The biggest thing for guys our age is time. Farming and building a farming enterprise takes a lot of it. So much of my dream will materialize when a ripple ignites all that was laid out and set up over decades and decades. Boom, a star is born in its full glory as it flickers in to its main sequence of chain reactions. To get there took a lot of work, frustration, heart ache, successes and losses. Roading all over the top 3rd of an entire state. Buying land that isn’t convenient to the rest of the operation, but it will accomplish hedging against runaway pricing. So when something does open up in a better location, it’s a swap out. Forming an ag REIT, grooming relationships, investors, the largest single transfer of farmland is coming, where will we be when the music stops? I’d say I am ok for the next 20 yrs, but this could be a 30-40 year deal before the dust settles. I won’t live that long. Therefore, I am content, no magic genie please. Let me just enjoy the day to day, relish in now, everything else will come together when the time is right, and I want time to go slower as a 53 year old man.
