I don't think you should choose a career in real estate either. If Honda thought it was worth that much they would have done it themselves.
I don't want I career in real estate I am retired, over my lifetime I have owned many investment properties (aided by tax incentives and negative gearing) and done very well out of them. How about you?
Ever heard of core business? Honda's core business is not real estate this was probably the best offer they received to take the whole of a very large parcel of land off their hands in one go. Perhaps you could offer an alternative to the figures I supplied instead of suggesting employment opportunities. DuckDuckGo is your friend.
There is nothing good about this story however much you try to spin the tale and make personal attacks to hide that fact, a major employer has left and an investment company has bought the land, they will produce very little, employ very few and make a very nice profit which will go overseas.
If you look at their European investment portfolio it appears to be centred in Poland perhaps they view the UK as a new Poland with rich pickings to be made?
I know you want Brexit to be a success and I hope that it is but stories like this are not good signs however much you may wish that they were. Only time will tell.
