Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category Entrepreneurs) for Wednesday, June 28, 2017:

(correct response beneath the contestants)

The reason why Walt Disney used pseudonyms (like M. T. Lott — a pun on “empty lot”) and shell companies (like Tomahawk Properties) to buy the required land he needed for his Disney World resort was because he thought that if landowners knew that Disney was interested in the land, they would hold out for a much higher price. Some parties, looking back, still view the move as controversial.
