We had a guy here back in the 70's who was old school and considered a BTO. He was a jerk and most people didn't care for him at all. He died early right around 80/81 of cancer. His widow died 2 years ago now to give you an idea of how old he was. At the same time another guy was a BTO of the era for our area and although he was a task master he paid fair and on time. Got on well with others and wasn't above helping people out. Yet people still didn't like him much because he had what they wanted. And he got it all through hard work and being frugal. But the smaller guys were green with envy. Yet let one of them get sick and he was the first one there to see if they needed anything. He was cropping about 750 acres, running 100 or so head of beef and milking 40 cows. I knew him well. He was my BIL's dad. He died of cancer about the same time the other guy did. To big for the day farmers, one nice guy the other one not so much.
