"Windfalls" can make people really stupid, and it doesn't matter if it involves a government payment windfall, or unsustainably high commodity prices! I do not suggest that it makes all people stupid. I really struggle with those who got really crazy with the big prices on crops a few years ago, went out and jacked up cash rents to idiotically high levels, resulting in real estate changing hands. All was fine until the commodity prices went down, and the rents cannot be sustained. Prior to 2012, I saw a BTO and his equipment on the landscape just across the road from where I live, pulling a 16 row planter behind a wheeled tractor in the spring, a decent sized 4x4 performing tillage that spring and in the fall, and a big combine harvesting that fall. A year or two later, it was all new equipment including a track tractor and at least a 24 row planter, bigger 4x4, new combine, big grain cart, and a fairly new semi tractor and trailer with his name in big letters on the door. Don't know if the rest of the neighborhood is as impressed as he is. Just got wind of this BTO who filed bankruptcy. Word has it he filed bankruptcy under one legal entity and bought back the assets for pennies on the dollar through another entity.

The one who told me about it shared with me this tactic was used at least once before, accomplishing the exact same thing. He filed bankruptcy under one legal entity, and bought all the assets back under another entity.

Today's Featured Article - Timing Your Magneto Ignition Tractor - by Chris Pratt. If you have done major engine work or restored your tractor, chances are you removed the magneto and spark plug wires and eventually reached the point where you had to put it all back together and make it run. On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
