A pandemic has a way of exposing the chasm between the haves and have-nots
direct nuclear strikes—and as COVID-19 spreads, Hall said that he’s “seen a spike in inquiries.” Wealthy people, and even preppers, may be responding to the outbreak in all kinds of ways, but one person who’s already reserved his spot at the condo is, a 51-year-old Florida entrepreneur who owns multiple “fortified locations,” as he describes them.
The biggest question everyone asks: what are you gonna do if something happens, if you’re stuck, how are you going to get there? You have to have a realistic plan. If you’re survival-minded, you have a five-day head start on most everybody else. For example, a hurricane is coming to Miami, I live in Orlando. Most people sit there and stare at the TV, wait to see what happens. I would rather get in the car, get out of Florida before the two hours are up.
The coronavirus seems to be highly contagious. A lot of government agencies are very concerned. I’m concerned about how concerned the people get. I believe the threat will come from mass hysteria more than the actual virus. If all of a sudden there’s quarantines being thrown out, whether it’s overkill or not, quarantine means shelves empty, people getting angry, lawlessness on the streets. Things can get crazy. That’s more a concern than the virus itself.

Now I have to do it a little quicker because all of a sudden this entire facility sold out in a week. Whenever there is a problem, let’s say a massive earthquake in California, the people that had this on their mind, they have the means, they make a move. They start buying.
