A skillset is the best you can do and financially manuevering away from obligations within the System. After that we are at the mercy of events and the Powers that be to a large degree.

"Many of the world's elite, including hedge fund managers, sports stars and tech executives (Bill Gates is rumored to have bunkers at all his properties) have chosen to design their own secret shelters to house their families and staff."
Their staff will eat the elite. It seems the brightest among us are not all that brilliant outside their own chosen field.
I think it is much more nuanced than that. Those who treat staff as valued employees and respect them for doing their jobs and show it will have the loyalty of that same staff. Those who treat the staff/guards as disposable furniture will be in for an unpleasant awakening if TSHTF for real.
