Who buys tons of gold? You can fit $1,000,000 of gold in a safety deposit box.....

Thank you. There must be some FAKE STORIES about Buffett and the Hunt brothers. At least Buffett made money according to this version. Mr. Trump story in his book.

There are Russian men who got Billions after the USSR breakup. They commonly acquire $5 million in paper USD. Then they buy some gold. To turn one billion dollars USD, into a hard asset, you need to buy 40 tons of gold @ $1250 oz. (I used a 16 oz. pound, might be only 12)

For more hard assets, these men then buy land.

For some time but certainly after real estate fall of 2009, Russians have been on a New York city buying binge. It is another hard asset. So is American farm and timber land. It does not matter to Billionaires a lot how much they pay here in America, they know that it's not Venezuela where they might get Nationalized and have nothing.
 
Click on map link to see my old hunting land. The map as shown about includes about everything. As recently as 2013 it was for sale for $469,000. for 187 acres or a little as $2600/acre. Note the concrete slabs. The six family buyers, $100,000 each, got the Wisc. tax bill and tore the house down and used their RVs. Impossible to keep bat-proof anyway. Had over 5000 bats removed in 1995 again in 1997. The lake had a crappie every cast in Spring too. My wife 8bass-big.jpg

in recent pic and I caught 43 pounds of crappies in two hours in 1991. She wore out her knees dog sledding so we moved south.


Record kept was ~350 by eight anglers.
Thin stringer line cuts into his hand lifting 75 pounds of fish.

The intent of this thread is to offer hunting land. I do not own any of these lands. I am sorry a brought up the thing about gold.
 
Art I am by no means making fun of Texas hunting. (I have a invite from Mcgunner!) but I am just saying I wonder if you lifetime Texas know how cheap and easy it can be to hunt in some other states. No need to buy property or leases just go hunting.

When I was younger, I hunted SE New Mexico. One could do that, back then, even let Texans do it. It was muley hunting, but good hunting. Rough country, though, and not conducive to gettin' around by an old man with an arthritic hip. But, I had fun out there. If you killed somthing, the work REALLY started. Mulies cab be just hauled out by hand, though with much strain, I was able to drag out a couple. I don't go out there anymore, would probably kill me. :rofl: I know my limitations.

But, hey, I wasn't STUCK in Texas back then and I ain't now, really. I could still load up the truck, hitch up the RV, and head out. We do that all the time for ducks and fish.

I think it's too late to even think about a move to Alaska for me. I'm too old. Besides, the wife wouldn't be too keen on it. Of course, Art is out there miles from no where and he's older than me. He is an inspiration. I'm pretty happy where I am, though. And, I've got pigs coming in now, one really nasty lookin' tusker. Here it is in late July and I'm thinkin' I'll get up in the morning about 4AM and walk back to my box blind with my AR and some handloads. Year 'round hunting on them devils, no seasons, no limits, just KILL! :rofl:
 
I've often thought of booking a hog hunt with a game ranch, but why bother when I can hunt right here? It's the adventure, I suppose, meeting new people and such. I do book goose hunts with my Waco buddies. That's just too affordable and too close by to resist and I love my wing shooting above all else. :D

But, I don't really desire to spend a couple grand a year on a deer lease, just ain't gonna happen. I've got deer hunting enough here and pig hunting when they decide to move through here. Good enough.

Think I'll go set my hog trap, now. :D
 
It's much easier to just pay to hunt or fish. You can also hunt public land in the west if you are willing to hunt with the unwashed masses. I've always hunted on public land (I'm unwashed) but that is becoming more difficult as the years pass. I've also fished in Mexico. 150 lbs of Dorado by noon and I didn't buy a boat or real estate to do it. Cost me a plane ticket, $75 a night for a nice hotel and a $120 a day for a boat and guide. Had a very nice vacation to boot. My wife loved it. She even fished with me.

Buying land to hunt or fish never made much sense to me. Mostly because I don't like real estate as an investment. I would rather lose my money in the stock/bond market. At least I know at closing how much I lost, I don't have to wait years to find out.:D

My buddy has gotten wealthy on real estate, but it wasn't over night and he works his butt off, a workahaulic. He says he envies me for my retirement. He doesn't buy hunting land, though, though he has 4 farms of about 100 acres a piece now. I'll be headed up there for the dove opener. He buys houses, renovates, sells owner finance and waits for 'em to get several months behind, evicts them, resells. He has the personality for that. It definitely takes a personality for it. In later years, he's mostly rented stuff, though, and he's bought in to some duplexes and new apartments. The guy is sort of a baby Donald Trump. :)
 
Huh. I smell a hidden meaning to that. Course your name may be a clue:D
Possibly a small hidden meaning.
I can also drive wherever I want, leave my stands up all year.
I can get landowner tags for deer and turkey. There is no bag or possession limit when I fish my ponds.
My ground my rules.
 
That is one beautiful view, Art! Hunted on some private property south of Black Gap and bordering Big Bend in 1965. Unfortunately getting too old to navigate that rugged country today!

Art lives in a beautiful, if rugged, part of Texas, little populated, and lots of whitetail, mulie, javelina, scaled quail, doves, this and that. :D It's beautiful out there, but tough to move to. For one, if you have to drill for water, you might need a rig suitable for oil drillers. :rofl: Too, electric service is spotty out there, lots of places are off the grid. And, then there's the thing about communications, cell service is impossible to find. You could have a web satellite link with one of those web phones, I guess. Art has stated once they get a guberment subsidy for a sat phone...sort of a hermit's version of an Obama phone I guess. :rofl:

I have considered the area and have really thought about the idea of the western hill country. I'm convinced the Lord didn't want me in the hill country, won't go into that, but another place out there with gobs of game and even exotics is the area around Carta Valley, NE of Del Rio, in the very western most hill country where it meets the trans Pecos Chihuahuan desert. It's a little settled area, another place hard to get water or electricity. But, they have actual MOUNTAINS there, at least they meet the definition of over 1000 ft elevation relief. They're no Chisos, the mountains in the big bend, but they're not flat land. :D The area is rather dry and desert vegetation is the norm.

The problem I had with moving out there beyond finding something with water and electricity that was in my budget, was I'd be too danged far from my waterfowl hunting!:rofl: Here, I can still hunt the WMA I've been hunting since the 80s along with other areas and I have excellent goose hunting. Also, while you can fish in the rivers out there, the fishing is limited and I like to fish. I'm only an hour and a half from my old Matagorda Bay stomping grounds here.

So, while that area out there has its charm and bonuses for the deer hunter, I'd miss my waterfowl too much and I'd miss the bay fishing. :D I settled for less land to get what was important to me. YMMV. It's always an individual's choice. Art is in heaven out there, though, has some amazing vistas and deer hunting.
 
Hunting land has been something I've fortunately never had issue with. I'm from South Dakota, and my family owns a working cattle ranch of about 10k acres between leased and deeded land. Whitetails, mulies, a few pronghorn....turkeys, sharptails pheasants, doves, and a few ducks and geese....coyotes, foxes, bobcats, an occasional mountain lion.....cottontails and jackrabbits, prairie dogs galore. Toss in a handful of stock dams where a 5lb bass isn't all that uncommon, and you'll see why, even though I didn't choose the ranching life myself, I've never left SD to live....and currently live ony an hour from my little version of paradise
