I was just making an observation that farmers and ranchers don't have the market cornered on being "lucky to break even". There are lots of folks in that predicament.


Self-employed compared to a paid salary are too completely different things.

Some who makes $800 a week and barely breaks even, is living above their means. When someone self employeed and the market decides good/bad year its different.



No, they're living above your arbitrary standard of what someone's "means" are. You have no idea what other people have to do with their money.
