Become the Mayor of your Own Town. Wyoming Town for sale....$ 100,000.
LINK TO TOWN

QOUTE:

"If you've got a spare $100,000, you could potentially become the owner of a small Wyoming town that's set to be auctioned off next month by its sole resident.

After more than 30 years of residing in the unincorporated community, town "mayor" Don Sammons says it's finally time to move on.

"Don, 'The Mayor', is retiring after 20 wonderful years in his town," Sammons writes on the website for his business, the Buford Trading Post, a gas station and store. "This entire, income producing, town is for sale; the house, the Trading Post, the former school house, along with all the history of this very unique place."

Buford, located between Cheyenne and Laramie, was first founded in the 1860s and was once home to an estimated 2,000 residents before the Transcontinental Railroad was rerouted."

I'll buy it, if 25 or more of you work from home people will agree to move there. Even those on a nice government welfare check will do...

Comes with 10 acres off the bat. Not too bad. I guess once you build up revenue you could buy up more land

Just like a city in Colorado made the right offer to a rancher who sold his property and the city expanded like crazy with multi billion dollars worth of corporations that moved in.

And while Sammons is Buford's sole resident, he's hardly alone out there. Sammons says the trading post is visited by roughly 1,000 customers per day.

Really!?!?

Even if you couldnt raise the money for more land and to bring in more busineses, it would still make a cozy spot to retire.

I wonder what kind of Government funding and money it would be eligible for. Like for land and building restoration.

Im out, due to certain obligations I have, but it was my pleasure to post this. And yes, the lil bit of extra freedom would be awesome . Youd be the Mayor, someone else the Sheriff. And someone else a tax collector. lol.

Did you know , the entire state of Wyoming has been earmarked as the "New Israel" ? There are plans on paper to relocate the people of Israel to Wyoming as a means to settle the Palestinian conflict .
