Housing price Crash

[farmboy44]

Poorer farmland around here is already dropping in price but the better stuff is hanging in there but not setting new price records. Can't give an acreage away here either. Farmland is staying up there for now because there is nothing else to do. As the Canuckistanian economy disappears, good jobs are more rare than unicorns and so all millennials are coming back home to farm. Spend some time on indeed.com and you will see why.

Do you honestly just look for opportunities to say the word "canuckistan" in your posts? It somehow works its way in to basically every single post you write on here. Its pretty disrespectful to keep suggesting that our country is so similar to the shit-whole third world countries your tying it to.

I'm not sure how were Uber insulated either.



We have a mortgage utilities need food and gas and everything else a family in the city does plus the capital costs of equipment buildings and land and that $700,000 a year to seed weed and grow a crop.


I could honestly just farm 3 or 4 quarters keep 20 cows and go boring 7 months of the year and make way more money have zero stress and actual time for my family.



Farming big acres only to break even and keep every other retailer and supplier happy while we stress out every penny and paying our bills seems more and more retarded by the day.

I agree with Klause and it would be hilarious to see some of these BTOs who are taking on the worlds bottom line.

FLAT and praying it doesn't go down.

Breaking even sucks but i can bet you the Dealerships and suppliers don't even dream of Breakeven. Some thing is wrong with the system.

Renting a piss pot of land just to break even and play is stupid.

But to each his own.

When the shoe fits. This country is vigorously pursuing the kinds of policies that make the third world what it is. It is basically a one industry country with the energy industry. Farming falls loosely under that banner. Virtually all wealth has a connection with government leading to rampant crony capitalism in Canuckistan. This include SM as well as wind turbines etc. Government is importing voting blocs using immigration and trying to make this country an Islamic country. Everything now is about race and gender. Those are the things that make your country an s-hole.

Ain’t that the truth Sawfly? That seems to be the way it is in every city. Houses just keep getting bigger, more kitchens- but no one cooks at home, food comes from take-out and boxes. The other day about a 60 year-old woman told me she never cooks-her husband buys and prepares all the food. I was floored! At Home Depot, a lady was buying supper for her husband and her-2 absolutely huge subs enough for days. Why do people need two ovens, two dishwashers, two fridges, is there something that I am missing?

Lol in essence over the last 10 years they traded any savings in cash for 2 of ever appliance and the over sized house. They better own their lifestyle cuz it ain't gonna replace their pension that went tits up over the same period. Pretty sure the reasoning for low rates was tapping into the gluttony in everyone. The cure of the last crisis will be causation of the next.

How in gods name does that make us anywhere near the middle east?

As was said to another user on this forum who likes to call this "the worst place in the world to live"

theres a lot of countries (including 'stan ones) that you harrows would trigger a land mine in to this day

sure theres a lot of things going on here that we don't like.

but don't disrespect the men and women whove died to make country what is by referring to us in this manner

thank you

Klaus, Separate the jobs we do for a living from the living costs. That's were I believe we were making the "uber insulated" comparison. I bet you write most of your utilities off, the "farm" buys alot of people's fuel, lower house taxes, can be somewhat self sufficient in food if you so desire. I'm sure there's more...

The direction the country is on is definitely disrespect to those who fought and died for it. I don't see anything changing anytime soon so am a western separatist. People in this country are completely addicted to government handouts and I will admit there are subsidies at this house as there are at yours so yes I do contribute to the problem. I also have $Cdn denominated savings which get pillaged every year by the government manufacturing inflation to keep what is left of the Canuskistanian economy afloat and so contribute more to this country than many do. Have US assets to survive as well

Ha ha!! Lots of non farming people talk like that.

“You’re lucky, you can write it off” .

I don’t understand that statement. I have to have enough money to actually buy and pay for the goods I use. If they are legitimate expenses for farming that is not my fault.
I often suggest folks create a small business so they can use office and tools as a direct expense against their income. Very few people that I know do this.

I do consider these folks lucky because they can kiss my ass and I can’t.

We supply the local economy with a massive cash infusion every year we farm.
Wage earners do not for the most part.
The few perks we do get pale in comparison to the money we farmers pump into the local economy each and every year .
So handouts to farmers ...... they get far more back than what we receive .

Thats the problem with a chip on the shoulder. It suppresses empathy and amplifies tunnel vision.

Sad if housing does cras and not if when it happens lit will be ugly credit will evaporate and that will hurt farming then those wannabe city investors will come crying selling the farm land to keep the city life going.

That’s a positive as you are in control and squeeze them but if your a BTO with no cash your also not buying as bank is saying wow sunny your done also.

It would be a blood bath so they will keep the thing going for a while longer
