[QUOTE="1982vett, post: 1028757, member: 7795"] Man...that's a lot of remembering to do....other than being born into it, I got my Dad to buy a bottle calf. I was about 8 and I think he had to pay about $25 for it. Got over $110 for her first calf.....fast forward 23 years, I took over an aging Uncles place (57 acres), bought 14 of his cows and bull to add to 5 or so Dad let me run on his place (supposedly in exchange for labor but I think he may have gotten the raw end of the deal on that).... 6 years later did the same for another Uncle's 54 acres....then took the reigns for Dad when he passed away 10 years ago. I was about a month and 27 cows away from selling out in the fall of 2011. Back up to almost half a herd. [/QUOTE]
