I disagree. I’ve seen with enough money and grit you can provide life saving heart surgery on a baby.
MONEY is the most important thing. With basic needs met you can then focus on reaching for the stars of self actualization. I think a guy named Maslow coined that.
But I do agree that it’s like Sisyphus when adding more acres, but apparently it does help.
Looking for other sources of income I think you’re right. Great grandaddy always said farming just pays the bills. But the real money is in the real estate.
But it can be hard to get land paid for on a commodity farmers salary
