Had some relatives that took a wrong turn, can appreciate your story and your message. They got things made right again, and move forward. I
hear you on deals like that.

Stamp, Boersen, McM, Illinois Family Farms, they all seem to have the disease of needing to expand for their own ego.

When you get to running 30-90,000 acres and your business can't make it in some of the better years of farming......meanwhile a lot of farm
families are displaced by your actions....

It's just hard to feel sorry for them. And to not have some bitterness their way.

The McM fella had a story not long ago, how the two brothers went from rags to riches back to rags, and how sad. The one brother had to go to
the family multi million dollar lake home and resort in his 2017 deluxe pickup to get away from it all... those assets so far have been kept out of
the bankrupsty, meanwhile several businesses on main street are shorted millions of dollars and again, other farm families were locked out of
farming in the neighborhood.

One of the Illinois Family Farmer guy's was on a different Ag forum like this, seemed like an ok guy. But - their goal was to get over 50,000
acres and they just couldn't operate in a responsible manner. Hurt a lot of people along the way.

All human beings just like me.

But they hurt so many along the way.

I do kinda want to throw fake rocks at them. Not real ones, but gotta do something for the frustration.

You have a good message.

Paul
