If a man’s wealth is measured on skill , character ,determination and likability , this guy is one of the richest people on the planet.What an inspiration, all the way from Australia.
Thank you John Holland for sharing your lovely story of a life well lived. I hope your land is preserved for generations to come. You worked so hard for it.
@@shantishanti1949as his friend said "to be a funky" some have received such treatment to find out they were treating us like a mule, a dog, like an instrument of war or work for their good, while we were getting trained to become better prepared in life to survive. So marriage can be good but some parents tried to avoid some of their children to fall into it in order that their family gets afloat first.
@@chriskourlos4407because trump protects our lands? RFK is the only hope for that cause, but with being partners with trump, there is no way sir. Don’t mix this up with thinking I’d vote for Kamala…. Just saying, trump is not an advocate for our lands. Facts are facts. This is coming from a ranch owner and major outdoor enthusiast. All the best regardless sir ❤
Just a wonderful life fulfilling 4 srasons of work to 94 like he is part of the land and is living on memories of times gone by anc heartfelt emotional live if family past. Damn shame some woman did not bear a few children but this is his story. And i couldnt stop feeling the bitter cold their just befire 94th birthday in may when the dripping of winters grip starts slipping. We here in the cities mostly have no idea of this mans hardships. I pray God lighten his load and continue blessing him richly, more than he could ever ask or think! God oves you sir!!!❤😂🎉
I've been to the West when I was in my twenties and there is where I wanted to grow old and die myself. Time and circumstances never allowed me to get to Montana and put down my roots and do ranching, but my soul will always be there. Life isn't just dreams that can be fulfilled, you havr to have money and time. Both of which I never was abe to accumulate as I worked myself to a broken person in body and soul.
What a great life to live a free bird without all the stress of being in the cage of a big city , that's the recipe for a long healthy life , god bless this great man
hopefully the land will be kept open for all and natural, like it has been. It's a hard life trying living off these ranches nowadays, but it has kept Jon busy for all of his life
Incredible film, i enjoyed it thoroughly. Lovely old guy. The land and all the views are incredibly beautiful, it would be so sad for it to be developed.
Hello dear Sir, Your documentary really struck a cord with me, I’m guessing you’ll probably never get to read this but here it goes anyway. I’m an Australian grew up on a sugar plantation that wasn’t our own. This property was sold to developers. I spent many years wanting to continue on land with out no success. I now have two sons one 23 and one only 12 so if god willing I’d like to meet with you and this miserable weather you speak of and perhaps keeping your dream alive you may take interest in us. We don’t need to own your land it could be managed anyway you see fit I’d just like the opportunity to live the live you have And have the boys respect the same. God loves you buddy he loves us all. Jason.
Awesome documentary. His grit and determination is something rarely seen these days. Brings back memories of my grandparents and living on the family farm years ago, precious memories. 🪶 ✨ Journey Well John
Absolutely the most interesting person i was blessed to have seen just doing his thing ...🎉 at 94 years young what a national treasure this man is God bless him❤ They just don't make um like that anymore 😢 One of a kind 🎉🎉
Foundations are only in it for their own gains and not for the benefit of all. He is better off leaving it to the locals that respect the land and grew up there.
Leaving private land to the bureaucratic state is the height of stupidity. NGOs are wolves in sheep's clothing. Preserve the way of life instead of hand over land to elitists. Nobody can farm if there aren't any more farms. Or did you not see the MacMansions hemming him in? 406 is a state of mind, not a state of wannabes with 401Ks to harvest.
He still has his property BECAUSE he didn't marry and have kids. His parents probably realized he was an easy target and taught him self-sufficiency. I commend his parents for their foresight. They left him something real, made him avoid the traps, and now look at him. What a legacy.
Fantastic documentary about this family ranch. US has lost too many independently owned farm and ranch. My hubby's family are 4 generations of diary, horse and cattle ranchers in Central California. His grandfather was the founder of Knudsen diary and wide variety of diary products sold through out California. Cheers, CL ByTheSeashore, small coastal village Northern California
I love these independent films about people's lives around the world and it was a pleasure to watch this 94 year old gentleman still working his farm and his best friend from childhood was there as well👍...I don't know when this film was made but I hope John has sorted his will out accordingly because to see a farm like this being sub divided would be sacrilege,but unfortunately we are seeing lots of it old farm lots in America being subdivided and then that land is lost to history...very nice little film wished it been longer but I still enjoyed it❤️👍🏴🏴🏴.....
