Would you buy your own island?

I think I'd really like living self sufficiently on an island, but being rich enough to buy a whole island I'd also be taking a lot of comforts with me too. And setting up the internet ....

I'm not really a tropical, beachy sort of person. Could I have a mansion in the country please? Surrounded by beautiful rolling hills and livestock and vegie and fruit gardens?

I'm very much a people person who is invigorated, inspired and stimulated by people, social interaction and the widespread selection of food, drink and culture available at my finger tips. An island retreat to get away for a week would be ideal but ultimately I'm a social being who loves the snow and skiing.

Island it is.

I wouldn't mind an island - but it would want to have a high-point that was NEVER going to flood. With rising sea levels, one can never be too careful!

I'd like both!

I will have one of these thanks, no question.

I'm over living in a City, with all it's noise-smog-people-crime.
And Bills!!

If I had the option I probably would want to own an Island for myself. I however wouldn't want to have it all for myself. With all the modern luxary geared to me alone. This sounds rather boring. I would use the island to conduct much entertaining of guests or some kind of business.

It does sound rather cool!

YES, if it was always going to be safe! My father died in the late '70's, but he often talked about buying an island. I'll have to ask my mother why he didn't! As she now has full on dementia, she might not remember.
