    Like I said, I don't take it too seriously. It was a novelty birthday gift from my wife.
    I would LOVE to see the photos!

    i do not care about fake photos, nifty looking "deeds"--fine, those are literally worth the paper they are printed on, as are the "rights" one "acquires." i want to know whether any of the sellers actually use the money to maintain or improve the estates from which they derive, as some have alluded to here. i do not mind supporting what in effect would be conservation--for example, i am in ducks unlimited, even though i shoot skeet, not ducks. i am in the rails to trails conservancy to support biking trails nationwide, though i almost exclusively ride locally.

    http://www.myglengarry.com/about_us.htm Appreciate this is a follow on link from the post by SeumasA above, but this page just about sums it up for you. Most of these title deed enterprises are in a similar vein and for similar conservation reasons (as I understand it). Managing estates is apparently an expensive business and I can well imagine it would be.
