Would You Live In A Home That Once Was An Underground Missile Silo?

There are places like this all over the United States, it would seem. People buying long since abandoned or unused missile silos and turning them into large homes. One example can be seen in this video below:

I'm sure it's not something everyone would want to do. But there's something about the whole idea that intrigues me.
Would you be willing to live in a place like this?

That would be cool. I would love to live in a house like that. A missile silo is made up of durable materials so you can be assured that you are safe. I can also think of so many other ways to stylize it. I might turn it into something like a Batcave or some cool hideout-like theme.

Hi Darthjustice, I would not mind living in such structure.
I think when war breaks out, I would be the last one to die.
This kind of structure lasts for a long time, since the army really put in much money into the construction.
If I had the money, I would renovate it until it becomes an underground palace fit for a king.

I don't see anything wrong with it if you like that sort of thing, but it's huge! I'd hate to have to clean it... and I prefer lots of windows open to the outside and not just to the sky. I'm sure they'd be safe no matter what happened. Those places are built to withstand an earthquake, I have heard.
