This has been a personal fantasy of mine. Every time I read a story about someone dropping software and buying a farm, I'm overcome with envy.

- bityard 2y agoI'm not a farmer but I'm from the midwest and I know a little about farming... very few are farmers by choice. Many have second jobs, just to pay the bills. There are niche and upscale farms that grow specific things like apples and wine grapes that can do quite well, but these are well established family-run businesses that would cost millions of dollars to buy, when they come up for sale at all.
