I bought a horse because I was dating a farrier (horse manicurist) . We got married, bought a house, got chickens, then I stumbled into software development accidentally. I've been stumbling forwards in both software and farming ever since. Edit I think anyone can pull it off with enough capital, patience, some help, and determination. Costs can be low. I have over $100 acres, that was about $2000/acre and that includes the house that was on the land. It's about $250 for every 1000 feet of electric fencing I run. A beef cow costs $500 my dairy cows are significantly more ($2000-4000) but they produce $8/gallon and give 6-8 gallons a day, so they pay themselves off quickly. Hardest part is learning because you are gonna fail and failure involves lives. One of my cows gave birth during this cold snap over Christmas. Her teats are frostbitten and will probably all fall off, and all because I am too inexperienced and got her due date wrong by a month.
