Business Venture

[Gobblemeister]

If you've been following the news recently you would know that Chile' was recently rocked by a massive earthquake.

It got me thinking for a moment about another significant geographic anomoly of Chile'.

I am of course referring to the fact that it takes up the entire pacific coastline from Argentina. When I thought of this a brilliant idea flashed into my mind.

What if this happens again?

What if Chile' literally breaks off of the mainland?

Here is where the business venture comes in.

I propose that we invest in purchasing properties on the Western border of Argentina so that when Chile' breaks off or crumbles Argentina will then have almost the entire west side become beachfront property.

Property values would skyrocket within the area, and who would be selling that property, us.

Hotels, homes, restaurants and other luxury establishments would all pay to have their name built on the new coast.

Not bad eh?

Very good.

But completely impossible. How is all the sand going to get there, plus, Chile would be a few metres away across the water.

Plus.....

...oh I get it now, it's a "funny" thread.

Well played.

Don't worry, the sand will come on its own as water wears away

If we have too we will have investors pay to push Chile' away with machines or whatever. And we'll just dump sand until we have a beach

Flawless

This man seems to be at a level of boredom that exceeds mine at the moment.

Indeed.

Count me in. I'll invest 35% of your needed capital if I'm guaranteed a 3.5% return over the course of 2 years, fixed rate of course.

That would be a great idea if it was possible at all. The fault line is on the west side of Chile, half in the ocean and half on the land.

Whatever, we'll just have to fund a Argentinian militant group to clear the remaining Chileans out and assimilate it into Argentia

That will probably run a pretty penny, but don't worry there will be enough Starbucks and McDonalds to pay that off in a few months.
