He decided to change the direction of his book and wrote about a place where people could live together in peace and happiness. To test this theory, he decided to build a village called Ancient Lore that would serve as a 5-star boutique resort and event center. The uniqueness of the village has garnered substantial press and early financial success, with over 200 inquiries for events before its official opening in January 2021. Boyd's goal is to build seven more villages over the next five years, with a projected combined income of $76 million.
