Which do you save ?

(1/3) > >>

bajdas:
I will be interested in opinions, because it has started alot of conversations with friends. This is a hypothetical situation:

In a small rural township you have an emergency situation. You have limited equipment and resources.

All people and animals have beem moved to a safe place and thus no life risk.

At risk is six houses and a temporary grain storage facility on the outskirts of the township.

The storage facility has approximately $1 million worth of grain recently harvested under tarpaulins. The houses if lost will affect the owners.

You have the resources to:
1/ Ensure you save the houses, but loose the grain storage.
2/ Ensure you save the grain storage, but loose the houses.
3/ Split your resources & take a chance on loosing both or minimising the impact to houses & grain storage.

Which do you choose and why ?

I do not think there is a right or wrong answer.....

crossy:
go with the houses saves people alot of hard times plus the grain would be covered by insurance.

Bagyassfirey:
split and defend both a pile of grain is relatively simple to defend as long as you got the tarp off it in time (1 million dollars worth isnt a big pile). If ya didn would revert back to the houses!
