They plan to "fund their retirement" because they couldn't imagine their children loving them enough to take care of them.

@Shadowman311 More of an indictment of zoomers, because this is horribly written.How much land does this hypothetical krautling think he wants to work without employees? Because you fix the economic situation by BEING an employee instead of some degree wagging faggot. Like half the coffee shops in my city are failing because some faggot expected it to work like rental income, 90% no-show cash machine.

@Shadowman311 The very best thing about the vaxxscheme is that it was cutting through the boomer hordes like a wildfire, preventing them from burning up their undeserved wealth, allowing it to be inherited by those who will grow it for their own children.

@RogerFalcon @Shadowman311 What has any of that to do with the guy getting an agricultural degree that would be compatible with his family's agricultural business? Why would the kid be just another employee in his own family's business? I don't understand what you're trying to say here.

@Shadowman311 There are a lot of glossed over factors here, I'm sure just for the narrative. So half the land was sold, the other dude is farming his half no issue. Honestly it sounds like the typical Zoomer rage quit, where did the educational funds come from? (half the land?) can you buy more land after making farm profitable? (yes). Imagine how small the land would have to be for selling half of it to totally kill the profitability especially with things like greenhouses, micro greens, and chickens... it was licenced agro land... Every generation has its shit tier people, but this story makes it look like that family just got it back to back. On the other side, selling half the land was a shit thing to do unannounced especially without explanation (which seems severely glossed over).

@machevelian @Shadowman311 Taxes and overhead cost means that if you don't have enough land your screwed. Also good luck buying farm land in Bavaria

@machevelian @Shadowman311 Yeah, you don’t know much about running agriculture for profit. “dude lmao just buy more land” woah, simple solution, he should’ve thought of that! “Selling HALF the land kiss profitability? Imagine how small it must be” Have you ever run a business? Nobody can afford to trim 50% without cutting into bone. I know guys who are “rich” farming, where their gross income is north of a mil….but take home is less than a wendy’s franchisee. THAT is how farming goes, and that’s over here where you get subsidies and special treatment. I have little doubt the guy lopped off any chances of sustainability when he sold off half the fucking land.

@WashedOutGundamPilot @Shadowman311 So first of all the is zero numerical information, if this is even real and not a completely fabricated narrative. Thus the reason I lead with what I did. I assume your real issue is that I said 'typical zoomer Rage quit' and not anything else because your rage fest kind of sounds retarded. One can be highly profitable on 1-2 acres of land (realistically less than that), dude went to school for it supposedly, you would think if he wanted to he could slide the pieces together to make something work. The other dude that snagged the other half seems , according to the narrative, to be doing ok. Ya, Bavaria painful to operate in, and I don't know how crazy it has gotten since I left 23 years ago, but according to this narrative he had something and he just tossed it 'cuase he was pissed, that's a rage quit. Half the land=half the taxes=half the labor, ya I'm sure there could be reasons why it would be untenable but there would also be ways around those.'Less that a Wendy's franchise' being your low point:Franchise-Owned Restaurants Number of Restaurants: 5,241 Average Annual Gross Sales: $1,750,838 Median Annual Gross Sales: $1,668,908 Range of Annual Gross Sales: $411,237 to $5,099,354 Number and Percent of Restaurants at or Above Average: 2,294 (43.8%)gross vs net is always a thing in any business, that statement makes you look silly. That's ok, I still like most of your stuff.

@WashedOutGundamPilot @machevelian @Shadowman311 Also, IIRC college in Germany is free for German citizens. So even the excuse of having to sell to cover educational fees is bogus.

@john_rando @WashedOutGundamPilot @Shadowman311 "whom he has sent to agricultural college" remember we are sticking to the fabricated narrative.

@machevelian @Shadowman311 “One can be highly profitable on 1-2 acres of land (realistically less than that),”Guy? This is insane. I don’t know where the hell you live, but we’ve got small land holdings being worked in our family and they’re hobbies, not jobs. The best years will net a few hundred bucks of profit. Unless you’re growing weed there’s no way you’re making a good living on 2 acres. He’s right to walk away, if he stayed his dad would fritter the money away and then sell it anyways. Why waste years of youth in an economic death spiral for someone who didn’t return that family goodwill anyways? His dad didn’t even call to talk it over? Didn’t bring it up to his son at all, trudged ahead with selling it, ignoring any duty or stewardship over that land… and you think the SON is pouting because he’s walking away from a bum deal? What would have happened is he would give it a try, wasting his time on a dying farm, trying to balance the books in a constant losing battle until his dad sold another plot, then another, just to keep his retired ass afloat. Then he’d be out doing a career change, more youth wasted, more career momentum spent on a dead end.

@Zealist @Shadowman311 @WashedOutGundamPilot @machevelian The way I see it there's two ways to go about becoming a farmer in modernity. You can try and be profitable, but then you'll have to compete with the mega corporations and their massive factory farms. Unless you're growing something both super niche but also highly profitable I don't see any possible way. And even then if you breed exotic prize animals to sell or whatever, if it really is profitable that profitable and easy loads of people would be rushing in on it until it's not profitable. Basically a dead end unless you have some leg up, like growing something illegal or a trade secret that NEVER gets out. The other way is self-sufficiency, homesteading. Instead of trying to maximize profits you minimize costs and provide as much as physically possible yourself. This is also quite difficult but you don't really have to worry about the invisible hand of the "free" market smacking you down. It requires diverse produce and a very multi-talented person. Probably also some emergency savings and money spent to gather initial capital. Though the latter could be made easier by a communal effort. Rather than trying to achieve self sufficiency with just you or your family you can have dozens of people all working towards the same goal. This seems like both the most easy and most human way of going about it. The obvious hurdle here is gathering up the right people, though it does allow for specialization and not everyone having to be hyper competent multi disciplinary homesteaders. You could be the village tailor, carpenter, blacksmith, etc. and still be an invaluable part of the community while not touching the farms. This seems like by far the most realistic and sustainable option, in addition to basically guaranteeing (requiring) a strong community.
