Even if he gave you this information, you wouldn't do anything with it.


What am i supposed to do with it ? Calling Puerto Rico a "dreadfull island" is just plain stupid.. repeat plain stupid and totally ignrorant. In Condado they are building Condos that start at 1 million. As in any thing in life ya better learn to follow the $$. I suppose that is because PR is a dreafull island ? So the people that are building them are plain stupid .. Correct !! On the East end in Fajardo Hedge funds are buiilding building building. Las Vegas has casinos stiil waiting to be completed since 2009 last i was there. No $$.

An Oriental theme casino in Vegas is on the auction block after going belly up !!

Kansas City area for who knows how long....
Overall construction in Las Vegas is projected to climb this year almost a billion dollars over last year's figure, and we read Bloomberg here saying Las Vegas is on the brink of a boom.

Puerto Rico (before Hurricane Maria) was wracked by a decade of high unemployment and poverty, massive damaging emigration, public health and retirement institutions bankrupt, after that came a horrific national debt crisis and credit rating downgrades - then the hurricane hit....Now PR faces a crisis of abandoned houses and foreclosures.

Those hedge funds and speculative investors you mentioned did decide (before the hurricane) to roll the dice and gamble, buying up distressed luxury properties with pennies on the dollar in Puerto Rico - but now I read in this article Wall Street Firms Gambled on Puerto Rico. They?re Losing... "their wagers are looking increasingly unlucky, especially after the storm."...one fat cat investor said ?We?re going to lose a lot of money...? ... they've closed some of their properties now (tho not damaged in storm) and certainly aren't building anything now and certainly don't plan on building anything for years in PR...

Viva Puerto Rico .. "The Isle of Enchantment"

Hi everyone! 2 weeks ago we came back from PR and started packing our home in Cali....looking back I have no clue how the heck we managed to get rid of all our furniture, 2 cars and pack up in 3 suitcases and a few USPS boxes but here we are. Flying out tomorrow! We are e very excited and proud of our little family for taking on this adventure. We have a lease in Condado. A member here was very generous to share health insurance and children?s hospital information, anybody have any suggestions for getting a car lease? Where to get one? I had so many questions but right now I am brain dead, can?t think of anything other than stocking up on water and non perishable foods. Maybe paranoid but with the small baby ...never too prepared. I am breathless at my new life in this paradise.
