Billionaires will hire a team of security personnel, but once money is meaningless they have no power over the security team. Which means the head of the security team becomes the war lord. The billionaire probably doesn’t survive.
That’s why you have multiple security teams, each reporting to you through a different chain of command, so that disloyalty in one group won’t spread to others and one leader can’t win the loyalty of all your forces.
And that’s why you have additional security teams whose job is to spy on the others and report disloyalty back to you.
And that’s why your security teams are not deployed where their families live, so if one team stages a coup their families will be elsewhere, in the hands of other, hopefully loyal, security forces.
Oh hey you just reinvented government.
Lol it’s security teams all the way down

I can’t believe you have time to post shit like this. Just tell your troops to retreat back into Russia. You can end the war today. Then you might be able to have that surgery you need and still wake up after.
Exactly my thoughts
I remember reading about some seminar for billionaires in which one of them asked if it’d be a good idea to force the security force to wear bomb collars for just this reason.
Read an interview with a bank robber once.
He said that there are a million things that can go wrong in a bank robbery, and if you’re a genius you can predict 100.
Any survival strategy is going to fail because no one will know exactly what’s coming down the road.
Yes and no. Basically collapse scenarios fall into buckets. One bucket has all the scenarios with rapid collapse, e.g. nuclear war. The other is slow Collapse, e.g. climate change. The preparation for every scenario relies on broad self-sufficiency, but if you’re looking at climate change, your personal farm might need more water and a way to control soil temperatures. For nuclear war, your whole enterprise needs to be in a bunker away from major targets. Since the exact collapse scenario is unknown so far, the move if you can afford it is a hybrid approach and do both. Excess food is never a bad thing; indeed you can attract workers with a promise of wages and free food to work the farm on the surface while maintaining your non-perishable stockpile and food production in a massive bunker that you only let family members into.
Ultimately, though, you’re still fighting the problem of inevitability. Even if you and your family somehow escape dying from nuclear war, what will your kids do? There will be no doctors, no water sanitation engineers, nobody to rebuild what was. In essence, a billionaire and family might outlive the collapse, but they’ll be either stuck in their Vault or they’ll inherit an uninhabitable planet.
A friend showed me a documentary from the 1980s. They were running around in radiation suits, hunting for deer.
