        I'm not sure it's based on any sound thinking - most of them are building bunkers on a geological fault on the south island:

        While we can’t predict when earthquakes will occur, scientific research indicates there is a 75% probability of an Alpine Fault earthquake occurring in the next 50 years, and that there is a 4 out of 5 chance that it will be a magnitude 8+ event. Geological evidence also shows that the Alpine Fault has a remarkably regular history of producing large earthquakes.

        However New Zealand doesn't have a capital gains tax so that probably factors in
