In a true apocalyptic setting, this would just be collecting resources for the strong and powerful. I don’t think the rich would stay in power for very long.

The guards and servants will turn if not before groups from the surrounding areas raid the place.

That said, if I had the money and land it’s a provocative idea in these fucked times. The thing is the rich have been working on this shit for a long time now. They know society is likely to collapse again.
