Grew up on a farm but didn't do much on my own, well only for a few years anyways. Growing up, the best year we had was during the gas shortage. Sotres didn't have gas, but had plenty of kerosene, and almost everything we had at the time could run off of kerosene. I don't recall what Dad made that year, but he always said it was double what he made the next 2 years combined. When he retired from farming, I put all of our fields in sericial hay, with 3 guys helping, and me still in school and mostly working the fields after school and during the summer, I made close to 30 grand a year, for the 4 years I did hay. I was 17 at the time, and this would have been in 86 when I took over. I will add though the only piece of equipment I had to buy was a bailer. Dad gave me the tractors, and a rake that had sat for several years, the wagin and truck to haul it, and use of the old barn to store it, but most went straight to my customer. When he died, I lost most of the businesss I had, and the land I was renting from him. Havent farmed other than a garden and helping ny buddy on his since.
