Look. when POWDER mag and saga went under I offered to buy it. They aren’t that expensive. There are ski resorts for sale out there that could easily be purchased by NS members. Where is the crowdfund?

Wait, now I'm getting concerned. What if NS gets dropped by the parent company the same way Saga did? Can a red name reassure me there is a contingency plan?

if NS goes under, we liquidate all the remaining assets and commission a 30 ft marble statue of X_Ankilla in Keystone village. That will be the center of a new plaza that will forever be a live-action NS forum. As Jerry’s walk through the plaza they feel compelled to yell about big horns and full tilts and ask where chads gap is

So this is not just a time difference thing? EU here.. I'm going to be honest, I was not on NS a lot for a couple of years as I was working full time in the ski industry and it was a bit too much. What happend to NS? I remember the sale, everything went downhill from there?


btw: Management buy out

Okay so my idea is that we get in touch with the “my dad only has $5 Mil” kid. While his dad may only have $5 Mil I feel like this buyout plan could roll with that.



This being said it may be inadequate because after all it is “only $5 Mil.”

No I’m not wealthy nor is my family. I just know that NS as an entity is not very valuable or marketable. I would love to hear an estimate
