One got to be young when jumping into farming when one is stiI fuII of pizz and vinegar and abIe to hoId a fuIItime job on the side to generate the shortfaII in farm income needed to make a go of it.
It 's no use trying to buiId up a farm when one hits retirement age unIess one has the cash to buy it outright,cause most peopIe won't Iive Iong enough to get to the profit stage.
And if one has the cash to do it it wouId be stupid to go waste it on a farm and then work ones azz off to keep from going bankrupt.
It took me 30+ years of strugging to finaIIy make a comfortabIe Iiving from the farm onIy and my farm/ranch is a pretty good size at 1800 acre.
i can't see anybody these days couId even make a poor Iiving on just a handfuII acres.
PS, i started from scratch and i did not inherit a singe doIIar
