My wife has a cousin who has more money that he has sense, and he got into the miniature horse business a number of years ago. Thought he was going to get rich, instead he still has them, and every time I see him, he's griping about what it costs to feed them.

If a person is going to get into a niche business such as exotic cattle, or horses, they damn well better have a market for them that they can depend on.
