    I'm 40 and never even seen an ocean. I went to Florida once just to jump in the ocean once at least. But soon as I hit Jacksonville I got a call from my brother and his wife went into labor 6 weeks early and he needed me so I guess that's what home is. It's the place where you not only feel welcome and comfortable and loved but it's where you also can return those feelings to others that has offered anything you need

      You should see the ocean at least once before you die. Not that 40 is old. But do it before you are

    Home is where my loved one is, no building could provide this shelter. I see why Neckar Island is Richards home.
    Richard is an inspiration and role model, thanks for letting us "in",

Generation P - feminine fucking pussies. This is also why the women are not in the home nurturing the families. What do they get? 1 adult child and ? more

    Home to me is a place of health, happiness and positivity; a place for inspiration and sharing of ideas; a place to rest and play, and a place of love where family and friends gather. It wouldn't really matter on what piece of land I built my home upon, it would still be made up of the same things that matter most to me, although I think the surroundings definitely add to the feeling of place. What a beautiful and inspiring place to call home! Great vision in imaginging the possibilities and making them happen.

    Sir Richard is not just smart, but blessed too.The circle around him seems to be, so inviting and Positive. He definitely appears to be a down to earth & genuine man with love for little things too not just his huge toys... I love how he creates opportunities for the masses by involving himself and supporting new business ideas. It seems he cares for the world. Thats not only great!! but very sexy!!
    Thumbs up!!! for Sir Richard..

    I really like this story because in any success story, there are setbacks and things that don't always work out as we had wanted. Never let disappointments crush your dream. May our dreams always be working toward the greater good for all and create an atmosphere that inspires others to do the same.

    I'm not sure if Sir Richard is smart, a genius or just lucky but he has created a vast circle around him of positivity and what appears to be a genuine interest in aiding wherever he can. From what I've read about him, he has created opportunities for the masses by involving himself and supporting new business ideas. I'm starting to think he may be one great person.. "Home:" It is where you and your family, along with those who visit feel safe. It is your safe haven.! It is your families safe haven.!

    Richard wants to know what home means to me. Well, here it is.
    To me, home is not a place. I spent many, many years trying to feel "at home" where ever I was living. I have finally figured out that, for me, home is a feeling. At this point in my life, home is wherever my long time love is. He is my strength, my warmth and my protection. He offers safety and security that no building could ever provide. He is my home.

    Home is a place where the world cant see or hear you if you so wish, this includes the driveway and garden area. A place you could sun bathe without the neighbours seeing you or hearing your conversation. A place you could start a power tool at 3am without worry someone may disapprove, or throw a party. A place where you cant hear other people or barking dogs when you are there. I understand this isnt possible with more than 7 billion people on the planet a lot of people have to live in appartments in a polluted city. This however is my idea if home.

      Craig Johnson I disagree with you. I think he doesn't need profits from his home. The price tag is definitely to keep the resort unreachable for 99% of the world. He would be making a huge profit if the price was a $1,000 a night. The resort would be booked constantly. This island is not about money. It's a place for family, friends and chosen people.
