[QUOTE="Brandonm2, post: 325709, member: 2095"] I am kind of with Badlands on this. "IF money is NO OBJECT", that means I am retiring into the life of the "landed gentry" (rather than us regular working stiffs) and Juan and Pedro are actually going to do all the work for me while I ride around on a golf cart giving orders (I would probably weigh 540 lbs after two years of that). Since I am loaded I don't need to succeed in the cow biz, my goal is really just to entertain myself.....then why would I even CARE what bloodlines I am buying??? In that EXTREME scenario all I would be buying would be about 200 registered heifers that I like off somebodys with a solid grass program and I would take my time about it, AI them to mostly Feltons bred bulls and then after that initial start I would breed towards "ideal" (as defined by me, with input from the cattlemen I respect, the customers I collect over the years, the feedlots, and the packers). I am not really motivated to win ribbons in Denver, (if I am already rich) selling $100,000 donors MIGHT not be such a thrill. Pleasing myself and MAYBE trying to develop a real lasting reputation as a breeder(not just another rich guy who buys and sells expensive cows) would be the only goals longterm. [/QUOTE]
