Pssst Wanna buy an island? A story about an island for sale caught my eye this past week.
First, The New York Times had a story about Rat Island, a sliver of rock that is mostly underwater part of the time in Long Island Sound.
You could take you boat to lower Manhattan in minutes. That is if you built a home on the island. And a sewer system. And a power Plant. And....
Then someone did buy it...for $160,000...and CNN had it's own story about the new owner.
That's a lot more than The Dutch supposedly paid for all of Manhattan Island.
If you're really into an island paradise, try this one in Florida. It can be yours for $10-Million. For that, you even get power.
