I am considering expanding my business ventures to purchase a relative's agricultural land, but to do it, I'd have to mortgage the assets. I'd also have to run the agri business full time or get little sleep during harvest season.
I have time before the relative retires, and he's interested in me apprenticing under him because none of his kids care about the business.
It's a frightful prospect, but its also an amazing opportunity if I can make it work.
@DoubleD I'd lean on the gut. Such experience could be a lot and it may make you have to make sacrifices, but such important knowledge makes you more flexible long term. Knowledge is your best asset and especially being able to apprentice towards it instead of having to figure it out on your own is a massive boon.
