What’s the best deal in the history of real estate deals? Some would argue that it’s the purchase of Manhattan by the Dutch in 1626. They purportedly bought the island for just 60 guilders from Native Americans—the equivalent of less than $1,000 in today’s money. That’s certainly not bad, but the best deal ever?
