It's often painful to watch that TV programme Homestead Rescue, clueless muppets buy land only to turn it into a muddy shithole, covered in animal waste, rickety fencing made out of pallets, everything covered over with rotten ripped tarps, shitty timber shacks with no foundations, no plumbing/running water and no power.

It's easy to be critical from an armchair but it's not hard nowadays to research things and if you want modern conveniences you're still gonna need some big $$$ to get everything set up right.
