Not for a minute bucket! My Dad's words still ring clear in my ears.....when he got frustrated with how he was being treated he said "they treat you like a fool". I guess I wasn't listening either!

It's definitely a tough way to make a living but I don't know if I would have done any better financially anywhere else either....maybe alot easier and less stress in some other vocations but I made it this far I think I'll survive. I did sink "most" of the money I made back into land and machinery. My Dad did a better job of saving cash for himself(on a "relative to the times" basis than I did....but I don't think I'm done either.

Anyone particular in mind Biglentil?

Perhaps this thinking is the problem, but how many opportunities do you get a shot at a half section, let alone a half that borders your current land base? My twisted line of thinking is someone else will be right there to buy it if you do not, but not at any cost as it must be feasible and fit in to the plan.

One way or the other, you will have 2 seconds to make up your mind and the rest of your life to regret the decision.

One thing. When I retire and become a landlord, then maybe I'll waste time listening to broadcasts like this. Someone else from a distance counting my money,..

One way or the other, you will have 2 seconds. o make up your mind and the rest of your life to regret the decision.

....either way Blackpowder? buyer's remorse or remorse for not buying! I don't think buyer's remorse lasts as long. The other could be a lifetime affliction.

Far more likely to regret not buying it if you get the chance.
Buyers remorse doesn't last nearly as long as not buying it.

If it's adjoining yours and you can swing it buy it or you will always regret it. If you want I'll buy it and rent it to you and you can be my serf. Umm I mean tenant.

farmaholic, buying that half just makes your whole package even more attractive.
It'll be regrets for not buying, as you and your son's may never see it for sale in their life time.
If it's an investor, then why can't you be an investor too.

Was going to mention that the SE and EC may not have gone up due to flooding and too wet conditions over the last couple years.
