It only takes one smart person and one wealthy person to make a major impact. The pyramids: pulley system. Easy as pie.

Yes. Gifts are given.

I had an ancestor who was an inventor. He patented a washing machine, sold the patent and bought land in a remote new area. He spent his life playing with mechanical things. He and his son in law did well.

So true.

It took leaving a block/tackle pulley on a tree limb and a stone with a cryptic message to launch not only a >2 century treasure hunt (i.e., ‘money pit’), but a potentially more valuable television series on the now-obscenely-expensive snipe hunt.

What an incredibly brilliant way to protect a treasure: Get everyone digging in the wrong place and make it impossible to prove otherwise.

I was intrigued by the series initially until I learned both the details and the fact that they continue to ignore both science & common sense in their ‘hunt’.
