(Excerpt) Count plenty of cool kids among the mountain's 50 investors: PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel, Olympic-level snowboarder Danny Davis, the founders of Wired magazine and pop music hit maker Dr. Luke, responsible for songs like "Since U Been Gone" and "I Kissed A Girl," each pitched in anywhere between $500,000 and $2 million to invest in the mountain purchase. In return, they can opt to build a mountain home.
"I believe in them," says Lukasz Gottwald, who goes by Dr. Luke. "I do have other real estate in other places, but this is a unique opportunity and a unique place. I hope that when my house is done ... I can ski and snowboard straight out of it, on this beautiful mountain." (He's on the audio clip......sounds funnier the way he says it on there, like he can't believe it himself :-)
oook...
wow, that is very nice. lucky Dr Luke.
I guess up to $2 million each just for the land/location isn't that bad at all considering what they're all getting. I'd love to live somewhere like that. Luke will probably stay there a few days a year haha!
