A consultant reported that billionaires, when confronted with the idea that the private security team have incentive to continue to obey the billionaire once society had collapsed, asked tge consultant how they could msintain control of the security team, such as if shock/explosive collars or locking up all the food would work.
The consultant suggested they simply treat the security team really well beforehand, like just being a good friend.
The billionaires then became concerned, and I shit you not, asked “but where does that end?”
Yeah… No billionaire knows how to exist without exploiting labour. They aren’t going to be going into their bunkers without security, chefs, cleaners, or entertainers. There’s so much cognitive dissonance required to simultaneously believe that the government/world is going to be destroyed, but you will safe and still have a legal right to property.
The only thing that maintains their wealth is the legal and economic system they use to exploit other people’s work. Without it their property is just going to be seized by the first person who is quicker on the draw.
So… become the head of security for a billionare, got it.

I’ll try to find the link to add it here.
Edit: Here it is.
Have you seen billionaire wives? I’ll pass
Oh I wouldn’t care for the wife so much, in fact I’d likely throw her out as well, but a free fully stocked doomsday bunker sounds pretty nifty.
They usually hire ex special forces for that role
