I've been giving it some serious thought, and I think I'm gonna get out of this farming stuff, but not completely. I'd love to farm, but I've come to the conclusion I can't deal with the risks. I'm not a big risk taker. I love baling hay, but I'd rather help others bale and let them worry about the weather, balers not tying, machinery breakdowns, etc. I'm thinking of selling all my equipment, (except my Oliver 1650 and 3pt sickle mower) using that money for part of a down payment for an acreage or at least a house in a very small town. I am being given my late uncle's Oliver 770 and I'm trying to get my late grandpa's Farmall B, plan is to restore both of them and take them to shows, plow days, etc. I don't think i could farm, but the lifestyle and the country is in my blood and I'd like to be as close as I can to my roots. Anybody like to buy some equipment?
