You are young, follow your dream. Keep your job in town and do your farming evenings and weekends. ( you wouldn't be able to do much of that if you were married). Do you live on your 40 acres? A building site? Helps to have shelter for you equipment. A good 4020 may be the only large tractor you need to start with.

I would not be afraid to purchase a combine, some models are cheap enough to have two, one with a grain head and the other a corn head. A couple of gravity boxes will be needed for harvest.
