    I'd be realistic in what I'd buy, since I'd want someplace I could live at and enjoy if the world didn't go to crap. Since I like to shoot and don't like urban life, I'd have a place out in the country, like say, 40 acres with a pond and a wood lot, and an earth sheltered home.

    It'd be away from cities, major roads, military installations, state/federal parks or any place else where refugees might pass through or settle. Being away from refugees means I'm away from zombies or raiders.

    I'd fortify it, like this:

    With barbed wire, to slow down and break up any advancing hordes of biters or raiders that come to screw with me. Attaching the barbed wire to say, cut down telephone poles that are buried in the ground will slow down vehicle traffic, and by pouring concrete into a form and letting it harden, I'd have anti-vehicle barricades on my driveway as well.

    Taking a walk of my property, I'd make note of any places that can't be observed and or shot at from the house and make note to change that be putting a barbed wire tangle or something there, so attackers or zombies can't get any cover during their approach to the dwelling.

    I'd have reduntant food and water sources, such as the pond, a rainwater catchment system, stored bottled water, a garden and grain plot, stored food, etc.

    If I won the lottery, I would do many things. But I can assure you, zombie-proofing my home wouldn't be one of them!

    I am

    It wouldn't be too costly to zombie proof your house at least I can't imagine so. Personally I'm converting my cabin to be realtively zombie proof but its not so much to protect myself from zombies so much as its as a means of protection from vandals. But lets pretend zombies are a potential future threat... if they were and I won the lottery i'd be buying up a massive yacht complete with gun cellar and ATVs. And i'd prolly have some sweet setup RV like they had in Jurassic Park 2 but with some sort of barricade so that it couldn't be rolled.
    You smell that? That's the smell of spring, and I love it. You know what I love to do in spring? I love to come out into the woods, to walk amongst the budding trees, to smell and taste the hint of renewal that hovers in the air like a heady perfume, and to listen to the song of the birds who have returned from their long sojourn south. And bury the people I killed during the winter...

    I'd finance Gar so he could make the dead film of his dreams, with no outside pressure. That way it might not suck.
