[QUOTE="stocky, post: 827954, member: 1150"] Don't lose that regular job, especially if it has health insurance. You can work in some cow-calf pairs if that is your goal a few at a time, as you get money. The cow market is at an all time high, now is not the time to buy in. After this thing crashes you can buy them a whole lot cheaper, but remember, you won't make much selling cheap cattle, either. However, you won't have 1500 dollars invested in each cow when they are worth 500. So, any way you look at it, keep that day job and don't lose that money that is actually coming in and not just hoped to be coming in. Health insurance is a huge consideration in the matter, also. Best of luck in your decision. There used to be a funny email that was circulated that started out by saying "When I took early retirement, my wife had to get a second job to make ends meet." You don't want your wife to have to get a second job. You will end up with the housework along with the cattle work. [/QUOTE]
