Rail roads he has got that covered.  ...and restaurants (Dairy Queen), and the Beverage Industry (Coke), and Oil & Gas (Suncor Energy), etc., etc., etc.The other side of the coin is he also missed the .com bubble burst in the late 80's.I tend to feel the same way...if you're going to invest, then invest in something you know.  

That's not the same as "providing a benefit", the latter being far more broad.For example:  My IRA owns a Dairy Queen. 

Do NOT do a handshake deal or T&M (time and materials) because a lot of guys turn into dairy farmers and in the end the cost is double what they said it would be and then they just look like the Olsen twin meme with their hands in the air like they didn't know.

My husbands fico is 640, after working in a dairy farm for 14 years he changed his job field to construction work.

When I asked “why” he simply replied; “You didn’t thank me, so I took it back.”From that day forward, I was always the first of my siblings to say, “Dad, thanks for taking us to Dairy Queen, dropping us at the movie theater, taking us to football practice, and thanks for not getting angry when we were teaching our youngest brother how to drown in the bathtub.”  

Hemet is affordable and there are plenty of dairy farms and horse properties. 

He bought the property where now sits a Dairy Queen.

I hope you tell me Meyers dairy is still open.
