I think it's likely that 'adventured' understands the difference, and chose Turner as the example because he owns 2,000,000 acres (~100000 hectares) of mostly unimproved ranch land: http://www.tedturner.com/turner-ranches/
This makes him the second largest landowner in North America, after John Malone.
