What an absolutely fantastic concept!!  (An expensive one too, seeing as how my vacations generally involve the free family beach house )

  • Wine maker
  • Baker
  • Style expert (Vague, but intriguing.  Can I be the "What Not To Wear" people?)

1)      Real Estate Mogul: I’d solve the US ‘house shortage’ crisis and bring real estate prices back to affordable levels.

2)      Top Mortgage Lender: Hey, I already figured out the ‘house shortage’ crisis. Now I’m making some money selling affordable mortgages.

3)      Business Start-up money machine: give me a good business plan and I will fund you business –with the gains from my mortgage business, of course.
