This must-have book is all you need to gear up for windfall profits, while friends and in-laws lose their shirts.

- Finding and fortifying your rural hideaway. ( Do keep a spare copy of the minefield map;don'trun the toaster while the electric fence is on.)
- New careers in Armageddon-people are going to need marksmanship lessons, evacuation luggage, places to flee (group rates available for mass stampedes).
- Planning ahead and cashing in when the panic hits! The Scarcity Investment Plan-stock up now on valium, lead shields, and bankruptcy forms. (Full details available in our monthly newsletter-subscribe!)
- Doomsday etiquette-looting protocol, dressing for a food riot, bomb shelter decor, a basic getaway wardrobe. ( Don't forget trinkets for the natives;dowear comfortable shoes.)
