Home Life Preserver
These days, economic worries seem to come and go like so much good & bad weather, but people are smart, right? and smart folks 
prepare for the worst by adjusting their way of life, or at least anticipating an economic downturn by keeping a watchful eye on global events fueled by oil prices. Imagine for a moment if the economy took a major turn for the worse, what would you do? What if you HAD to stay home? No more going out to dinner & drinks, no more vacation trips or liesurely afternoon drives and life in in general becomes so expensive, you’d have to tighten your belt & hunker down as you and your family ride out the storm. Think this notion is outlandish? What if gas really does hit four or five dollars per gallon? Things could get ugly, fast!
Let’s not forget about all the other doom and gloom predictions either. The nightly news and even the Discovery Channel is full of signs that perhaps we should be watching more seriously. Global warming, glacial melt, super tsunamis, asteroid impacts, super viruses, terrorism and let’s not forget George W. Bush hinting at World War III. Could it get any worse? If you were forced to stay home, no matter what the circumstance, wouldn’t it be nice to have all the (southern) comforts you need at hand?
Building a home bar, rec room or home theater area is one way to start preparing for the future by reducing your travel costs, saving gas and saving the money you might otherwise spend on expensive drinks and entertainment, freeing up that money for essentials like food and home expenses, and let’s not forget, a home bar built underground in a basement area can double as a protective bunker in tough times. Sure there is a initial cost to building your own family room entertainment area, but consider it an investment in your home that will increase in value.
A basement area is best, but upper levels or your home also serve as great areas for a private place to entertain. Of course basements have the added advantage of protecting you from tornadoes and other potentially deadly events. To take it to the extreme, you could even reinforce the ceiling to provide better protection, add a large walk in pantry for food and beverages. It’s not a far fetched idea to combine a home bar area with a fallout shelter like those of the 1950′s. The bottom line is to be prepared.
Does this mean we should all build bars and become raging alcoholics? No, rather we can preserve happier times by bringing entertainment back inside the home the way it used to be; playing games, watching movies and connecting with family members. Once you begin into building a home bar or theater project, you’ll spend many years not only having fun entertaining, but also “adding flair” to your own private establishment.
So look around you, keep your eye on the news and start thinking about how that empty or unused space in your home, especially those with basements, can be transformed into your new home bar refuge and bunker, shielding you from an increasingly crazy world.
