I don't know if any of you heard about this, but a Japanese billionaire, Genshiro Kawamoto, bought up a bunch of properties here in Hawaii and gave them away for free to a bunch of po'folk. From what I hear, this dude sounds like a real ass. Sure he gave away a bunch of million dollar mansions, but he's also gave his tennants short notice evictions so he could take advantage of rising house prices. I doubt this is a random act of charity since this is the first we've really heard of him doing anything like this and consindering he's ****ing rich, he probably doesn't put a second thought into anything. Probably some half-baked publicity scheme.
Old news, I know, but I thought I'd bring it here.
