People will always need to eat so an investment in farmland is a smart guaranteed investment. Warren Buffet when asked on if he thought gold was a good investment said he’d rather buy farmland because it will always have value and year over year will provide profit without having to sell the initial investment. So no. Rich guy buying up farmland does not immediately raise alarms. Even if he is creepy. Most of the top earners are creepy whether it’s Gates, Bezos, Musk, or Zuckerberg.
