The debate regarding TV tax free bonds has been going on for several years with the IRS with no closure. Goes to show you how complicated the Government can make things and how inept they are to even interpret their own rules and regulations. I do know this----Disney World was built under the same concept. The difference I can see in the two is that you can buy a piece of the action of Disney by buying a public traded company stock. Of course, no way to buy into the profits of The Villages. Just a thought. Before I retired (while looking at retirement communities) I had the opportunity to meet Mr. Harold Schwartz who was very warm and friendly to my wife and I as we visited the Sales Office. He use to "hang around" The Villages and greet people as they visited and was very friendly and personable. We have never met Mr. Morse who I understand is very very private. I've met a few people with "real money" in my life and they were always very nice.....Is this a Great County or what?
