Dowry laws kind of sound like you are paying them to marry you.   Stupid. It goes on all the time over there.

I am considering leasing out the state highway that  runs in front of my house.   [possibly making it a toll, or EV1 only boulevard]

Build a moat around your house and fill it in with water.  Presto, you're now the proud owner of your own island.
