Each generation of the Morse family is greedier than the one before. Other than that,The Villages is a great place.
And the only theater still open, has rarely had a movie sold out. Even playing old movies, trying to attract more business. You can still go to breakfast buffet, with only a small worry about sneezing contaminated food

The age old..Why did KBs close, in “07” it’s heyday people spent money, therefore profit. Then the custom of ordering water, and sitting for hours at a time, was the downfall of KB’s. So blame residents who were toooooo cheap to buy food and drink. Residents failed to keep KBs

Everyone knows taking a loss on business either on Theaters or KB’s will always cause a closure. As far as family they could always sell out, and TV could just dry up and blow away. I doubt that’s ever going to happen. Maybe one of your family could marry into developer family, bet you would have a different thought process
