Re: if you had $1.5 million...

How many supporting members do we have, and how much is $1.5 mil divided by that?

Re: if you had $1.5 million...

I used to work with a guy, and he was a member here, that would check http://www.missilebases.com/ on a regular basis to see if there was anything that he liked and/or could afford.

Some of the nicer ones would make nice homes if you can get over the eccentricities.

Re: if you had $1.5 million...

Could TG pool their money and purchase a real HQ for us. Servers would stay nice and cool in the basement of a missile base. And we could all fly to DC and meet up for lan events.

Re: if you had $1.5 million...

Re: if you had $1.5 million...

Don't forget its a buyers market... real estate is desperate to sell. We could probably get a great interest rate on our mutual mortgage. Or perhaps wait for them to forclose?

Re: if you had $1.5 million...

Seriously, if we had enough SM money to buy that place, how many of us would just up and move there? I'd be on the first flight to washington. That would be so freaking awesome.

Re: if you had $1.5 million...

wasn't there a show called uh... I forget (LOL)
but it showed people redecorating/fixing up big/weird places?

I think my brother in law told me about one where someone fixed up a missile silo.

And I'd move... but my wife would stay, which means my daughter would also... hence I'd be staying... (darn that two year old is cute)

Re: if you had $1.5 million...

If I had 1.5 million I would probably start off by going on a PVC/resin/lego shopping spree.

Re: if you had $1.5 million...

There's a lot of things I would buy with $1.5 Million before a Missile Base. That said, if I had like $3 or $4 million, it would definately be worth considering.
