On a serious note - the businesses that succeed here are those which realize this is a seasonal market. When the snowbirds have arrived for their winter stay, TV is an active market for almost everything. When the snowbirds leave, those businesses that haven't planned their cash flow and expenses for the snowbird exodus, and the accompanying 4-6 months of reduced customer base, go belly-up. The restaurant and specialty shop turnover is very prevalent come mid-summer.
