World ocean temperatures in 2021 were the hottest ever recorded

Personally I would not buy property south of the 45th parallel anymore (in the northern hemisphere). Even north of that we have seen shockingly high temperatures. Anything south of that will become a hellscape within our lifetime.

Maybe the futurist should not hold real estate at all - keep wealth in stocks and rent and let the landlords place their bets on chaos theory.

Latitude will have less impact than altitude from the projections I have seen. Bogota may be less impacted than Anchorage.

it depends if it's east or west. Chicago is 42o, similar to Madrid, but I think Madrid will have bigger problems.

Obama bought a property in Martha's Vineyard, why would a former President with all the knowledge about global warming buy it?

Cause he’s rich and can afford it regardless what happens. Why would you pay for ice at a convenience store when you could make it yourself at home.

I dont think rich people like to lose money.

Would you pay for ice when you know it would already melt when you get it?

If I could use it for 20 years first, definitely.

Obama will be 80 in 20 years. Maybe OP means he will be close to death so he won’t care about climate change affecting his vacation home.

ya, I'm saying that even if climate change does destroy his beach house in 20 years, they will have gotten 20 years of use out of it.
