What have you done in preparation for the 2020 hay season?

[Peter 315]

Average is about 218.00 a ton , comes out to about 4.35 a small square bale 40 pounds.........

 

[Hay Dude]

Good price, but I see you are picking it up yourself.
I get $275/ton delivered within 25 miles

 

[Peter 315]

500.00 for a trailer load delivered..........I spent quality time with the wife getting it.......

 

[Peter 315]

I was getting 1500 small bales a year just me and the wife,picking it up off the field I was running 3 trailers and loading 150 to 200 on each some times 2 loads a night after work dropping and hooking trailers, Hay from down the road next town then up to Maine.......

 

[Peter 315]

275. a ton and you still cry about money.......:laughing:

275. a ton and you still cry about money.......:laughing:

Obviously you have zero knowledge of the input costs of making hay :laughing:
And for what its worth, I dont care how much money one makes if they "cry about money". It is their hard earned money and whether they make very little or a lot, they should conserve all they can.

 

[Peter 315]

You can't take with you so you should enjoy it . spend it now while you can still walk I like buying toys , Do I want a motorcycle now or when I'm 90 if I make it ...

 

[Peter 315]

See if we lived closer I would let you use my tilt deck and you would sell me hay cheap :laughing:

I’m beginning to break the permanent folded crease in my wallet :laughing:
As you know, I treated myself to a new, somewhat nicely appointed RAM 5500 :drink: I saw you trying to get me to buy all kinds of fancy accessories. Are you trying to get my wife to sleep in another room?:ashamed: :laughing::laughing:
Now don’t get any more ideas about spending TOO much more of my dusty pile of money. :laughing:
