> "Bill Gates owns more private farmland in the US than anyone else. His 242,000 acres of farmland stretch across 18 states from Washington to Florida."
So he has 1 x 1 km (0.6 x 0.6 miles) land in 18 different states. I mean that is nothing. It only sounds big because they are writing it as 242,000 which sounds really huge.
This is pretty close to a non-story in my book
