I"m 74, and still farming. My wife keeps telling me I have to retire or slow down, but I"d be happy farming until the day I die. That said, I"ll probably stop milking in the next couple years, but I plan to keep some of the beef cows.

I"m building a new shop this year, so I"ll be spending some time in there and I"ve got my eye on a TO-35 that a neighbor wants to sell.

I"ve put some away over the years, but I can rent my farms out and live comfortably off that. My wife and I don"t get a whole lot from Social Security.

I suppose if you want to do a lot of traveling or buy a second home somewhere, you"ll have more expenses.

If you can drive tractor, you can pick up some work during planting and fall harvest working for some of the bigger operations around here.
