I always like these kinds of stories, and then I wonder what the after-story is. A couple hundred thousand in repairs, renovation and remodeling, I&#x27;m guessing the occasional B&amp;B guest doesn&#x27;t provide a huge amount of income. What do people who do this (move out to extreme rural areas and buy enormous and expensive to maintain offbeat homes like schools, churches, power plants and missile silos) do for a living to afford this?<p>I&#x27;d love to go out to random-rural-county and buy 20 acres of land and a school and turn it into a huge home, but then I&#x27;d be hours away from where I need to go to make the money to do that.<p>There&#x27;s always some other parts of the financial story that never seems to come through in these kinds of articles.
