A boat is nice if you know how to operate it.

You can buy a very small piece of land (like a cm) here in the UK and call yourself a 'Lord'. Companies arrange it all for about £15.

I should look into this when and if I move... Can foreigners buy land in the UK?

I think they can but what's the actual point in buying a cm in land?

Well, it'd be for land in general... Not just 1 CM of it, haha!

In the UK we have something called freehold and leasehold.
Not many people who by houses here know that!

Anyone who buys a house will know that, because their solicitor will tell them.
Plus it is listed on every house detail in every estate agents window.

I'll be happy any day with a house and a plot of land, the trouble is depending on where you want to live that isn't realistic, our planet is way too crowded.
I want a good boat. Then I can live on the seas, go wherever I want with my house and never have to care about overpopulation myself! Cheesy

They say that the two happiest days for a boat owner are when he buys his boat and when he re-sells it. Cheesy

It'd be cool to have a low-maintenance super yacht, though I doubt there is such a thing.
Lol, it would be a sailing boat! Very low maintenance and cheap transport!

This doesn't look like high maintenance thing. They aren't too expensive as well.

I would want a piece a land far from cities which could reduce the amount of population around you.

In all honesty, at this point in my life, I'd probably take a nice condo in a city that I love.

Bought both my house and the land it sits on so I can pass it on to my descendants.

In the UK we have something called freehold and leasehold.

It's kind of a scam the rich have, if you don't own the freehold (your land), your house passes back to the land owner when the leasehold runs out.

Not many people who by houses here know that!

I'm looking to buy a house later this year and this was something I'd never heard of, although having looked into it, you pay a ground rent of about 50p a year in some cases. I guess the problem comes when the land isn't bought.

I`d probably get land as well.

Making sure and hire some person tell me theres oil in my land.

Then hit up some oil companies, to get a check for using it.

If you travel the world then hotels can be a very nice way to get around.
