This is not a joke.

To buy a part of steem island all you have to do is transfer the amount of steem you want to contribute to the steem island account (@beep). @beep is an account that I set up for a friend, he made one post, and got discouraged with the response he got. He's a get rich quick kind of guy. Don't worry he doesn't have the password lol. All the Steem collected will be held in steem power so that all contributors can keep an eye on it.

After we collect at least 1000 steem I will form a corporation named steem island. The Corporation will be owned by all the people who put in steem. 1 steem will equal 1 share. All the steem held in the Steem Island account (@beep) will be held in trust for steem island and for everyone who has contributed steem. If for some reason this does not work out in one year's time period, then everyone will be returned 100% of their contribution.

Once we have enough steem in the account to buy the island then no more contributions will be accepted under any circumstance. If and when the account becomes overfunded the last people putting in the steem that created the overfunding Will be refunded.

I will be the CEO of steem island corporation. Then there will be 5 more officers - V.P., Second V.P. etc. These people will be the top 5 contributors 1 being the largest contribution, 2 being the second largest contribution and so on.

There will also be 10 people appointed to the Steem Island Corporation board of directors. These people will be the first 10 people that contribute 100 steem or more. So if you want to be on the board make sure you are one of the first 10 people to contribute at least 100 steem!

Contributions must be made in increments of 1 steem. 1 steem is the minimum contribution.

IF YOU INVEST, PLEASE PRINT OR SAVE THIS POST. THIS AND ALL SUBSEQUENT POSTS WILL COMPROMISE "The Agreement " . Just in case any disputes arise 😊.

P.S. If this works out The first Steemstock will be moved from Austin to STEEM ISLAND!!!

FULL STEEM AHEAD!!!!!!

I love you man, but considering my political and real estate experience.... as well as my work here and IRL with social justice issues, I have seen the damage done by people with money and not the right skills to run things

This has been demonstrated time and again here on Steemit, which you are tying to the project.

There are some great people on Steemit and some very very nice people and whales.

Too often here and IRL, real damage is done by people with $$ stake, and no real names, personas, experience or vision and some are flat out mean and abusive, which fits the sociopath clinical profile.

You would think being in the legal profession, you would have plenty of experience in some of this stuff I am saying.

This is constructive criticism. This is not a shot at anyone, but I give you the flagging abuse on here by people with money and the inability to deal with real people and real problems.

Even the fact you asked me to view this today, with no other msgs privately, with my wealth of real estate, land planning and political community experience shows the money is what is value here at the top positions, which are the most important.

The rest of the appointments are token appointments with very little power and likely none, because the $$ stakeholders like usual will run things and the minions (appointments) will go along with what they say, no matter if it is RIGHT or not, for the long term plans or sustainability.

Not something that is likely good planning.

My 2 ¢ buddy.

Thank You for you 2 cents brother! You opinion always matters to me! 😊

Wow it would be nice, Just upvoted and resteemed to help!

This is a great idea. I hope that it works and succeeds. I just powered up my steem so I can't send any, but if I do get 1 steem somehow, ill send it.

Awesome! Thanks! It was actually @monkimo idea!

We only need about 1 million steem to be able to buy it at the current price. We can do it. FULL STEEM AHEAD!

Yes we can for sure!! I'll put in at least 1000 steem

😉

One thing though, wouldn't it be better to make another account for this instead of using your friend's old account?

Yes your right. I get on it. This way I can post from there and that account will get all the money from the posts too!

Yup, and it would seem less weird for people instead of sending to an account called beep.

lol absolutely right. If anyone sends steem to beep I will transfer it to the new account

Has Deer Island been finalized as the choice? Not to be picky or anything, but does it have a lot of gators? I'd rather have an island without gators, caymans or boa constrictors, if possible. Those are the things I think of when I think "South Florida." Which is probably really ignorant...Anyway, love the idea.

what will the island be used for? what are the plans for it after its bought? There will be properity taxes how will they be payed?

It would be used for steemit events and what ever else we decided on. Expenses will be paid by the corporation. I guess I better figure out how much the taxes will be lol. Thanks for the input!

What if after buying the island and starting the corporation , turn it into a vacation spot so the corporation can make some income off of it. Then everyone involved could make a profit on it. Does not make much since to buy a 1.5 million dollar island just for steem events.

I thought this was just a symbolic buying of island. I though the funded steem will then be use to upvote each other. So this is really a real thing, buying a physical island?

Not to be a grumpus, but what's the tallest point on the island?
Because, you know, They say the sea level is rising, and Florida is
set to lose a lot of ground, as it were.

Maybe we could buy a parcel at a higher elevation that will become
an island by the time we're ready to move to it ...

Just thinking out loud ...

That's an idea. I'll see what I can find! FULL STEEM AHEAD!!!!

Here is more islands for sale. This is awesome you put this crowdfunding together. It is a wishing well. Everyone through their change into it and the STEEMFEST island will come for sure! I have resteemed my brother FULL STEEM AHEAD!

My favorite site.

What an idea. This will benefit the contributor but the big advantage will be the attention of news media for such a huge transaction in steem. It's win win. I am in!!

Awesome!! Yes I agree! I am setting up a steemisland account that way the account can gain its own value. If there is any steem sent to beep I will transfer it over once the new account is set up

Please update once you have setup the new account. I will contribute in the pool!!

Cool idea.i love it👍👍👍
