Gotta admit - that story tugs at your heart. I see both sides, but man - what a beautiful piece of dirt. C'mon, Powerball!

Which billionaire or multihundo millionaire will buy it? There should be a stipulation they have to kick in a couple mill to NU’s NIL as part of the deal.

Hope it’s a Nebraskan and not a Bill Gates or Ted Turner type deal.

Or a foreign corporation.

My older sister lives in Montana and that’s who’s buying up most of the ranches and land up there. Bullshit.

Largest foreign land owners in the USA.. Canadians, 15+ million acres. With all the old farmers getting out and land prices where they are at im sure thatll increase along with hedge fund investments.

It's like the Dutton Ranch, but in Nebraska... Wonder where the train station is in this scenario?

Pineridge. Reserve, Local, county, State and Federal. Sounds like a nightmare.

Whiteclay, you could probably stack bodies there for years before anyone noticed.

The city of Valentine

What a shithole

They’ve actually done a shit load of economic development work and have completely transformed the city. I wish it were closer to Omaha, but they pull tourists from Denver, Cheyenne and Rapid City.
