TOTALLY depends on where the 640 acres are.

And my answer is no.

EDIT: 640 isn't a great expanse. It's a mile by a mile.


On a john deere no big whoop
behind a team of oxen, yeah , that's a lot of area

2. You will get basic farming equipment to accomplish the above. It's not fully automated, but you're not out there with an oxen team. It's hard work, but not hardscrabble. You will receive some initial farming training if you need it, and a homestead extension officer will visit once a month to advise you as needed.

Well my parents paid for my education. I got a couple of degrees, got a good job and a good life and I did most of it on my own through hard work, I would go for the experience and adventure. And after I built something over there, id have to listen to guys like you asking me if I did it on my own? And the answer would always be the same. I'm not really that tough, but I do work hard. If you have to ask that question, you definitely wouldn't understand...

Sounds like a lot of pain and bullshit.

Also, the OP is NOT the first time the word "hardscrabble" has been posted on CP.

I was shocked to learn people use that word.

Trade the 640 acres for 640 square feet of hardscrabble beachfront condo and a $5000 per month subsidence income and I'm all over it.

Pablo 08-21-2013 06:30 PM
Hardscrabble is the sort of board game they play in penitentiaries. I didn't think Rainman was so in touch with his deviant side.

NSA news came out and he couldn't handle it.

Stopped all online and telephone communication.

Just a guess.

I'd do it if it was on Mars or France.

You wouldn't have to worry about that. I'd be more worried about this MTG idiot spreading his redneck genes with my OTHER serfs

**** yes.
That's easy living.

Not so fast. You realize you have to fight Rain Man on the undercard of MTD #10 vs me, for toughest guy on the plains right?

Setsuna 08-21-2013 09:32 PM
I'm a suburban wimp. I couldn't farm to save my life.

Yeah, 'cause you are the only person in this country that has worked hard for what you have. :rolleyes:

You didn't even pay for your own damn education...asswipe.
