Sure, it sounds like a dream job to me too but I understand the reality of it is much more difficult than I can even imagine! <br /><br />I'm sure there is a huge difference between just doing it and doing RIGHT. I think it is your high standards that ultimately make it profitable and sustainable. I wonder how many of the people who contact you have enough capital from day 1 to provide the kind of service that any horse owner paying retirement board would expect. Some probably do but I bet some are thinking they could imporve as they got clients, which I think is not likely to work well. <br /><br />I DO think it's good they are contacting you and asking questions though! Getting information from the best is at least a good place to start :)RuckusButthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14760056031442317243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2113210295764288330.post-5291538269491532992009-11-18T07:34:08.088-06:002009-11-18T07:34:08.088-06:00Nice post and many questions answered for people w...Nice post and many questions answered for people wondering if they would like to have a retirement farm....however you only touched lightly on the physical side at the end. I can tell you two must be pretty young and in good health!? We don't have near the equipment you do and maybe that's the difference but I would be physically exhausted....I am with just six horses! LOL! But we're older too. We once thought about a boarding facility in our newer big barn (which is our round pen) at the very beginning of our horse ownership but you pretty much have to have an indoor arena for clients to ride wouldn't you? I guess I would want one if I boarded a horse elsewhere so I could ride anytime. You are so organized and treat your clients/horses so well....it's refreshing to know that people do care what type of services they provide. What a great job you and Jason do....and you're a team...so many could not work their husband! I think we could do it too if my hubby wasn't a 9-5er ME. <br /><br />Hey next time you get a run on those socks....send them my way! My kids were just making fun of mine with holes! LOL! Have a great day....more rain here and the rest of the week! Which means I'll be shuffling horses in and out of their stalls to clean and work them in the round pen to give them exercise....it's just too muddy and they've exhausted our pastures....we don't need them torn up as well!
