LITW125-Inside a MONTANA Rancher’s PAYDAY: 1,000 Acres, 1 Year! - Life in the West

Ever wondered how much money a rancher really makes? In this video, I break down the numbers on a 1,000 acre ranch in Montana—from how many cows you could raise, to how much you’d earn selling calves, to the real-world costs and profits over one year. Whether you’re dreaming of the cowboy life, considering buying land, or just curious about the economics of cattle ranching, this video lays it all out.
👉 I walk through:
 • Grazing capacity of 1,000 acres
 • Calf crop projections
 • Market sale prices
 • Ranch operating expenses
 • Total profit or loss at the end of the year
This is the truth about ranch money. No fluff. No hype. Just real numbers, real experience, and a whole lot of dirt-under-your-boots honesty.
