Me, being the good cousin I am, agreed to poke through a millionaire’s things under the pretense of cleaning. Don’t deny it, you would snoop too if you had the chance.So yeah, there’s a pool, a giant library, an entertainment room and a state-of-the-art bunker completely stocked with food and supplies.

And did I mention the only other woman in the community is an old lady?I’ll just be living the High Life at the End of the World if you need me.
