In 1988 Michael Jackson bought a California ranch and named it after the island where children never grow up. In 2015 it went on sale for 100 million dollars. Nobody bought it.
Before that, Neverland was searched by police twice, and Jackson stood trial and was acquitted. He never lived there again. His workers went unpaid, the rides were trucked away, and the zoo was emptied.
The price kept falling for five years. Then a billionaire bought it for 22 million, after seeing it from the air, and called it a land banking opportunity.
