What are you going to leave as your legacy when you leave this world? Some people want their legacy to be their children and the values they instill in them. Values are wonderful, but most people want to leave a legacy that is tangible and permanent. Maybe a piece of jewelry or art? However, as wonderful and valuable as jewelry or art may be to your loved ones eventually they won't last.
The only thing that lasts is land. That's it. Not even styrofoam has a longer shelf life… Seriously, think about it. What else will outlive all of us and last generation after generation? Only land. They have not only a valuable asset that is appreciating in value, but they have a getaway. They could have a recreational oasis. Perhaps a home or God-forbid everything goes to hell in a hand basket in this country a lifesaving bunker. Only your imagination and your loved ones imaginations are limited by the uses of the property.
To me, is there is no finer legacy than a piece of the earth to leave your family or loved ones when we leave this earth.
