well with all due respect sir, i am a rancher, and my specialty is raising bison. It cost me a lot to provide my clients[customers] with clean healthy meat. Right now my overhead is at least 95%.I spend a lifetime on education,during wich time i was working off the farm to make a living and still do,as does the wife,and piled up debt as well,as my parents where to poor to even pay attention.I have sold animals or hay for whom i never got paid, But NEVER had a dentist that pulled a tooth for free or after hours or in weekends.And during office hours they charged more for pulling a tooth than i could make in 2 days. I am also on call 24/7 365. I also would like to restore old tractors and such,but neither have the money or the time to persue this.I do ALL of the work myself.
