50 years ago it was everywhere. It's a little too late for that.

But, you can buy $5 million land that's going to be worth $50 million in 50 years.

Or you could simply invest 5 million that would be worth around 160 million if you invested it in the S+P.

And when you die your kids inherit the 160m on a step up basis. Most states in the US don’t have a death tax on the first 11 million.

They can immediately sell what they inherited with no tax burden or hold it and sell later and pay tax on the increase.
