How this timeshare company keeps its workers — and guests — healthy.

He said he has no plans to abandon the project. Versailles will have 14 bedrooms, 32 bathrooms, 11 kitchens, a movie theater, a roller rink, a bowling alley, a car garage, three levels, two elevators — including one that is gold — and a slew of other amenities.
Versailles made the news last year when Orange County fire crews were called on site for a reported fire. The January response was due to a fire caused by a welder spark hitting foam, which Siegel then told OBJ caused no significant damage. That was due to a new mission the couple has taken on with the Victoria Siegel Foundation, an organization named after their late daughter, Victoria, who died at age 18 in June due to a drug overdose.
The foundation tackles various drug-related issues, including raising awareness about drug abuse and addiction in schools, colleges and universities. While I was out there I went to the opening of Disneyland. It was in the middle of orange groves and cow pastures, but when I went back two years later, a whole city had grown up around it.
It was amazing. That was something I never forgot and it became pretty significant to my story about 30 years later. EW: Were you always drawn towards real estate? DS: Not really. While I was a student at the University of Miami, I thought about going to Alaska and decided to study communication and equipment repair.
I was taking classes and when friends and family heard I could fix just about anything you could plug in, they brought their TVs or radios by and I took it to class to repair. I was doing well until the owner of the school came to me and said I was running a business out of his school. He said I had to be in business or in school, so I quit the repair school and started a little appliance repair business in Coconut Grove in Miami.
The business expanded and I kept moving into larger properties. Then I received a draft notice. I went the same day to apply for the Air Force reserves. Fortunately I was accepted and went through basic training, but the whole time I kept running my business. While other guys were getting care packages with cookies, I got boxes full of bills, receipts and checks to sign.
Then I went back to Miami, got married and President Kennedy called up the reserves to active duty. Fortunately I was stationed at Homestead, but the only way I could get off base was if I was taking classes.
The only night classes were in real estate, so I enrolled. In fact, my wife and I had to drive to Orlando to take the state exam at the Angebuilt Hotel.
