Don't think I'm out of line posting, because Bison posted about this about 4 pages back ("Canadian Farmers)- he's about 800 miles north of the Montana border, east of the Peace River. He raises bison (buffalo), so you know the fences are good! Some of that country is pretty rough, but some other posts on that thread made it sound like the Peace River Valley was kind of a farming mecca. I could have worked my way into ownership of a spread near Prince George, BC many years ago, but it was a little too rough a country for me- no electricity, carry water in buckets from the well, and when I decided to walk out an look at the stock, owner made me carry a 30.06- "Watch for bear, but moose are actually more dangerous." Great, I kind of wanted a place where I didn't have to fear for my kids' lives every waking moment, so I passed.

I do some estate planning, and his options are pretty limited, as in a total of one: sell, and use the money to live comfortably for the rest of his life. He doesn't have any alternatives- can't afford to hire help, kids don't want it, he's getting to the point age-wise that he can't carry it on himself. What other options are there?
