>>I am pretty sure you can buy a potato farm in Canada for the price of "Margin of Safety". :)<<

I wonder what he does with the Potato farm if we get's hit with heavy redemptions. I don't think that potato farms trade every day.

During the last credit crunch in 2008, some hedge funds owned cattle and goats in Kazaksthan. they probably got the idea to invest there, after watching "Borat". When they got hit by redemptions they also had liquidity problems because the market for cattle in Kazaksthan was not all that developed.
