Farmers are already millionaires and they get to live on a farm.

Data center buys their farm and they gotta move into a town like all the poors.

Farmers are already millionaires

Is that really what you think

Asset rich, cash poor. It has its advantages over being regular poor with no assets but except for the largest farmers, they aren’t living a life of luxury. At least at the size where they are still considered a family farm and not a corporate farm
I guess that was really my point - farmers aren’t living a millionaire life, they’re just responsible for a million dollars in equipment.
