Some people were talking about owning lots of land in case society breaks down, but owning large swathes of land you cannot actively defend is pointless for these reasons. You depend on government to enforce rules of law to keep people off vast amounts of land. And it gets exponentially harder to defend land the more of it you have.

This applies really to any resource though. Even your home could be taken away if the threat of punishment from a higher authority didn’t exist.
