This guy is AMAZING ! he is trying to single handedly rebuild Detroit !
God bless him ! his is single handedly doing what the city council hasn't done in 40 years !
Hey ,he has DEEP pockets !
I just hope his friends with deep pockets step up and do the same thing !
Dan to his deep pocket buddies :"come on in,the waters fine " !
:-)
Maroun :"no way ! I'm draining this puppy !"

On a side note reading this http://www.marketwatch.com/story/roc...ies-2012-12-18
made me light headed LOL .
This is simply AMAZING ! no matter how cynical you are ,money talks and Mr Gilbert has a lot and not shy about spending it !
He's not a dumb guy, and when he gets Metro-West Appraisal, the nation's largest independent residential real estate appraisal company, announces it will move its national headquarters to downtown Detroit's Chrysler House in March 2013. this is big news ! he's not making them move downtown they see something big about to happen .
They aren't moving downtown to do him a favor !
This simply hasn't been done in over 40 years !
No matter how much he's "writing" off some of these companies , he's not writing ALL these companies off .
