If You won the lottery .............

If You won the lottery .............
I've put this into scenarios as unlikely as it is.

Assume that you won the lottery or somehow had unlimited funds.

What would you do prepper-wise?

What kind of house/land/

What kind of kit?


Remember - money is no object but if you can provide links to your desires that would be fabulous.

Estate/land in Scotland - large acreage with woodland, pasture, lots of fresh water and a working farming system

hydro power setup, possible small scale wind, possible solar too

remote location

stores for as many people I would want to help out (family, friends and staff), get comm's sorted, the list goes on e.t.c.

restore a couple emp proof (old) 4x4's and have all the part to rebuild them a few times over in addition to the other every day cars etc

This house is for sale just a couple of miles away from where I sit,.. this would be the place for me, no roads no tracks,...only access is by boat, protected on one side by `Clash Moss` a large expanse of bog, and a range of high mountains on two other sides, then the loch on the fourth side

It has out building, it is self sufficient,... its good enough for my dreams

Not sure I would want an island,.. the supplies might run out mighty quick, then you could be in an island prison

As I-K-E said the house comes complete with quad bikes and boats, boats are the only lifeline, their cars are parked up over the water from them, so everything from the kids going to school to going out for a meal starts and finishes with a boat ride,... and Loch Shiel can get up to a 6 foot swell in bad weather,...so there are days when the trip cant be made

Tropical island paradise, with hard rock cliffs at least 25 meters tall. On top of which would be lush forests and a parcel of 5acres of uber fertile land. A spring fountain system inland....think Thailand paradise, mixed with French Polynesia and New Zealand.

Home...Geodesic dome with Earthship 'tunnels' linking 4 main domes.

5 storage containers loaded with prep food. 1 with ammo. 1 with various guns and other gear e.g. snares. Lastly, 1 storage crate to serve as a wine cellar and walk-in humidor...both fully stocked haha.
