Greetings, loyal minions. Your Maximum Leader riddles you this: Suppose you are a native northeasterner who has retired to South Florida, you scrimp and save and buy a trailer on the shore to live our your days in heaven’s waiting room. Then one day a developer comes and offers you (cue Dr. Evil voice) One Million Dollars to sell your trailer on the shore. What do you do?
Well, if you were a resident of of the Briny Breezes trailer park outside Miami this question would be less than a hypothetical. It would be the decision you would have to make.
Frankly, if it were your Maximum Leader he would be inclined to take the cash. As the article goes on to state, the developers goal of building exclusive mansions and luxury hotels on the plot is not a foregone conclusion. There are many zoning and governmental hurdles to building on the land. Of course, if your Maxmium Leader’s reading of just about every Carl Hiaasen novel gives him any blueprint by which to make a prediction; don’t rule out the developers. (NB: The best Hiaasen novel? Tourist Season.)
So, loyal minions, which would it be? Cash or trailer with a view?
Don’t disappoint your Maximum Leader with your answer.
Carry on.
