    Greg I watched this when it came out and was going to reply that I agree 100% on finding a job you like and everything you said.
    The next day I watched again with my 5 year old grandson and 3 year old granddaughter. They enjoyed it and seen things I had missed. Hopefully your talk on “working “ sticks in their minds. I tell them the same thing all the time.
    Thanks,
    Elton

    What you have figured out is very special Greg, keep doing this as long as you are able, you're inspiring a whole new generation of graziers with your simple and natural ways!

    Leaving the engineered matrix system designed to keep you ‘under control,’ was the best decision ever. Being on the land producing your own food is incredibly beautiful, freeing and invigorating! Stay safe out there Greg and best wishes to Jonathan. 💕

    Thanks for the video! It sure is turning nice here too. I enjoy my plant job but there’s nothing like having animals at home. We just bought a few more chickens(32) and a puppy. My middle child is just like me. Couldn’t ask for anything better than animals. She said I don’t need any more Christmas or birthday gifts I got what I want the most or something like that. She loves her animals. Happy animals make happy people at our house. When I retire from off the farm job, I will be living the best life on my hobby farm. You never know, there could be more land to buy close to us too.

    It was cool to see all the hills around your properties that the cows and bulls roam daily, not just seeing the bigger hills in the distance. Yes, you live in beautiful country. But then I think you would find the beauty where ever you are.

    Greg, You're making a great case for taking the risk and chasing your dream. I had dreams of travel in retirement and I had that job in town, so I deferred my dream to retirement. Now I can't and I probably never will.

    Greg, I can't agree with you more regarding so-called *retirement!* I'm on the cusp of turning 70 this year.
    All my life, especially in junior high school and high school *(1966-1972),* the societal emphasis, which I now recognize to be very Marxist in nature, was that blue-collar laborers were less than in all respects to those individuals in American society who were *SMART ENOUGH (tongue in cheek!)* to get sufficiently good grades to go to a 4-year university, graduate, preferably with an advanced Masters or Doctorate degree under their belts; and enter the workforce to use their minds instead of their hands to earn a salary that our parents couldn't have ever even bothered to dream about.
    *NO teacher, Guidance Counselor, vice-Principal, or Principal in those 6 years of junior high school or high school EVER spoke to me, or ANY of my classmates about the blue-collar trades. It was AUTOMATICALLY assumed that we would leave our parent's blue-collar lives behind once we graduated and NEVER look back. Those who chose to follow in their father's footsteps were politely, and not so politely, considered to be losers, with the condescension often dripping from the mouths of the staff in the schools once they realized that one of us WAS NOT going to go to college. At that point the public school educational system washed its hands of you and in most cases never bothered to speak with you again. It was if you had become a pariah, and shunning was your punishment.*
    Now, fast forward to 2024, and the value of a degree from even the most prestigious 4-year universities such as Harvard, Yale, Johns Hopkins, Stanford, the University of Chicago, and others of similar repute are seriously being called into question as more and more employers realize that the vast majority of those who have graduated from such schools are less than worthless as potential employees.
    *I have the utmost respect for anyone who has worked as hard, and as long as you and Jan have to realize your dream to think that they should just arbitrarily quit working because a boatload of highly educated, ultra-liberal, Marxist elites who sit on their asses all day spouting nonsense in universities across the country think EVERYONE should stop working at 65 years of age! What a load of nonsense. GOD designed our bodies and minds to be used, and sitting idly by all day long in RETIREMENT is not what GOD wants us to do.*

      I'm so sorry, Tim. I've known some people with MS and it really isn't any fun. I'm going to offer some unsolicited advice (for lack of a better term). Have you tried going pure carnivore (nothing but fatty meat, no potatoes, bread, peas, corn, etc) for 3 to 6 months to see if it will help with the MS? I've seen videos where people were able to reverse autoimmune diseases by going carnivore. Since you need to eat, why not try it? Up to you.

    Greg, dear man, you are a treasure. You are the same age as my husband. He and I have been on a carnivore diet for over a year and it has changed our lives. Please consider cutting out the carbs and eating that beautiful beef and lamb you grow. That pouchy gut you have will be gone. I say this because you are too precious to loose to metabolic disease. Inflammation will be gone. Check out Dr Baker, Dr Chaffey or Dr Berry to name a few carnivores. Jordan Peterson is carnivore. I don’t mean to offend. We are the same age group and someone has to stay around to help the world swing back around to sanity. ❤

      @@gregjudyregenerativerancher Greg, I am so glad you weren't offended. It is an interesting process getting off of carbs. They are like inputs that are not necessary to the healthy eco system. Seriously. It is a mind set change and interesting to listen, become the observer of your thoughts, about the carbs the organisms in your body expect, like candida. Are you really hungry after that big steak and it is usually the time when you have toast and jam at 7:30 pm? Your brain is lying, you are not starving, it is addiction. period. All the best of luck to you and Jan.

    Hey Greg, because I'm about to install a perimeter fence of HT wire and fiberglass posts, I'm still curious about your dialog (lost) with regard to the arcing tensioner you showed so much in the video you made where YT snatched your audio.
    What gives with the tensioner arcing? The other two apparently weren't and I know that arcing is not desired--or maybe it's not an issue. You spent a lot of time looking at it. Why?
