[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1795709, member: 40587"] Yep. I have been talking with [USER=42731]@50/50Farms[/USER] for a while now. He is young, but wise beyond his years. Has a lot of experience with both cattle and horses. Best of all, he is just "eat up" with common sense. He has a young family, doesn't have a family cattle operation to inherit, just some un-improved land to fence in. It is hard to start from scratch in today's economy. Scott and I are on the home stretch, getting closer and closer to the finish line. Yes, we make money doing this, and here lately things have fallen in place and we have made GOBS. No, we don't know every thing about it, but we have learned a LOT over the years of doing this. Mostly from mistakes that [I]costed[/I] us money. If we can help someone else avoid some of the mistakes we have made, and thus help them to not lose money from those mistakes, then we will have hit a home run at our last at bat. I learned a lot in my youth, and I wasn't as sharp as 50/50. Most of it from the "pinhookers" as y'all call them. People took me under their wing, and the older I get and think back, the more I realize they helped me make money and they took less, when they very easily could have made a lot more by taking advantage of my inexperience. So, I kinda want to pay it forward. [/QUOTE]
