Walter Breuning, aged 114 and the oldest man in the world, has died:

He only ever owned property once in his entire life: an empty plot of land that he and his wife purchased for $15 during the Depression and sold for $25: a massive 60% profit! ^_^;

That venture aside, he was a renter all his life.

Vaya con Dios, Mr. Breuning!

What, is that like dying a virgin?

Well, considering what the typical Realtor (r) (tm) is said to do to people, I suppose in a sense the analogy is a good one. :P

The emphasis, on ANALogy. :)
