Grandpa was 64 and retired when I was born, he part-time farmed most of his life, owned the General Store the last 30 years he worked. Always said he never made more than $10K per year in his life, yet died a rich man at 97. This farm is 50 acres, and when they bought it, was mostly fruit, berries and vegetables- more than enough for a part-timer plus a full-time hired man and migrant harvesters. Plus the two or three cows, hogs, and chickens, meant more work and more food. The list of people he helped with small loans is long, and he died with a box of store accounts he never collected because "those folks couldn't afford to pay any more than they did".
