I don't know what to tell you larry. No, you are not too old to start a new venture but I milked cows in the 70s when milk was $2 higher than it is now and imputs have gone up 10 times. I came out here in 1989 with $8000 and a 4 year old car. Now I am set up on my own place running about 150 mother cows. I sell the calves at weaning and never look back. Sure, when the snow is blowing and it is below zero I long for that nice warm barn, but then the sun comes out and I soon forget all that. I love this life but The calves milk the cows, the wind pumps the water and the cows harvest their own hay and spread their own manure.
