While out looking at the drought wheat this year in the field and seeing what this years income will be from it, I got to thinking. How do many of you choose the best way to figure time you spend working versus time you save by spending it on bigger equipment? in the 30s to 70s my family always figured they would give up all the time to the farm to prevent debt of new and bigger equipment. Now that seems to be the opposite that many want to have all free time and are willing to have debt as long as they have that free time. You hear were some say they would not farm if they didn't have a cab and ac and GPS and so on and yet I personally would rather have older simpler and smaller equipment with less or no debt,(after this year no debt would be great). So just interested in how you calculate time versus debt. Thanks
