I have been in the commercial real estate financing industry for 25 years and even did a stint for a few years during the last financial crisis with a federal regulator. I

I am a legal adviser for several corporate bodies in Nigeria.

If you are able body and can work why should anyone subsidize your healthcare?

There seemed to be confusion in that they wanted to buy multiple properties in multiple counties as a "package" for the project, but were having trouble fitting that in with their regulatory scheme, rather than one large investment, such as an office building.
