1. I am not wealthy. I am not a farmer; I am a farm-groupie.

does this entail hanging around farmers and trying to get their attentions?

Sustaining and growing

the productivity and income flows from an ag or forest based "family
fortune" is not a walk in the park. Without some love for the land,
respect for the natural processes and people who make it happen, and a
willingness to work, a family cannot hold onto these kinds of assets

over the generations.

I think you're somewhat over-dramatizing here, at least in my experience.
No argument with the rest of your premise, however.

No. But it means things like wasting time reading thru a few hundred
used tractor ads. Thinking you need to know how to change the blades
on a swather. Feeding if someone is coming back late. Its about having
a laugh at yourself and still doing stuff you want to do during the
only life each of us are given. Its Geezer Power.

Which part of that land loving- understanding- work stuff, that I
stated is in YHO most over dramatized? What's your opinion on the same
subject?
