@maol 25 years ago I saw one for sale in the Scottish borders for £250K. An absolute steal—if you could afford the £25K/year for heating and the extra £100K+ to repair the leaky roof. Never mind the £50K to install double glazing and insulation and the £200K or so in renovation it urgently needed. Etc.
loved how they got the second castle in the Czech republic for a mere 4m EUR, and didn’t at any point question why a whole fucking castle was on sale for just 4m EUR
They bought a second one? This is too much. I suppose Sam Bankman-Fried already proved EAies were terrible at picking investments when he decided to pursue purchasing Nauru (arguably the Most Unfortunate Island In The World) as a bolt-hole in case of apocalypse.
a castle is not an “investment”, it’s a money pit.
