Like termites or rodents they will spread out and damage even more real estate...

True story.

Well if you're gonna take the leap of selling lion meat, going a step further with illegally importing knives probably isn't a bridge too far.

A distant cousin of mine lives in New York, he bought a two-bedroom condo on the Upper East side when it was dirt cheap in the seventies and it's worth an absolute fortune now. If I recall he's divorced with no kids and has no plans on moving, I wouldn't wanna be around for that battle over the property if he were to pass away before getting his affairs in order.
