Billionaires who didn't get that way by inheriting huge sums and suboptimally managing them tend to have gotten where they are through a variety of skills, usually including extremely good skills at selling people in much more advantaged positions the idea to give up what would naively seem to be the near-term optimal course to take a risk on something that might pay off themselves down the road but which was clearly in the not-yet-billionaire’s interest. And they’ve often kept quite current with those negotiating skills.

Agree, but in the true disaster scenario where you're in bunkers, there's nothing but the near-term. There is no down the road, you do what you need to do so that you're alive tomorrow morning.

I agree with you, I just think it'll be a scene of paying one half of the population to kill the other.

There will be plenty of softer targets meal team six will be going after first, with plenty of fighting to keep them distracted.

I'm picturing Bill running the old embrace, extend, and extinguish model until they all just kill each other or die of hunger/radiation/lead poisoning.
