The being cooperative thing is the key.

Id be willing to bet my left testicle those that survive an apocalypse are those who work together to grow food, build shelter, etc. and not the goobers who lock themselves in a crate with some beans.

Classic scene at the end of the movie "Leave the World Behind.

SpoilerThe survivors finally find respite, a fully stocked, super-luxury survival shelter, left wide open, because the people that built it died in the initial collapse.

There's no point having some survival shelter unless you're already in it when you need to be.

I've often wondered about the millionaires who invest in these things. Then spend most of their time on a yacht in the Caribbean, thousands of miles away from the bunker. What exactly are they expecting to happen, do they think they're going to get a week's notice?
