[QUOTE="SF, post: 103213, member: 1171"] plb; Arguing with some of these folks about making money in the cattle business is a futile effort. I'm sure that many of them don't make much money in the business. I'm sure that many of them lose money in the cattle business. The cattle business is a business, like any other. Most people who go into any business do not make it. Most will go broke. Some will struggle for a few years, then give it up. There are many breeders out there that make a great deal of money. I know of breeders who average over $1,500 per head profit, but arguing that with many on this board is a waste of time. Just let them go on thinking the way they are. I've never understood the cattleman or farmer who goes around claiming he doesn't make any money, but lives in a $300k plus house, drives a new $40k pickup (bought new every couple of years), etc.... What is it about cattlemen and farmers that they are ashamed of success? Oh well, to all those that do it for love, lifestyle, etc..., and not for money. You may want to revisit your operation. It is possible to make money at it too. [/QUOTE]
