Well if one hit London I would have a street party.

Just think of the profits to be made - from rebuilding & all that scrap metal... Don't forget the insurance claims too. I can see this as another branch on the tree of the current trend to asset strip nations and using the taxpayers to fund it as a double whammy. Bit of a hedge fund against civilization infastructure. Big bucks happy..

I think owning a builders-yard-merchants-buisiness of any kind, would make you a king after such a thing.

If you worked in the insurance industry....you'd be out of a job. There were too many companies refusing to pay out after Katrina (remember how it all got into the news), unless you worked for some bright spark that used a smaller disaster as a super marketing ploy (that town that had uber flooding a couple of years ago. I think Branson came in and said anyone that takes one of his policies "Today" will be covered for the water damage....clever man).

Not sure what I would do if one hit Bristol. Probably vapourise and become dust haha. If one hit Londonistan.....I'd get ready for a fallout of people.

If one hit Washington DC....I'd get ready to be caught up in WW£

Replace king with target and that is about it. Those places are on my list. I'm sure they are on others.
