I would probably stay where you are. Years ago I used to drive a truck about two thousand miles a week and then drive a four hundred mile round trip from where I lived to a ranch my parents had, and worked about five hundred acres during the summer. Never made a profit during the entire sixteen years that I did it. Company I drove for eventually became a J-----s so I quit and bought a 265 acre ranch and did that for ten years. Just made enough to pay the mortgage each year. Wasn't really worth all the hard work. Agriculture is a dead business that hasn't been buried yet. The only downside to staying where you are that I can see, is, working for a Massey dealer, I couldn't do that, John Deere, yes.
