Everyone wants to be like Bodhi. Well, at least the super wealthy. There is much concern that a civil war lasting a decade or more is rapidly encroaching upon our great land.

Why wouldn't they just stay and fight for what they believe in? Oh, that's right, none of these people have ever been a soldier.

Personally, I don't see it happening. It didn't happen in '68, and things were much scarier then.

This has been going on for at least 10 years now. The ultimate preppers - why dig a hole in the back yard when you can buy an island in the South Pacific that's thousands of miles away from anything?

It's the recent uptick that makes it newsworthy.

Statistics showed foreigners had bought over 3500 square kilometers of New Zealand in the first ten months of 2016, which is over four times as much as they did in the same period in 2010.
 
Things like this always make me ask myself: "What do they know that we don't?"

That is a really good question.

There's more than just insider trading going on.
 
Doomsday Preppers are a strange lot. I think most of them just long for the collapse of society so they can do whatever dark twisted fantasy they want to enact unto other people.
 
A life of solitude knowing that civilization has crumbled?


That's like prison without parole hearings.
 
Enjoy those earthquakes. And watch out for the Orcs.

Not if you can afford ten thousand barrels of 20+ year whiskey.

They might find the natives a bit combative...
