Subject: Entertaining the Idea of Higher Education



SD
Anybody else thinking about furthering their education? Earning a bachelors, masters or doctoral degree and using it to provide a better life for their family? This farming deal (losing money every year or breakeven at best) is tiresome.

Running numbers every year shows a decent profit with above average yields, but if we have a crop failure its a no go. MPCI coverage is a joke. Taxes/bank numbers show how challenging it can be to overcome asset depreciation. Like my FIL says, the 80's are going to be nothing compared to whats going to happen this time around.

Enough ramblings. Going back to my initial thought of furthering ones education to provide a better life for the family...anybody do this and regret it or anybody currently doing this? If so, how do you manage to get all the farm work done and still find the needed time to study?
