Location: Oklahoma | If someone gave you $15,000 and your only condition to getting the money was it had to be used for equine purposes (i.e. can't be used to pay off debts).... what would you do with yours? |

Location: Midwest | Put the money towards fencing and building a barn on property we lease.
Maybe get a nice colt barrel prospect in addition if there is money leftover.
If I couldn't do that, I would upgrade my horse trailer. |

Location: Kansas | Newer truck and I'm sure I could do a lot of vet work with the extra. Maybe buy a treeless saddle for Joker since he likes them but I am too cheap to buy a $1000 saddle for a 21 year old horse. lol. |

Location: Montana | I'd use it as part of a down payment on my own country/horse property so I wouldn't have to board and I could have as many horses as I want (or could afford at least, LOL).

Hey that vetos my idea!
But, I think I would build a 6 horse barn with a loft.
Any maybe if there was some left buy a few (very few) fresh roping steers-whew they're expensive. |

Location: Lost in the corn of Iowa. | I'd hire a stable boy to take with me to shows, that way I don't have to saddle or brush out my own horse. And perferably one who doesn't know any English, that way when he screws it up he won't understand when I'm cussing at him for not meeting my expectations.

| I would like to pay off bills with it but I think I would use it for fencing and taking care of our pasture. It's mostly weeds and I think it really needs a small irrigation system to make do right. Good ole sandy loam
