- Liquidate all my assets
- Spend that money on food, bottled water, camping toilets, medicine, etc.
- Barricade myself indoors
- Wait it all out
Stock up on canned food, ammo, batteries, fuel etc. Go to a cabin in the wilderness far away from everything. Check that I've got the essentials, realize I forgot something. Go back to town to pick it up. Go back to cabin, go back to town to print out some guides on how to preserve food, go back to cabin.
Get gun, fishing rod and tackle, salt water filters, and those mre buckets bible thumpers are always selling on tv. Go to the marina and steal a keelboat. Dab on all the land lubbers still on shore.
Can I go with you?
Sure. I can always use more fishbait.
I’m going to assume the zombies are the result of a microbial/viral infection reanimating a cadaver. Those muscles aren’t going to stay functional for long, because the body is dead, systems have stopped etc.
I’ll just get enough water and canned food to survive a week. Just lock the doors and stay inside until the zombies outside stop moving.
I would go with 2-3 month, but after first one they shouldn't be all that dangerous. Zombies don't work unless they are of magical kind.
1 month is a long time. Hope they don't start doing yoga and free health care.
Probably kill myself
I mean yeah it would suck but why not at least run for the hills get a cutesy air bnb cabin and max out your credit cards on food and ammo?
I guess the better question is: why? To what end? Live out some doomer prepper fantasy? The world would be right fucked and you’d be out in the middle of nowhere by yourself which you could do right now without the zombies.
I mean, you could try, but eventually someone will find you, probably arrest you, and tear down your home
There is so much empty land in the middle of nowhere. If the goal is to never interact with society again, it is unbelievably easy to achieve.
Someone owns that land, because we've decided every inch of the planet is already owned
Human habitation is visible from space. There are parts of every government dedicated to just enforcing just this... Go out and try it, people are arrested for tents on this land, let alone homesteads
Nobody's looking into space that nobody wants. And people don't want space that can't be easily accessed. Win win for you.
But if you're determined to remain in US you can buy an acre of land in Alaska for like a thousand bucks, and then you can live there for as long as you want.
