The people who went to colonial Jamestown just wanted to get rich quickly and go home. So they probably didn't plan on staying for long.

What is important to remember about the Jamestown colony?

The lesson of Jamestown is to go prepared . The men of Jamestown went for the wrong reason, built a fort in the wrong location, and didn't plan very well. This cost them their lives because within 6 months 34 of the 104 were still alive. At some point there will be a colony on the moon and I would hope that the people going would learn the lessons from 200 years ago in Jamestown.
