What I don't understand is all the concern about how much profit the developer has made with TV.
TV has been a work-in-process for a couple decades. The developer - the "family" - has invested heavily in money, time and effort into TV. They've absorbed a lot of risk and worked like the dickens for many years to make this thing called TV happened.
If the "family" has made millions from TV - good for them. If they wanted to bleed the "golden goose" dry, TV would have "gone public" a long time ago instead of remaining a closed corporation. As smart businesspeople, they seem to have recognized the very-long-term profitability of the TV venture.
Whether a columnist from the Orange County fishwrap believes I have spent my money wisely or not is of no matter. I have piece of mind here, a lot of personal security, and much fun - a lot more than when I lived in Metro Orlando.
It's a beautiful day in The Villages......
