Default Retired

After reading what you guys have retired from, I'm impressed to the point that I am almost embarrassed to admit that I was a simple farmer. I had 5 poultry houses and raised broilers. I contracted with Tyson and raised appr. 1 million per year. Also had pecan trees on the farm and sold them through a brokerage and made enough to pay the taxes on the farm. It was my wife's family farm, so I owe all that to her.

I'm proud of my wife. She retired last year as the principal of an elementary school. She's the one with the education and the brains, except for that lapse when she married me.
