[QUOTE="Dave, post: 569067, member: 498"] Back 35-40 years ago when I was first out of school everyone kept telling me how a person just couldn't make it. That you had to either be born into it or marry it. Unfortunately I listened to them and never really tried. There were several kids I went to school with who didn't listen to those people. They now have farms or ranches. At the same time there was one kid whose family had a huge place back then. About two or three years ago he sold the last of the cows and is out of business. Don't listen to those who say it can't be done because it can be. Also don't listen to those who say it will be easy because it wont be. Work hard. Work two or more jobs on the side getting started. Think outside the box. Rent land or move to areas where you can rent land to get started. Every area has an unfair advantage. Figure out what it is in your area and take advantage of it. [/QUOTE]
