    I’m pretty sure most of the rich and powerful that survived became warlords or gang leaders in Mad Max.

        For a fun hypothetical, I think this about each:

        Bezos: Pushed the button on society ending himself, instead of mocking as king of a new society instantly became the biggest warlord in the states.

        Gates: realized he was too old to play warlord. Forfeited his fiefdom to be advisor to Lord Bezos.

        Buffet: Tried to keep some society going Vault Tech style. Waterchip breaks barely a generation later and they’re forced out into the wastes.

        Elon: was gloating at Twitter HQ when it all went down. His visa employees took turns stabbing him with ballpoint pens immediately.
