I'll admit it - I was fascinated by #BrentUnderwoods innocent and adventurous story about buying the abandoned mining town of #CerroGordo and living there alone for years. Clearly I was a bit naïve - I mean - how the hell do you stumble across the kind of bread required to buy an entire town, abandoned or not?

And it's not just Brent selling the story of somehow suddenly finding themselves in a romantic #offgrid setting, without really talking about the financial part of it - the interweb tubes seem to be overflowing with them. It's just romantic #pioneering and endless sunsets.

Luckily, @MaggieMaeFish, whom the mightly YouTubes just introduced me to, is doing a damned fine job of #debunking them. It's good stuff: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIcnCaVsYFI
