Since this is a thread about investing, maybe for you the answer would be spend the $35k on starting up a freeze dried food business? It sounds like you’re know

  That is a good idea and valid point. I have weighed the costs and benefits of having my own freeze dryers and potentially selling it locally. For me personally it just does not work out as I am retired and wish to enjoy my retirement. There are many others that do this on a much larger scale than I could. I would also first have to build my new home and have enough room / power for all the freeze dryers. They are noisy and have to run anywhere from 1 to 2 days depending on what I am cooking and drying. They have to be protected from critters here that would destroy them. I would also be competing with the LDS church. Some of the locals know to turn to them if they need freeze dried foods. At the moment and for me personally it just makes sense to let others do the work. There are companies that at the moment and for some time now have been freeze drying massive amounts of food for my government so I just piggy-back off their work when they have enough reserves. Freeze Dry Wholesalers. Their food is very fresh and high quality. When they are out I get the lower echelon of freeze dried foods on Amazon.
