Save your money, Taco, and buy that Canadian Island. It might only be a rock, but it won't erode away like your sand hill. What you describe is not technically an Island, but a "mountain" with a moat. Islands, though, are not just in the ocean. Lakes have islands, as do rivers, which might be up for sale. If these were the case, you might do better than the Canadian rocks. As for what I am going to be doing in ten years: hopefully retired as I am now 59 and will be 69 then. I hope to have published quite a few books in those years to augment my meager retirement income.
