People don't invest in bacon stocks and shares because they like bacon, but because they believe the price of bacon will rise.

If you are talking about buying a holiday home/second use/retirement home overseas, I couldn't agree more, people have to get a feel for the place, which is often hard from photos or a weekend trip.

But for investment purposes it's a whole different ball game with totally different reasons for the purchase.
