This is the first heat where I would turn down the offer entirely. I'm good.

I knew there were plenty of 'em out there but I didn't realize they were quite that pervasive.

That part of the world is hugely irrigated. In the water table there are like stones, instead of sand, so water flows into wells really easily. It's deep and takes some power to get out, but there are some big ass wells up there. Part of Wallace County is in my GWMD and they're trying to get some restrictions on it up there, but currently the pumping limits up there are 2 Acre Ft/allocated acre. And places up there can hit it.

For reference, my farm is about 30% irrigated, dads is less than 10%. And none of our systems pumped over 12 ac/in (half the allotment) for a lot of years now.

It's definitely different up there.

There are a couple (not me), but I'm guessing they're looking for outside money with that particular post.

Damn it....I was hoping this was going to be the Kansas entry so I could keep arrowhead within 100 miles....zero interest in Sharon Springs...if we're talking driving distance, I can't even get to Garden City....

If you were interested in renting the shop, probably 20K ish provided there is water I could get out at Volume.

Let's just say 2.25M for this year.

Looks to me like if you liquidate the equipment, sight unseen, you're looking at another 1.5 -2M

I'd definitely be interested in renting that.

Wait, wait, wait. So you're saying that my annual stipend for Kansas would go up from $250,000 to $2,750,000 with only a little contract signing work? If that's the case, I might enjoy living on an isolated farm.

But still...how am I going to spend that money? Garden City is 99.9 miles away, so I can get there.

Maybe I'd devote my time to building a giant pyramid or something.

And wait - if I got a $25 million loan at 5 percent (just guessing), that's a payment of $1.25 million per year. And you'd pay me $2.25 million a year to use the land?

Farm ownership loans are at 2.5 percent from the USDA.

Colby has reasonable amenities, but nothing to do. Real answer is a personal chef and a helicopter, then build whatever you want to do. Unless you want to get to **** you money, then we can work the lease a little harder, leverage the equity in land, buy a bunch of other farms, and after their paid off, then you can have **** you money on the back of my labor. :D

Is it because of those emails that I sent to Gruden?

We'll figure this out. Maybe we can mobilize the chiefsplanet investing club. I think your labor can make me - er, us - a rich man.

If you can get it from a bank, it's better. USDA sucks.
