Telemark … what did they think happened?

Age 65 you will see health insurance cost go down, as you qualify for a Medicare supplement. There are supplements that range from $0-400 ? Possibly more. My dad was on a military service supplement for $0 and it was a pretty good plan . I’m 57 & my wife and I pay $1680 month ….That’s a $10k...

When you have water on your farm, wildlife is right there. Multiple sources, that’s even better ! There’s a wildlife refuge a few miles away, I’m hoping the ducks and geese flock in here eventually. This is definitely in the flyway ! I can picture a couple spots where the ducks and geese will...

Two home runs .. Valero Energy & UAN ! They have kept my portfolio steady ! Not recommending a buy now though.

Blackstone (BX) at $110. It was up close to $190 not long ago. It pays a 4.7% dividend. A bit of risk as they have been hit by this credit scare. I’ve bought it in the past on the dips. I know a few guys that have made a killing on it !

Interesting day !! I’m thinking about adding soon !

Apple is probably the best stock buy I’ve ever made back in 2011. However, Palantir is right up there! Incredible.

According to reports from Israel, one of the main butchers has been eliminated.

Yeah that’s easy to say and remember when millions were killed by the Germans ? ….to this day the question is why didn’t anyone get there sooner ? It’s also easy to say when you are not one of them laying in the body bag.

Brian .. maybe this factored in the decision?

Just a lefty feeding into the narrative. He’s still 10x better than any politician you have on the left. Imagine Tim Walz being in charge . Personally I agree with most of his decisions.

Just a small tip for you . Check out Sandbur/Turkey Creek and others in here for advice on crabapples. You might want to consider a mix, with crabs that produce bigger apples ? Chestnut, Dolgo, etc… just a thought ?

That is a cool as heck !

Yes I think 5 total and an active creek. I’d say there is a good chance we can dam up a few wetlands that drain toward the creek . NRCS projects, USFW, Wetland Reserve are all options I’m thinking? We will see if it qualifies. I’ve done that on a couple of other farms. They like to see more...
