"I’m not certain, but if I had to guess I’d say two words. Deep pockets.

Thrive for example, had great ambition but not deep pockets. And Irving on the other hand has deep pockets but no ambition to be a developer despite having massive land holdings. Ashford has both ambition and deep pockets, however they seem to be saving their money for a really big splash in downtown Moncton.
