Del Mar, Calif.-based Vivos has a plan for anyone fearing doomsday: buy space in a bunker underneath the Mojave Desert. Just in case, of course.
The company promises that for $50,000, buyers can get a four-person room in a nuke-proof bunker that features an atrium, a gym, and a jail, plus an on-site restaurant, as the Associated Press reports.
So far, Vivos claims that it has collected deposits on fully half of the 132 spaces available in the 13,000 square-foot bunker–presumably from folks worried about the world ending in 2012, terrorism, asteroid collisions, and other omnipresent bugaboos common to life in the 21st century.
“I’m careful not to promote fear. But sooner or later, I believe you’re going to need to seek shelter,” said company owner Robert Vicino in the report.
The bunker resides in an undisclosed location to prevent freeloaders from finding it. Reservations cost $5,000 for each adult and $2,500 for each kid, and pets are free, according to the article. The line forms here.
