Would you move for 1 Million dollars?

What a no-brainer! It's a trailer park! It doesn't matter if it's waterfront or not. I imagine with the 700k profit *dramatic sigh* one might be able to find something comparable. That's like turning down 5-star cuisine and curling up with a cheese sandwich.

I saw that story also. I kept saying they are crazy. I would take the money. You can find another nice place for that kind of money.

I definately would take the money! Plus, I lived in Florida for almost 5 years. I got tired of the hurricane cr@p! So I would definately take the money and move elsewhere.

If I had a trailer and I only payed $150 for it and they offered a million dollars I would definately take it. It's just good business sense. And with a million dollars I could do a whole bunch of those senior citizen cross country tours and European tours, etc. And I could probably buy another trailer or even a condo in another location.

there is obviously a reason why they are being offered this money...so i would take it while i could...you cant buy a lifestyle but there may be a similar community or place that could become a community with the same people to move together...who knows... if able to stay and i loved where i lived, i probably wouldnt move though..but they have to realize the community wont be the same as some may move...

Yes, I would move. But this opportunity wouldn't have been given to me because I would never have moved there in the first place. (Yes, as unbelieveable as it sounds, I'm not a fan of Fla., even though I was born there and have had opportunities to live there.) I understand the senior citizens' hesitancy to move. When you're older, you don't want to be uprooted. But my motto is to never live anywhere that has permanent "evcauation route" signs along the roadside. :P So, show me the money! I'd make my own new way of life with it.

I guess it would depend on whether I love the place I am at. Some places are irresistibly beautiful and unreplaceable, I once lived near a huge empty deep plot of land which would fill up when it rained and make for a huge pond. Birds would come by and make their noises, children from nearby would splash around, it was absolutely gorgeous and I could wake up to it right in front of my bedroom window. It was a rented house and we moved to our own one but I always cherish that place and its rare beauty and wish we never moved! But if someone offered me a million dollars and I could choose a place which was as scenic, why not! But..I guess people who have a whole community thing going and have eased into that way of life might find it difficult. I am a to-myself kind of person, so its not a huge thing for me..

oh yeah, id move for that sort of money. Im sure that with a little looking and bargaining there would be other great areas. if you only bought in 2 years ago, i cant see that u would be that settled or attatched and i assume they would allow u to look for new property in the mean time

well, even if i did love the life i was living, 1 million dollars is somethingto think about. i mean, if i were an old person living alone in a trailer it's really a good opportunity for me to try something else. and it's in my personality to go for good opportunities. besides, i don't think the people who were buying the lots would let some go and some stay. they definitely have some plans of what to do with the land so they'll probably do everything to clear it out.

Definitely yes! Take the money and run. Build or buy a nicer pice of property. They dont have to move out of the city they are in, just to a new and nicer home. I would do it in a heartbeat. What are they putting there in place of the trailer park community? Since they are offering so much, I am sure it is going to be something (perhaps a hotel)that will bring in a large revenue.

I would definitely sell and move on. I just recently moved from Louisiana (totally devastated by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita) and believe me nobody offered me a million dollars. Sure would have made my life easier. I understand that these folks probably like where they are living and will miss their neighbors and the community but what they don't realize is that several folks in the community will accept the offer and the "cozy" community feeling will be altered. No, you can't buy a way of life, but with that kind of money you have a pretty good chance of finding a way of life that you like better.

i would move if they gave me a million dollars i would just buy a bigger house close to where i lived

i've seen that news, and i honestly cant believe those guys! there's a lot that you can do with 1 million' if it were offered to me, id take it.

OMG, Yes I would move. First off, if I lived in a trailer, a million dollars would buy me a nice home. Yes, I have left a wonderful community recently, BUT realized who my "true" friends were. I now talk to very few. Life is too short... I would not mind moving (research areas to live) and make new friends. If you have real true friends, they will always be a part of your life.

For a million dollars, sure! I mean, I might love where I live, but a million dollars can buy a rather large home somewhere else, in quite a lovely neighbourhood at that. I mean if anything, it's an adventure, a little bit of change; and you're being paid handsomely for it too! I really don't see the downside. I think some people are just plain stubborn. As you said, most are senior citizens, and we all have to admit that the elderly are rather stubborn.

i would sell,if a hurricane came in an destroy the property you would be out anyway.i justed move a few blocks away

I would like to go but my country is better then tooooooooo

yah sure whats to decide living in a trailer or being able to buy a house somewhere

Yes. If i had 1 million dollars i would move and make a new life :D

Well, I live in South Florida, and if I lived in a mobile home and were offered a million dollars to move, no one would have to ask me twice. With the hurricanes we get, I don't understand how anyone living in Florida would live in a mobile home. With a million dollars you can move into a site built home and still enjoy the same Florida lifestyle, but with less worries about hurricane season.
