I am looking for nine (9) potential LB's with the thought of forming a corporation to go into competition with Anshe. The requirements are very few, viz.,

-- work one-tenth as hard (AS I DO) as Her Highness

AND

-- contribute your $1,000,000 to Corporation coffers. I shall be the Corp. Treasurer.

In fact, you are in if you only meet requirement #2!

Waiting anxiously for your response(s), I remain, as ever,

Obediently yours,
Bob Bravo

sounds intriguing bob. another land baron had brought this up inworld.

unfortunately my net assets do not even value the 1000000 L$ minimum required to be part of your equity group.

That would be awesome, a even bigger land baron that will all have to worry about buying land, then selling them at higher prices. Oh goody. What happened to public land, anyone from beta remember that.

Peace,
Alpha (aka Geeky Skidoo in beta)

Jauani,

May I remind you that L$ can be purchased at either GOM or IGE, and your funny money is (at this instant in real time) worth $0.812377 REAL money!?

Am awaiting your loot, er, response.

as always, I a....

hrmm....1,000 L is now trading on gom for around 4.03-4.07 or thereabouts..so lets just say 4.00usd for 1,000L
Now....you want nine partners to pay 1,000,000L each to start this land baron business? Let me do the math here...hrmmm....
Now...why would I want to send along to you 4,000.00usd to you? That don't sound like funny money to me. Ohhh...wait....YOUR being funny...I get it...HAHAHAHHAHAAHA
Unless I read you wrong or sumting...please explain this to me reaaaaaal slow

I wish I could say I had a million lindens to help rip off... i mean... provide a 'service' to potential land owners by returning all the trees and adding a healthy profit margin over and above what they could have bought it for, while offering them plenty of contempt and pouring scorn on their skills and morals, since fucking people over is something I'd enjoy immensely. Unfortunately, I'm not that feted :(

Let's not undervalue the Linden Here....

Right now, the Linden trades higher against the dollar than many world currencies.

For example the rate on the South Korean Won, this morning was $0.000975182
the Mexican Peso at $0.0897585

Just keeping some perspective. As world currencies go, the Linden isn't doing badly :)

LOL, interesting to see that the primary goal of this would be corporation is not to prosper but just to compete with someone... Utterly amusing to say the least :)
Maybe if you wanna build something solid (not to mention earn some credibility that would persuade people to entrust you wiith their money) you shall consider finding some more constructive goals.

WHile I'm not exactly a big fan of Land Barons (Nothing against you personally, Anshe, but you know..), competition will HOPEFULLY drive down land prices.. which is a good thing.

When I entered market I added competition and drove down land price considerably. Now many people copy me and this in turn drives down land price further. This is good for consumer. For me it means it force me stay innovative and develop new services and improve efficiency.

Market economy works.

Hrrmmmm....why do I have to cough up $4000 US RL and give it to YOU?

If I had $4000 RL US money, I would buy land with it on the auction, and sell it like you and Anshe do lol. Then if I just work 1/10th as hard, hey, even 1/20th as hard, I might be going places!

Or...Could you have the um....Approbation Attestation Evaluation Commission examine my current land holdings and determine if I could become a member of this corporation that way then without ponying up the cash?

Wait a minute. Let me re-think that. No, I don't think I want to do that LOL.

Can I have the key to the executive bathroom if I do this? Do I get a helicopter?

Uncle Bob, Uncle Bob,

You used to be such a nice avie.

But now, you're rich.

So it's all good.

I assume your blooming new enterprise has a sinecure or two tucked away for slacker relatives? My needs are simple.

Your FAVORITE long-lost ward,

- yoshi

PS You may not recall signing the adoption papers. It was at The Level about six months ago. You were roaring drunk at the time. At least, I hope you were; I'd hate to think that was you on a dance floor sober.

I'll have a couple of reliable witnesses, as soon as I can afford them. On an utterly unrelated note, could you possibly loan me $500L? I'm good for it; I'm starting a cush job soon.
