The perfect birthday present
by rally on Feb.18, 2009, under general
If you’re wondering what you’re gonna get me for my birthday this year (or heck, if you’re scratching your head what you’re going to give me for my half-birthday which is coming up in 2 weeks), you’re in luck, cuz I’m just going to tell you:
The town of Albert, TX is on sale for $900,000.
That’s right. The whole town. I think it’s a couple acres large, and comes with a few buildings. Population: 4 (well, 5… I think they recently had a kid).
Take a look at the CNN report about it, too: http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/living/2009/02/18/grace.town.for.sale.kens

LOL omg that’s awesome. If I had that much spare cash, I might’ve done it!

Agreed, Awesome! It’s only 13 acres though. Maybe they can throw in a lake.

I would totally buy a town. That’s fucking sweet.
