I’m headed to Panama shortly where I look forward to meeting up with my friends and colleagues in the Atlas 400 group. We’re going to an exclusive deep-sea fishing resort for a few days, and afterwards I plan on taking up some unfinished business in Panama.
One of the things on my agenda is to revisit the sustainable community concept that I began discussing a few months ago. This is something that I really want to do, for personal reasons… I’ve always wanted a place that doesn’t rely on ‘the system’ for food, water, power, and security.
In my travels around the world, though, I’ve not yet found a community that provides this, at least up to my own standards… it’s possible that one exists, I just haven’t seen it yet.
I have a detailed plan in mind that will start small and allow the community to grow as the market dictates; my biggest challenge is time. At the moment, I have several other business and investment obligations on my plate, and I’m hesitant to commit to another major undertaking.
As I said, though, for personal reasons I would really like to develop this community, and I’ll be making a final decision once I meet with my team of architects and engineers in Panama over the next 2-weeks. Stay tuned.
On to this week’s questions:
