[RC] Buying/Selling/ Saving $$$ - rides2farI can't count "the cost of> operation" - feed, farrier, vet, board. He considered those things just> part of the cost of using a horse. I have SAVED thousands of dollars buy owning horses. I honestly think if we listed it all out I'd be WAY in the "good". Expenses horses have saved me: Prozak: I'm guessing it's expensive but thanks to riding I don't need it. Drug rehab for my kids: Very expensive, but my kids don't have time for that, they're outside fooling with the animals. Lawyer's fees: Unlike most people, I've never had to pay for a divorce, probably because riding keeps me mellow. I've also never murdered my children requiring a defense attorney...also due to riding. Getting my nails done: I'm amazed that pretty much everyone I know who doesn't ride does this, and was THRILLED to find that my sister-in-law spent as much on her nails as I do on my horses's shoes! Shopping: Seems all my non-horse acquaintances spend more on the "bargains" they find when they shop every Saturday, than I spent to have a horse to keep me busy that day. Jewelry: Can't wear it, might get a finger yanked off. I could go on and on. I may go buy a horse today just because I need the extra income. :-)) Angie ________________________________________________________________ The best thing to hit the Internet in years - Juno SpeedBand!
