[QUOTE="turkeyrun, post: 3829737, member: 27991"] I had a cousin owned a family dairy between Ada and Roft. Worked hard before sun up to after dark, 365 days year. Milked 180 cows, twice a day, then planted, baled and put up hay. Put 2 sons through college, oldest a CPA, youngest IT. Day after the youngest graduated, the cows were sold and land listed. The 2 sons got good jobs, making good money, bought land and a few beef cows. They were told repeatedly, they would never that dairy, they would get educations and work smarter, not harder. Oldest son sat behind a desk, struggled with his weight, high stress, had a heart attack and passed at 48, in '05. His Dad passed in '06 at 84, smoked like a chimney. His Mom in '07 Youngest in '08 at 50 year old. Maybe that hard work wasn't so bad. [/QUOTE]
