[QUOTE="Lucky, post: 1607381, member: 32659"] It’s just a story. This is America and anything is possible if you want it bad enough. I don’t believe any of the “poor kids these days” stories. I saw an interview with Marcus Luttrell awhile back and he said something to this effect. “Immigrants think money grows on trees in America, well it does but you have to work really hard to pick it”. He was talking about illegals coming across the border at his ranch in Texas but the saying is true for anyone. I feel very fortunate to have what I do, but nobody gave it to me through hand outs. Yesterday was a 15 hr day and today will be another. I spent my vacation last week working as hard as I do at the paying job. I’ve spent as much cash on the cattle in the last month as most people will make in a year, now I’ve got 7-8 months to make it back with the same cattle, it’s how you get ahead in life. [/QUOTE]
