If we are talking substantial cash, then after acquiring those items I
previously listed, I would recommend buying more land, ideally land
that is contiguous to your present homestead land. There is no sum of
money any of those on this list might have that cannot be fully spent
on land. Owning more land around you gives greater assurance of
conditions staying as you like them.
