That's right, I said it.  Don't list your Estero, FL home for sale!  Why bother?  The world is ending in 13 days. What, you didn't know? The Mayans knew all about the upcoming cataclysm.  The planet Nibiru (Planet "X") has been hiding on the other side of the sun (The Government(tm) knows all about this, but they're keeping it from us!), but on the 21st of December it will collide with the Earth and the world will end!  Or maybe the magnetic poles will flip, causing catastrophe!  Or the planets and a black hole will be aligned and our iPhones will all break at the same time.  I don't know.  But it's got to be true, because I saw it on The Internet!  Whatever will happen, we need to make sure we're prepared, and that means not bothering to list your Estero, FL home for sale!
