This has been a long process. We have had one acre of land since 1988 and the other acre of land since 1990.

This was born out of necessity, ... We wanted to have a certain size property and we only had so much land to work with. We realized we had to put the parking underground, so we came up with a plan and put it in place. When you look at the cost of an acre of land on the Strip, you need to make your best usage of that land.

I was selling land in Scotland for over £2,000 an acre and buying it in Estonia for £25 an acre.

I lived on a farm until I was 7 during the Great Depression, ... It didn't affect us, though, because our farm was self-sufficient. We had cows, hens, chicken, pigs and a donkey. The only thing we bought from the store was flour and sugar. ... My grandmother, Sarah Carter, smelled good, like apples, because she was always busy making apple cake or apple pie.

I recently sold a house in Laguna for $3.5 million. It was on about 2,000 square feet of land, maybe a twentieth of an acre, and the house might cost about $500,000 if you wanted to replace it. So the land sold for something like $60 million an acre.

Originally we were going to put cows on the land. But as it was very exposed we wanted to plant trees, never thinking that the cows would eat them! So we decided on ducks instead.
