over $1400.00 per day($2,200,000@7%/5 year amortization)
Other providers will face unfair competion, and possibly Close because of the equipment debt they have to pay for.
4. Other doctors will relocate to this building and lease space.
5. Newspaper will donate space to the fund raising.
My question is...Was any space donated to the current providers?
6. Moffitt Cancer Center is a great item to mention to prospective buyers and serve to sell more houses.

What does this all mean....Less competition, fully leased new facility owned by the developer, more houses sold, and your ability to participate in a business plan that you pay into from the start of your retirement to your mortal illness to the grave....ie; buy a single family house $$$$, Village sells your house $$$$$, you move into assisted living $$$$, then use all the medical facilities $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$, then die!
Just my take on it...


I still buy computers even though I know it makes Steve Jobs or Bill Gates richer.

I still buy Honda even though it is a Japanese company. etc.

I like to know that I'm getting my money's worth regardless of who gets rich off my decision.

We pay for what we get and we get what we pay for. I'm happy with my decision and I'm happy to have Moffitt on board to make our homes retain their value well into the future (or hadn't you thought of that angle?).
