    Would have been something I may have considered investing in a decade or two ago. I waited too long in my estimation to make it work for me. Good benefits there too, along with employee stock, although that isn't as good as it used to be.

    I've delivered to probably all their warehouses in Florida. Good places to deliver and was always treated good.
    Winn-Dixie was the worst; always some clown wanting a bribe to get anything done. I never paid any; too hard headed.

    They're building a port hub by the airport. For the trains hauling containers.

    Between the airport and the lake.

    Post #46 explained it.

    I think Amazon is out there somewhere too. Somewhere in that area.

    Well, yeah, kind of, but there is a significant number of people saying, cram it, and selling everything, buy a motorhome and live like gypsy's. It can be done, I've met several folks here that did that. Neighbor pisses you off, lot rent goes up ? Roll in the cords and adios,,and I shouldn't even say, but up north is where the bargains are. Too bad there's no jobs. I could buy a house, in the UP of Mich. for $30g's, move in condition. May need TLC from sitting, many of the homes have been on the market for years, but jobs dried up, everybody, especially families moved out. That's where you'll find me when the bottom on all this foolishness drops out.
