because the Earth’s Energy Imbalance (EEI) will still be extraordinarily high.

It sounds like getting a job in high priced security is a good way to secure your very own apocalypse bunker with no money down!
Now that’s some solid career advice!

I’m 45 years old, an average schmuck and my carbon impact across my life is nowhere near that of a top percenter. I will absolutely blame them.

They will need bunkers when the oceans turn into giant vats of methane infused bouillabaisse.>
