It shows the difference between a hard farm life & prehaps, some out of shape city dwellers that play games on their tv sets & might not have proper work ethics.

I was begining to turn into a couch potatoe until I bought a wood stove and had to chop a winter’s supply of wood in two months because I didn’t have enough money for fuel oil & didn’t qualify for energy assistance.

Of course, next year , with the money I saved by not buying fuel oil, I bought a 22 ton gasoline log splitter, but I still cut, with a chain saw, split, with a hydralic splitter, haul with a wheel barrow & stack the wood, by hand.

Long story short, I went from a flabby 185lbs to 150 lbs of solid muscle & a first time in my life flat stomach & toughened up some & saved a good bit of money from my proir years fuel bill, to boot.

I pity some kids that might be spoiled by their parents & then have to go out into the real world & somehow make a living ,all unprepaired for lives realities.

There really is a lesson to be learned from the joke. little may some know what awaits.

I am 61 & still cutting splitting & hauling wood. I don’t need to do it any more ,financially, but I enjoy doing it for the extercise & the fun of it. It keeps me fit. FYI, I am definately a red neck, even though I gave up drinking beer a long time ago,
since I have 7 cars & 3 pu trucks but only 4 that run. The other 8 are storage units now. I almost ferget, 1 motor coach that runs & 1 moble home& a $200,000 house,after the real estate crash..

I finally sold my boat because it was sitting in the drive way for 12 years. But I still have my gun collection. oh & I live in connecticut so you dont have to be a southerner to be a red neck.
And ,my motor coach and moble home has curtains but my house don’t.
I altogether resemble too many of those you might be a red neck jokes to deny it. Think of me as a poorer & older, with a smaller house– Ted Nugent (all his cars run!) & he has more giutars & plays them tons better, than me, too!

The boy scout moto is right—Be Prepaired! Knowledge is power & a man is only as good as his tools. Keep a financial cusion to fall back on when times get tough but have your fun while your still young enough to enjoy it.
