He's not buying a spreader to save money. He's buying it so he doesn't have to ask why he spent $16,000 in the first place. I almost did the same thing.
Along time ago when I was young and ambitious a salesman persuaded me to spend a year's profit on one machine for my pipelaying business. Bad mistake, the work dried up before it had been paid for.
Just accepting accountability for yourself puts you ahead of most dudes. Now, when you make a mistake, you are not obligated to keep digging to shelter your ego.
When my sons do something dumb, and they try to deny it, they get consequences. When they tell me up front, we usually just have a good talk about not being a dumbarse in the future.
Spent how much to save $16,000 per year??? I will assume it wasn’t $16,000. Honey wagons are not cheap did he have to buy a bigger tractor to pull it. A production oriented producer can talk himself into spending 100,000 to save a few minutes of time without any sense of the return on the $100,000. Throw in the section 179 siren song 🎵 and your right there

Love it! So true!
If nothing else, you know yourself.

Great analogy Adam. I am often guilty of spinning my wheels on the obvious "easy" stuff when I should be digging into the real problem.
