My wife and I bought one for our cat as a gag. We hope they plant a tree. Even if they don't, it's brought me enough amusement to be worth it.

- imwillofficial 4y agoYou’d better be treating Lord Whiskers with the proper respect! Only fancy feast for the young highness.
- cptcobalt 4y agoExactly this. It was cheap enough for my husband and I do be lords as a great gag gift, and the framed certificate is on a bookshelf. The night of fun of referring to each other as Lord Alexander & etc. more than paid for the purchase. And this is kinda the point, people don't really care if it's real or not. Nobody is about to go to put "Lord Alexander" on their drivers license or airline boarding passes—and if they do, good for them. Anecdotally, I have a friend who is a hereditary heir to a baronet title, and that itself sounds way cooler.
- adriand 4y agoCan you do anything with "your" land? Like plant something or erect something on it (I know you're not going to, but if you wanted to, could you)? What about access, is it possible to go see "your" plot? And do they give you GPS coordinates so you can check it out on Google Maps?
- chrsig 4y agoof course not -- silly expectation to be able to. I'd have to dig up the packet they sent for any exact details, it had a bunch of fine print about stuff like access and what not.
- cptcobalt 4y agonah, there's a bunch of terms, and the idea is that this will protect forests. but you can visit it! https://establishedtitles.com/pages/faqs-ii https://establishedtitles.com/pages/faqs-ii
