He got caught in a time distortion and wound up on Earth in the early 21st Century. He was able to survive by becoming a construction contractor in Star's Hollow Connecticut.

Regardless of how "civilized" humans are, borders are just lines on sheets of paper. The real border is where you can place your feet by use (or threat) of violence. The law between nations is the law of the jungle.

I told my friend about all my problems, and he said, "Cheer up! Things could be worse!"
So, I cheered up, and sure enough, things got worse.

Agreed. #1 advice from anyone is "invest in real estate because it's the only thing they're not making any more of." So even if a huge corporation owns nothing and just rents every inch of office space, most likely their investment strategy includes commercial real estate.

Anecdotally, I happen to know of some people who threw a ton of money into local commercial buildings pre-pandemic, because that was the way the investor-class herd was going. These are people that I consider very wealthy, but are small potatoes compared to most of these big corporate CEO types. Now that they own all these buildings, they're squawking because they can't rent them.

Interesting. I remember questioning the Apollo class when they showed up on Unification, mostly because (at the time) they looked so much like TNG-era Romulan warbirds that I wondered why someone would think they were Vulcan. And prior to First Contact, we hadn't seen a Vulcan ship in canon (that I can recall). It makes more sense though if they developed annular (or annular+nacelle) designs.
