Could Neverland Ranch Become A Casino?

Monday 12th May 2008

The career and private life of Michael Jackson are so far apart that you could be mistaken for thinking they were different people. Success in the pop world has only been mirrored by scandal and rumours in his private life which seems to have gone from bad to worse. However, is there a new life awaiting his infamous Neverland Ranch?

Colony Capital Group has acquired all of the Jackson debt, something which has affectively given them control of his assets, one of which is the Neverland Ranch. Rumours are building that the debt distress company are looking to convert the Ranch into a Neverland Casino – something which would very much compliment their existing portfolio of assets. Is Neverland Ranch suitable?

When you consider that all of the big casino developments of the day have other major attractions, what better attraction than a Fun Park. Jackson built up his Neverland Ranch into the largest privately owner theme park in the US and while he now resides in Bahrain for a number of reasons, changes may be afoot.

While Jackson is still very much loved by the majority of Americans, it will be interesting to see how they react to a casino in the grounds of his private world. The world of Michael Jackson never seems to stand still for too long!
