I have access to remote places too but I'm too old to want to fight off younger roaming raiding parties.
So my plan is to just pull up a chair on my rooftop and watch the fireworks until someone murders me
Good plan. If you know the world is collapsing, go drink in the world as much as you can until it happens. In the novel "Forge of God," when one character learns the earth IS going to be destroyed, he simply drives to a national park and camps out there, waiting for the end. That's how I'd like to live my last days. Maybe the world will end in fire, maybe ice - but either way I want to have absorbed the beauty of it as much as possible.
