Graduated high school at 17, got a job in the city. working straight night, 1;00am till 9:am. After about two weeks , I took on a second job as a painter. No big money for sure, but I did save.By 1981, I had $10,000.00 , Got a chance to rent a 64 acre farm with a 15 cow dairy stable, So I junped on it, I was 20 years old and living my dream of being a dairy farmer. Had to borrow another $10,000.00 from my Dad to get things rolling, and after 5 years he was so pleased that I made it , he forgave the loan. Wife and I married in 1982, and just marked 31 years , and we are still friends. Mrs works off the farm as a Librarian, and comes to the barn with me every morning. We still milk cows, around 50-60, and have one son out of three that is keen. The farm we have our cows on now, we bought in 2004, and our son lives on our heifer farm. There is no right way to get started , everyone is different. You have to take chances and work hard, and perserver, it will come. Make plans, set goals, be realistic. Bruce
