And country clubs don't make money. Are you saying they turn a million dollar profit off the members? If that's the case, I want better house brands, and send the beverage cart around every couple of holes! Maybe an ice cream stand on #12? If they're making a million off the members, I want it to be more like Shoal Creek. That's a club worth paying a premium for. Give me a caddie, AND a cart, and tell the Governor and Coach Chizik we'll let them through on #7.

And The Crossroads? Even if both people who go there each week spend $100 a visit, it can't be making money? Has anyone ever rented a bike, or a kayak? How many $18 loaves of bread are they selling? Are they deeding those garden beds? What is the going rate for 40 square feet of potting soil and 8 cross ties, and how many units are available?

And all these new cabins aren't pre-sold, are they? Why the sudden move to sell off property they said they would never sell, including cabins with established renters and waiting lists? Especially with so much in inventory in the developments that they haven't been able to sell? They've had buyers for most of those sites all along (the renters). But they're kicking out along County Line Road now, with the Ridge sitting there on one side, mostly unsold, Nichols Cove on the other, mostly unsold, and deeding the lots that once held renters in between? Lately it seems like they can't run people out fast enough to build a starter castle and sell it to somebody new. That rent is a reliable, monthly cash flow. Cash flow is what successful companies build, not shrink. The new cabins are deeded, not rentals. They're trading reliable monthly cash flow for a lump sum. Companies do that when they're growing, desperate, or shutting down. I don't see them growing, certainly not in this economy (do you?), and I don't think they're shutting down. Maybe I'm seeing it wrong, but as I said before, if they aren't hurting for money, they're sure doing all the things companies who ARE hurting for money do when they're trying to pay the bills. No concern for loyal customers, trade off the cash flow for a sudden chunk, pay the bill, and go on from there. JG Wentworth for corporations. Its my money and I want it now!
