Here's the story that MATURITY will tell you. I'm 27, have a new born baby, 5 acres with a nice home, a 21 yo wife that is into "nest & nurture". I'm busting my ass on the place, painting, mowing, building a shop, cutting down trees, burning brush, working 50 to 60 hours a week at a regular job..
So here's what happen - you think you have everything under control and looking peachy, then along comes POST PARTUM DEPRESSION on the wife. That "wonderful home and acreage" became a prison for her. She resents the loneliness of not having family close, or friends to go visit! She resents you for working, either at the job or on the place. If you don't get the grass cut, she'll bitch, And if you do go out to cut it, she'll bitch you're not paying attention to her.
And heaven forbid, you take a few hours to go hunt or fish and leave her there all alone with the munchki, you're the lowest life form on earth and you ruined her life!
And when you are not there, the big bad boogy man can swoop down and rob you, rape her, etc. because she is all alone on that acreage and it's all YOUR FAULT.
And if you think you are immune to this situation on your new found acreage with a wife and new born child, have at it!
I sold mine, moved back close to her family and friends, gave up my dream and desires, because FAMILY comes first. Now 26 years later, I still have the same wife and a good life. But if I had stayed on that acreage (it is a damn nice one even to this day!) I wouldn't have my wife, that acreage, or the great life I have now.
But every situation is unique and so is every individual. Go for it, Ace!
