You think the average person could kill an animal with a somehow sharpened stick turned into a spear?
Fishing poles out of branches and fur from these animals?
Walk a couple hundred miles to a Walmart with the money from a real estate deal that you somehow made on the fly with no Internet, phone, or anything?
Servers on your barren land that doesn't have power or anything?
Holy shite I'm bored here but your ideas completely aren't realistic with your scenario. It would be people eating leaves and berries and bugs. Drinking out of a stream or lake, if they can find one. And probably a bunch of people dead from freaking out and pissing people off to other shite like cannibalism and rape. Realistically, probably less than 5% would survive and make it to civilization depending on where the scenario started

So the earth's population started off with 2 people and those 2 people populated the world? In other words, the two people had a bunch of kids and all those kids hooked up and had kids then all the cousins started screwing each other, etc etc?

You could get strong enough branches to make spears to kill rabbits, squirrel, small deer for food.
I'd love to see people from the 21st century trying to kill small animals with sharpen sticks. And at that, kill enough to feed 5000 people.

You could also use branches and fur from the animals to make fishing poles
Yes of course you could. Maybe in minecraft.

Selling land that you can't govern anyway to someone that would be one sneeze away from manifest destiny'ing your arse.

Then I would buy some servers to establish our own network and the citizens would be able to generate money through the internet, because I would issue everyone between the ages of 18-64 a lap top.
With what electricity? :rotflmao:

Exactly. And those people that do survive, probably around 150, would all separate to find their own reliable food/water sources and you'd be back in prehistoric times.

I think you are taking this way too serious, but do you realize there was a time when people had to make their own tools. It would be a process dude. You make tools with what you got to get what you can, then whatever you got with the tools you originally have, you can build other tools. There are rocks, animal skin/fur, etc. But if you generate money, you can purchase what you can and then work with what you go. You would have to obviously have a plan, but you act like its impossible to do anything if people are in the middle of the woods without being given anything.

And your entire population would be dead within the first month. There would be no plans. Your plan would be to survive. You'd die before you ever saw a semblance of the formation of a new society.
ETA: There's a reason why humanity has existed for hundreds of thousands/millions of years and has only started being societal as of recent (in terms of how long we believe modern humans have been around). The proliferation of technology takes a really fricking long time, and even with people that have a head start with knowledge you wouldn't have enough time to do anything.

I can't do this anymore... I can not pretend to seriously engage in an argument with you because you are taking this shite way beyond where it should go.
Posted on 3/5/17 at 7:27 pm to OweO
Then start with a more reasonable scenario. You're the OP. It's your fault for making such a dumb thread.

You made the thread and the scenario. People answered it.
Sorry the answers werent yea we are going to build a Las Vegas with money from our super awesome real estate deal.

We cant start bare handed.
You have to provide seeds, tools, weapons, enough provisions for years.
Build some forts. The native Americans were here 1000s of years.
Build boats to fish sf bay.
Organize gold mining. Use proceeds to develop.
Too much to get into in this forum.

Dude shut up. We are going straight to slot machines and roulette tables to get this new civilization started
Posted on 3/5/17 at 8:15 pm to CelticDog
Yep. But the natives here just didn't plop down either. They had thousands years of technology from the old lands and their great migration from Eurasia via Alaska land bridge. Even they didn't have to experience the stuff that OP is talking about.
