If you are one of those readers who has been Googling the information, regarding the New York City luxury second home, of the beleaguered Dominican Prime Minister, Roosevelt Skerrit, you may have stumbled upon something curious. Just how much did that condominium sell for, when the Prime Minister, who shows only nominal income, as national leader of a developing country, purchased it ?

Here's the mystery: was the condominium, where the PM's wife and children presently reside, but where the PM himself does not visit, purchased for $2.2m, or for $7.7m ? We cannot say, but the real estate websites show both sales prices. We hope that some of our readers can shed some light upon this dilemma. We would, of course, like to know where the purchase money came from.
