Wheat basis...

[agchat]

.......smart enough to realize primary ag production is too risky for the rewards. Probably the kind of businessman who sees the value of owning farmland....owns about twelve quarters but rents them out. Took other risks that paid, chooses to soar with eagles instead of walk with turkeys----meaning surrounding himself with successful like minded people who open doors for each other. Then there is the "luck" of wealth....the kind that comes without having to really do anything to acquire it. And the kind of guy who isn't overly flamboyant, is down to earth and salt of the earth. And probably a damn good money manager. I think I may know someone like that too....

Nope, wrong guy

...damn, must be a case of mistaken identity. Not too many people I described have all those virtues!
