Where's the Opportunity?

[Yankees338]

I decided to start a simulation on here, similar to things I've done in business classes at school. I ran the idea by MJ and he approved. This is how it will work:

• I (or anyone else who wants to) will post a scenario with a given set of circumstances. These can include but are not limited to location, market conditions, current events, natural disasters, etc...
• Anybody who would like to participate will come up with a plan of action that will include the startup of a business or a focus on particular investments. Please explain why you chose these and how it will work.
• Others will discuss and critcize (constructively) any ideas they find interesting.

The purpose of this is to stimulate each person's creative genius. Everybody has a little entrepreneur in them; some just need work a little to unleash it. The idea of this is to encourage thinking out-of-the-box. Don't post ideas like selling flowers on a street corner - be creative!

Now, I have to get to my homework now (yes, I'm starting it at 12:30AM...what an idiot) so I will post the example I sent to MJ.

If you're making any assumptions on parts of the scenario you thought were unclear, please post them in your idea.

The scenario:

Location:

• Palm Beach County, Florida

Key/random facts:

• Real Estate market is down.
• Population consists of a large majority of seniors.
• Close proximity to the beach.
• Upscale area.
• Golfing is a popular hobby among residents.

*Disclaimer: some of the facts that I have included in these scenarios are not representative of the current conditions, but I've included them for a purpose. For example, I don't know about the current RE market conditions, but I included that the market there was in a downward trend because I'd like to see more entrepreneurial ideas for businesses rather than just investing in RE.

Hopefully somebody gets one of these moments...:idx:

I encourage you all to take part in this. Happy brainstorming...
