Foget Buying A House – Buy An Island Instead

For the price of buying a new home, you could own your own island!

I read an article recently talking about how Millenials are less likely to own their own homes, unlike their Baby Boomer parents. And that got me thinking about my own living situation of renting an apartment to call home. Then I thought wouldn't it be cool to own my own island! I mean think about that for a second... your very own private island. No traffic. No loud neighbors. It would be amazing! So I Google searched "buy a private island." Here are some of the more reasonably priced (about the cost to buy a modest home in Evansville) islands that I found.
