Oh no, none. Had to learn mad skills the hard (best) way. Raised four wonderful kids who are giving us grand and great grand kids. 40 years of organic food, well water, fresh air, wood heat. Went from being a motorcycle mechanic and part time teamster to being a minimum wage farm hand in order to learn what I needed to know.
Now we have three places, savings, equipment, shops, etc. Went totally and completely flat broke three times in 40 years but changed direction and came back. It's all in your head and heart.
