I would like to get her a new flat screen for the living room but she may catch on to that one. I guess I will get her a jacket or something that she will hate but say she loves. Maybe one day we will be at a point where we don't exchange gifts and just buy for our kids. I am not a scrooge I...

My wife and I agreed not to buy gifts for one another but I know she will get me something so I better do the same. We don't have kids yet so just buying for her. I have no idea what she will get me so I don't know how much I should spend on a gift. Geez why does everything have to be difficult...

I sold a tiger striped steer last Wednesday. pretty joker, 600lbs. Never seen a yearling put on weight like he did and never had one that big at that age. He brought $1.15

governments believe they need population growth to be successful politically. Because population growth in recent years has underpinned economic growth, which is in turn a measure of political success. Some states will be overrun with Hispanics by 2050 that will make up 30% of the...

I will have to find the news link and exactly what he said but he pretty much said the cop was racist and this happened because the guy was black.

When you have a GOVERNOR of a state saying that a white cop killed a black man just because he was black and the cop is a racist that is the beginning signs of societal collapse.

The suspect was heard yelling out how he was upset because of white police officers killing black men. Where is the outrage from the black community about black men killing black men?

I don't know why they call this stuff hamburger helper. It does just fine by itself. I like it better than tuna helper myself, don't you, Clark? I think you're all bleeped in the head! We're ten hours from the bleepin fun park and you want to bail out. Well I'll tell you something, this is no...

I have tried the blocks, shots, etc. The blocks I never knew which ones was getting how much- the shots I have to pin them up- the best and easiest to use, and for seeing the best results for my small herd I have found is the Safeguard paste. I dump feed in the trough and as they are in a...

I appreciate the advice. Sounds like gona be a long road ahead but it motivates me to know that it can be done and has been done.

you said it correct, it is all over the place. Just trying to get a picture in my head of which direction I need to go and what I need to work on to get where I want to be. I guess right now I will just try to save as much as I can.

I would purchase pasture land and put cows on it and grow my herd and if the right offer came along sell it and buy a bigger tract and keep reinvesting that way.

I am contributing to a 401 at work and getting matched but I was wondering about savings on top of that. From your experience, if only 1 option is possible, As far as retirement goes or years on down the road, would it be better for a younger person to fund something like a Roth or save...

yes I can see where that would be satisfying to have a nice looking herd and constantly improving it and seeing good quality animals that you raised and people coming to you to buy quality cows.

yes sir I would like to have what a lot of you folks have one day, big spread pastures and cattle. I like seeing it, the whole process. I wish could do it for a living. It is interesting to hear the way people get started and build it up from nothing. I guess it can be done.
