md, Its kinda like this if your pheasant hunting and the biggest rooster comes up right in front of you do you take a shot or just stare? The same can be applied to land hunting. JUST PULL THE TRIGGER!
Should I have been bidding?

You did the right thing by not buying. :thumbsup:
I try not to lie but if somebody asks me to I'll consider it especially if its to make someone feel better. Usually I only do that for my girlfriend but I think this is a special situation.
There's always good land for sale and next time something good pops up, you won't hesitate.

I got pretty serious about shopping for land recently, but decided against it b/c my good farmer buddy suggested that I wait another year or 2. He believes land prices will continue to decline. I know he knows better than I do b/c I've never bought land and he's purchased nearly 4,000 acres in his lifetime. I'm taking his advice and holding off on buying right now. I'm just going to find a lease for now and wait to buy for a couple more years.

Sorry bro, ....but here comes another boot. Lincoln or Turner County land is probably worth that or a little more.
We do have to keep in mind that not all is farmable. I call that habitat! Not the greatest pheasant area in South Dakota, but there are numbers of birds where there is habitat in those counties.

How long you going to hold? Capital Gains tax breaks are disappearing. Takes some time to clear them (and they take a BIG bite out) if you are thinking investment.

you did the right thing if your wife is still happy. i almost bought land. hard to convince wife it was an investment. now i just book hunts some where special. cheaper that way. i can always sneak on coots or bennelliboys land. who knows maybe i should book with uguide.

BC is right. I think my first marriage ended with my first land purchase. Bought it for $11,000 and had to sell it 1 year later for $12,000 as part of divorce.
With wife gone I got more land now and found good woman who owns 160 acres herself
.When I die she will be well taken care of by the land and its value.:thumbsup:
My wife wants a new house but houses around Mpls are really not worth squat. I am teaching her how to calculate debt to asset ratios and show me how the house purchase makes sense.
