Yes, Gates has been big on farmland for some years, and was reportedly the top owner by acreage, but Bezos is also buying huge amounts, so he may now be the top owner.

Fwiw, I had some LAND and FPI last year during the big runup and got some nice gains. Then bailed a little early, so missed the peak, but luckily also missed the big drop in LAND.

Not much, but most of the stock allocation is going into the S+P 500 to keep things simple. There is also a small group of individual stocks and sector ETFs to keep things interesting (link below), but with $1000 limits. Only one micro/small cap (WINA) -
