This is how billionaires prepare for the Apocalypse

The CEO of Reddit, the famous website valued at 600 million dollars, Steve Huffman recently underwent laser eye surgery to improve his vision.The reason behind the decision is not what would be expected, but as he has expressed, it is a preventive measure in case chaos breaks out.

I explain that if the world ends mine or is in trouble, getting contact lenses or glasses will be very difficult and without them you have no chance of survival.In addition to this, you also bought several motorcycles, lots of weapons, ammunition and food .

Like Huffman, Antonio Garcia Martinez, a former Product Manager on Facebook, bought 45 hectares of forest on an island in the Pacific Ocean northwest , where he started installing generators of energy, solar panels and bulk ammunition.

In this isolated corner but still accessible in some way, Garcia Martinez hopes to have a safe haven for his family if they need it. When the word of his project spread, many other millionaires in the area joined to share their preparation plans.

The purchase of real estate in various parts of the world is one of the constants among these preppers. In addition to serving as shelters, too They generate passive income.Many have also chosen to change their capital to BitCoin and other types of electronic currencies.

Another strategy that preppers with large budgets usually apply is the Bunker construction , virtually impenetrable rooms with everything they might need to survive quietly during a fatal attack.

However, when you are a millionaire, luxury is a factor that simply cannot missing.This is the case of the bunker built near Rothenstein, in Germany.In the beginning, this property of 76 hectares was built by the Soviets during the Cold War, but the Californian businessman Robert Vicinio bought it at auction to the German Government and turned it into an opulent explosion-proof space.
