SOME MO’ FOR FREEPERS>>>>>

Jackie recently gave Click Orlando a tour of the property, showing that construction is underway.

She says that she plans to welcome guests from around the world in the spring of 2020 for a grand opening fundraiser in honor of her her late daughter Victoria.

Victoria died in 2015 of an opioid overdose.

The couple started the charity Victoria’s Voice and plans to hold a fundraiser for the grand opening of their home.

‘We’ve gotten our strength back emotionally through the healing and we’re back on track,’ Siegel told Click Orlando. ‘We know our daughter would have wanted us to finish it and do the incredible things with the charity events.’

Just three weeks ago, a fire broke out in one of the home’s elevators after a welder started the small blaze, but it did not cause structural damage.

‘I think it’s the only house in America that’s not only under construction, but under renovation, at the same time,’ Jackie said of the fire.

Workers were seen pumping concrete into one of the six pools on the property.

‘The grand pool has a waterfall that then goes into a lap pool,’ Jackie said. ‘We have the health spa, the bowling alley, the wine cellar, the servant’s quarter and some guest suites overlooking the lake.’

Jackie says the home is valued at $100million.

Methadone and Zoloft toxicity.

Unusual combo.

Cool. ICE now knows where to drop off a few busloads of migrants.

Built on the stupidity of millions who bought timeshares. Everyone who ever succumbed to the temptation of a “free dinner” and ended up making the worst real estate investment possible in the known universe, now gets to look at this monstrosity and say to themselves “I helped build that”.

Enjoy.

I’m sure God made that call.

He’s in a better position than us to decide.

He has all the facts :)

Had a friend whose father died in a car accident when he was 16.

He thought xanax and alcohol would numb the mental pain enough to cope.

Don’t think he PLANNED on never waking up again.

But that’s what happened.

Maybe he did.

But like I said, I’ll leave it to the expert.

Billionaires fund raising for their own charity.

As has been pointed out, rich people do not use their own money.

So the time share scam is paying for their mansion

Hopefully, they are philanthropists who provide just employment to thousands (David Siegel has/had 8,000 employees) and do a lot of quiet charity. (Jackie) Siegel is on the board of directors of Westgate Resorts and Ocoee Thrift Mart, a charity which she owns and founded.[17][18][19] She also founded the charity Locals Helping Locals.[20]

  • And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:
  • And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?
  • And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.
  • And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.
  • But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?
  • So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.

Keep in mind, though, that every time-share victim is a voluntary victim. They stepped up and handed over their cash voluntarily.

Tax-payers are coerced. Big, big, big, big, big, big difference.

If you're stupid enough to bite on the time share bait, then you really shouldn't complain. No one put a gun to the heads of these people and said "buy a time share or we'll kill you."

Timeshares make me think of the saying: “Can’t cheat an honest man”

I’m glad it will be bigger than Nolan Djokovic’s new place. America is better than Serbia.
