Few people that we know spend money, and lots of it, more wisely than Dan Gilbert. This short announcent by Venture for America says it all. An excerpt:
Last week, the Quicken Loans chairman and founder continued his quest to remake Detroit, with the goal to "turn downtown into a high-tech hub, where young entrepreneurs both live and work." He took another step toward achieving his goal by
announcing a $1.5 Million pledge to Venture for America to continue sending our talented and enterprising Fellows to Detroit and Cleveland over the next five years. Already, he’s pumped about $1 billion into the city to acquire almost three million square feet of real estate.
Not bad at all. See it all
