Health ins is huge. We pay as much a month in health ins a month now as it cost me to live for a month when I first started farming and was single. That's huge.
I happened across expense records from ,97 the 3rd yr I was farming, and looked how cheap it was then vs now. $35 a month cell now $180. Might spend $50 a month in pickup fuel, now 300+. Pasture rent was like $75 a pair now $300. Its crazy how much stuff has gone up when look at old records.
You must drive a lot more now. Fuel isn't much higher now than it was in 97. |
