Looks like they built the vaults already.

    investment banker

    If she thinks that $21 trillion, or about two-thirds of the US GDP, can manage to fall through the cracks, I don’t think I’d want her managing my investments.

    We could use a relatively low amount of resources to save the worldmfor everyone or we can just invest insane amounts of resources on destroying the world and making a survival bunker for a very select few.

    That is, of course, if this is real. An enormous bunker like this requires a huge amount of people to work on it, drilling, pouring concrete, installing plumbing, electricity, networks, computers… You don’t build a Doomsday bunker and have bone of your employees or providers babble about it, especially if it’s (as per usual) the cheapest of the cheapest providers

      I know there are a lot more people with many more loose lips, but somehow cracking the enigma code and the Manhattan project maintained secrecy somehow. I guess.

        Good point, though enigma had a relative small amount of people involved, especially compared to the Manhattan project.

        Here though it would be different, too many low level contractors involved that would see too many things. With the Manhattan project they could separate people enough so that nobody had a complete picture, here that is veryuch harder
