why, what do you want to invest in in the times of falling stock market indexes?

Does it have to be a Desert Island? I don't do too well in intense heat, perhaps we could see if they'll sell us Canada instead?

Also that we we would have plenty of space

nope, if we find an island with a bunch of palm trees and build our huts on the beach, we'll be ok. it's easier to take over an island than a piece of some country, imagine the costs of security, we'd have to hire the French Foreign Legion or something, we can't afford those guys!

O.K desert Island it is then..........but preferably one with no poisonous spiders on.

But we'd probably still need some security from foreign invasion. Any genius aspies on here know how to make Killer robots?

You are all most welcome to take over this island - I don't mind sharing at all!

There is plenty of room for all of us, and a choice of environments to suit everyone.

Don't worry about the local NTs - I'm sure we could eventually train them.

eventually someone will come up with something like that. in the meantime, we could hire some professionals. there's plenty of unemployed soldiers in bars of Johannesbourg. we'll take the ones we find, bail out some more from prisons of Zimbabwe.

these are real mean guys, who would do anything for the money, no questions asked :P

O.K seems like a good plan. But if we start investing in gold and have all these mean guys with guns around they'll probably try and steal it. I suggest we place rings around there necks that make their heads explode if they disobey orders, like in Battle Royal.

Not to be sadistic you understand, just to ensure loyalty.

There's at least one long-lost tribe somewhere in Africa, who refuse to have anything to do with the outside world, apart from exchanging a few shiny things, which they usually manage to do without letting anybody see them. They don't get invaded because they're like a listed building, very rare, so the conservation freaks make sure they get left alone.

Now, we'll need some boot polish, grass skirts, bows, arrows, and a few authentic Iron Age grunts..........

I hadn't heard of neo-hippies until I saw them mentioned on this thread.

Many neo-cons were Marxists or leftwingers of some sort, so maybe there are neo-hippies who were ultra straight or right wing.
