Vivos - Underground Survival Shelter Network Membership and Co-Ownership



I sent them some questions:


I am thinking about buying a membership. But I have a few questions.

1.) When there is a disaster or failure of humanity, and I show up at the "door" to my shelter, what is to keep the hired security personnel from executing me and installing their girlfriends, children, or hookers into my purchased shelter?

2.) How will the ventilation be disguised/protected from those undesireable surface surviror riff-raf who may want to damage it in order to keep me from enjoying a comfortable evening with my family?

3.) If there is an airborne pathogen that threatens the world, how late can I show up at my shelter and still be admitted by the other survivors? Will there be a secret knock I will have to memorize?

But the answer they sent back was not very informative...

Thank you for your interest in Vivos. Due to the tremendous interest in the Vivos shelter network, we are unable to respond to every email. However, every message is reviewed and when appropriate, or necessary, we will directly respond to you.

lol that shit cracks me up. I would not want to be one of the last people around anyways. What a scam for rich paranoid suckers. How about take the 100k or whatever and buy a 997t, when disaster strikes bring it up to full throttle on the freeway until you lose it

Funny "questions"! Doubt they will ever answer you...the ex-hedge fund guys and former traders, having bought up most of the F & P Cars, and houses in the Hamptons, are lining up, to sign up. Along with all the 3rd/4th world "gov't leaders/crooks".

Spartan looking digs and I bet it will be like Lord of the Flies after a week...

I guess if the ol' planet gets a few days notice on the asteroid, that safety hut
won't matter; if it's a nuke war, who wants to be around after, anyway?

^ If you take a good look at the puctures, they look like very simple enclosures that furniture was shoved into.

I don't see any mechanical room details so I wonder how air and water are handled.

Kinda reminds me of "The Vault" on the fallout video game. Build a society in a bunker under a mountain after a nuclear war... But what's going to be the source of energy? Fuel for generators? They have flatscreen TV's in the rooms... but what the fuck is going to be on TV???

I was going to say just some rich eccentric paranoid guy built some elaborate bunkers under a mountain, till I saw how many locations they had marked on the map! Of course they aren't built, and I'd be amazed if they actually owned any land or had any permits etc... And if a few people put up money towards the project and it doesn't get built or by some chance the construction starts, and it doesn't get finished and the project is killed... do the people get refunded?

The entire concept is retarded. The only self absorbed assholes that would want to be one of the say 1,000 people left is the asshole who can't get laid right now. (he is trying to up his odds!) Props to anyone who is making money of these ridiculous schemes though. How American to profit off morons

WOW is all I have to say. Crazy question but wouldn't many of the "possible major events" at the bottom of the page ALSO destroy these camps? Is it tsunami proof? Polar shift proof?

I read each shelter costs around $10 million to make. That sounds far too inexpensive to construct something so advanced deep underground that should sustain any number of people for any decent amount of time. I would expect a number 10x that or more to accomplish the construction techniques and technology that surely goes into such a project. Something certainly doesn't seem right with the company and the website.
