A friend of mine owns a 600 acre ranch near Orlando FL that he bought when the orange groves froze out in the early 1980’s. He keeps about 100 cattle free range just to get the savings on real estate taxes for farms. He couldn’t afford it otherwise.

Like many farmers, land rich, cash poor.

Same issue with a friend, she left the Orlando area because of the suburban sprawl, she likes to be out of the city mess.

Great idea! Selleck should move his ranch to Flo-Ridah.

I don’t think that’s Selleck’s case though, he must have some money somewhere, unless he spends more than he makes which is hard for me to imagine, but many stars go over their heads, and especially athletes.

Yes but...... he can lease 50 or a hundred acres and generate some income. Selleck probably cannot
