[QUOTE="herofan, post: 1025430, member: 17843"] I'm sure this question has been asked before in one form or another, but here is another approach. I know a lot of school teachers and people in various educational jobs. Although they have made their living in education, a lot of them stun me by saying they would not recommend anyone going into education. I've heard several people say they certainly wouldn't want their children going into education. The idea is that it's too much for too little pay, to many demands by the government, recently become dangerous, and the list goes on. As an occupation, it's just not what it's cracked up to be and it will drive one insane, and not the fun career that it once was. That got me to wondering. For those of you who have been into cattle for years, what would be your first impression be upon hearing someone wanted to get into the cattle business, either for a living or hobby. Would you smile and recommend it? Good idea, or they don't know what they're getting into? Is the work load vs profit worth it? Do you ever say, "if i had it to do over, I would have had another career." If one is planning on hobby farming, would they be better off just spending that time on the couch? [/QUOTE]
