[QUOTE="watson, post: 180624, member: 533"] I know this is going to start a shit storm but How easily the past is forgotten. I have both cattle and buffalo and made money left and right the last 3-4 years, but just because I had some extra $ I didn't waste it on $3400 pairs just because that's what they were asking. I paid off bills and put some away, if your bills were to high to pay off then you didn't run a very good program. 15 years ago I saw my $3k buffalo calves drop to under $300 but no one was yelling the sky was falling and no gov't help was offered. I tightened the belt, took a job and pulled through and will do the same thing again. I cannot say the same for SOME farmers, I saw more new houses, machine sheds, shops, lake homes, pickups, side x sides, ice castles and other toys bought during 2010-2014 than ever, and guys paying $250+ cash rent and $8000+ an acre for land when maybe it should have gone to pay down notes and put some away.
