If you want to farm as a life style, no sweat. Have a very good off farm job, round up the 100,000 to 250,000 to buy a decent sized piece of ground. IF you are willing to use antiques you can buy the machinery you need for around $20,000 and hire what you don't have the machinery for.

Livestock wise, the goat market is really hot right now, as mentioned before most of it goes into the ethnic market. Hogs will actually be a better ROI and quicker turn on your investment, but when the price goes down it can be a real cash drain.

Like fawteen said, if it was easy everyone would do it.
