Doomsday bunkers for under $10,000!
NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- A company that sells luxury doomsday shelters is branching out with a new "economy class" bunker that costs $9,950.
Vivos is building the cheaper facility to accommodate the growing number of people worried about "life-extinction events" such as super volcanoes and asteroids but can't afford to shell out $35,000 for the fancier model.
I love that they have both "economy" and "luxury" doomsday shelters. That's the American way right there - you provide options for everything! Here's a company that has identified a need and developed a way to make money off of that need - the very essence of the American dream. What cracks me up is this, though:
All told, Vivos has more than 10,000 "members" in its apocalypse community -- some of whom have merely "applied" for spots in the bunkers and others who have plunked down refundable $5,000 deposits.
Refundable? You get your money back if the world fails to end?
That is all.

You get your money back if the world ends before you get your bunker.
If the bunker fails, you don't get your money back, but you get a 'departing' gift: an urn.
I'd say they 'urned' their refunds, but don't want to be accused of verbing my nouns.
Why do I want to spend TEOTWAWKI surrounded by Sheeple? I'll just use my own Bunker, thank you.
Can I bring my tinfoil hat to my bunker or is that verboten?
So,you can own a bunker,apply for a spot in one and even pay a deposit on one...Hmmm, sounds like one of the Fallout games. Life imitates art, er, video game!
LOL- There TRULY is a fool born every minute...
