[QUOTE="tmlonghorns, post: 822080, member: 14527"] You have just summarized what this lifestyle is all about and it aint for everybody. I too work a 8-5 job...despite tha fact that my employer wants to turn it into a 6AM to 8PM job. But, when I get home, taking care of the livestock and all of the other stuff that goes with having the animals, well, that is my vacation! Sad and sickening to some, for me, it is what I live for. It is my relaxation! You will know pretty quickly if this lifestyle is for you or not and there is no in between. The good news with cattle though is that they are very liquid in that you probably will have a choice of several sale barns within a hour or so that you can take the cattle to if it gets to be to much for you. Try spending some time with a local guy who has cattle to make sure you are cut out for it and don't be ashamed if you decide not to jump in, like I said, this aint for everybody but for those that are in it........well most of them wouldnt give it up for anything, including me. NOTE: It aint always easy and things never go as planned. [/QUOTE]
