    If you can play the long game Pooh, Sanibel real estate went from millions to zero. No bridge. Sanibel will always be attractive. 15-20 years from now you’ll be 50x and loving it. If this occurred 12 months ago you coulda had nearly free financing.

    The DeSantis insurance is another story

    Same is true for any Naples RE to lesser degree. That phase of my life is over but the wheels don’t stop turning

    Start a lanai repair business and become a millionaire and very popular at cocktail parties.

    You’re repairing giant screen doors for chrissake


    I remember flying in after the last hurricane and seeing blue tarps on roofs months later. With labor and supply issues even with out of state contractors I can’t even imagine when you’d ever get your place fixed. The stress would drive me crazy.

    Lotta beach front condominiums (shades of the Miami collapse) were recently built or in construction. Every square inch of beach front it seemed. That should be interesting too.

    These projects were always manned by what were clearly Florida immigrant labor. I’d be on the beach working on my skin cancer and literally watch the laborers pedal away at 3:30pm on their bicycles. Serious as a heart attack. That labor is gone, eh? So screwed.

    Maybe arrange a plane from Martha’s Vineyard, Ronnie? Good luck with roofers and labor homie

    Lucky af to have exited when I did

    having been through this fairly recently, it took months/years to get things cleaned up and repairs. We are not nearly as densely populated as this area. The costs will be staggering. Folks with dump trucks and cranes will become wealthy in just a couple of years and never have to work again. Carpetbaggers will bombard the area for years. Old folks will get ripped off. If you haven't been through it, it is hard to comprehend.

    What a horrible disaster. God forbid Ian's bigger brother is lurking.

    Let us pray....God bless this earth, in particular the swamp people of Florida, God bless the uneducated,
    the ignorant, the fat, the greedy and the selfish. Let these waters wash away the rot that is America.
    It is your doing, it is just.

    Thank-you Jesus, thank-you Lord

    As if the devastation of Hurricane Ian wasn't enough, in its wake a highly adaptable microscopic creature gained a foothold: a “flesh-eating” bug called Vibrio vulnificus.
    Twenty-eight people were infected with this bacteria, which can quickly degrade skin cells, leach iron from blood, and lead to multiple organ failure. Seven of the infected died. “When you’re in a tropical environment with standstill water that’s very contaminated with debris and whatever else is baking in the sun—that is the perfect cocktail for this bacteria to develop,” says James Williams, an environmental specialist at the Florida Department of Health.