This is so interesting on so many levels as he could almost be everyman really as we age. My neighbour, female, lived alone and always wanted to die in the house right next to mine - a large one, lovely garden but last year her sons had to put her into a care facility. She is 90 this year. I wish she could just have fallen in the garden and died as she wanted but apparently she is having the time of her life in the new care home and talking to everyone there so it is perhaps not so bad. My parents both died, literally, in the house they had bought over 50 years before - the best way to go. The other everyman issue is that in some larger families in the past one child often did not marry. My grandmother was one of 10 (11 but 1 died), her own mother widowed twice and one of the oldest sisters never married. I don't think she was prevent as her almost same aged sister did and men were short during world war I, but she was an example of living with mother until death. My friend who has a farm (female) never left and inherited from her father and has never married nor had children. Good luck to the old man here. May he live long and he is lucky to have such a caring nephew. Sometimes we live long precisely because we are active every day.
A sad story really. With short sighted parents and no gift of capitalism, has left this beautiful soul to wither imo. His parents should have supported him to marry so he too had someone to help him and inherit the land with a couple of kids. He should have sold off some of the more undesirable pieces of the property and took the money and built a proper pole barn to store the hay and a calving shed with a bit of heat and protecting from predators and weather for the new born cattle. Money could be gotten recycling the steel around the place and a mirco hydro power system installed along with a upgraded water system that works all the time and especially in the winter. This is what happens when people lack a good imagination for the better. If he had some people to love and love him back, he would have had more motivation to develop the property better imo. Living to that age is great if you have a good quality of life but he certainly is on the edge.
You are so wrong. I lived for 50 years with the bare essentials. No pumping, no modern heat or water in the house. Just hydro. We were healthier leaving of the land and raised our food. We sold to live better and what did we got Sick. We exposed our selves to kinds of sicknesses. I would give anything to live like him again. Clean clean air and water.
@@margaretporkolab7166 I think you missed the point. It is an opinion. Neither right or wrong. Your entitled to your opinion and I will respect it. I did not said sell the whole farm but portions of no use to him to farm. Why should he not have a family? Burying the waterline deep enough so it will not freeze. You know low tech solutions to make life a little easier later in life. Nothing wrong with that.
Excellent Maternal Traits in that Herd. Tickled to see that Cow calve in the Cold Weather and get the Calf up and nurse. You Sir, are a Good Rancher to develop such a Genetic Base in a Difficult Environment....
Protect this man, protect this ranch, protect this way of life at all costs! Can’t believe anyone would want to buy it all up, destroy it and turn it into a millionaires playground.. 😢 If I was wealthy enough, I’d buy up all of these old places, and put preservation orders on them, and pay off any debts that the families have, so they can continue to manage the ranches without having financial worries..
TV shows just like Yellowstone have driven century old farms into the pockets of the millionaires. Sad that a way of life is now just a play ground for others.
Dearest Man,... there are so many homeless people in your country.. Why do t you interview some. Find a young family, that are willing to learn from you. How to make it on the land.. and look after you, while they learn. I'm in Australia. I am 76 yes young. Trying to build something for MY grandchildren. Perhaps you too, can have a surrogate family. God Bless you sweety. Lorraine
@viviannefraser5974 doesn't have to be difficult. WOOFERs provide a great model of how to go about it. (Willing Workers on Organic farms). There are other similar outfits operating quite well...
@@shantishanti1949 I am sure John had something to do with not marrying haha. Not everyone is suited for a lifelong partner. Some of us prefer the independence and quiet of a single life.
@@shantishanti1949 I didn't get that feeling that he stayed because he felt obliged to stay. A majority of children who grow up on farms and cattle ranches choose to stay, especially in the years John grew up there. I think that this man loves his land and chose to stay. It's a love of land and place that only generational farmers and rural families can understand. And besides, living on a farm doesn't preclude finding a wife haha. I just think this is who he is.
@@shantishanti1949 Most parents cannot wait until the children are all gone. There are some exceptions and there most certainly are narcissistic psychopaths that want what they want. My point is this: John had a choice to make just like we all do. He willingly made that choice and possibly sacrificed his dreams. John never stated in this video that he ever felt like he got the short end of the stick. He never complains about giving up anything to be there for his parents. He never said he sure would like to have gotten married and had a family and at 90 years of age I believe he would have done so. People like yourself project your own thoughts and feelings of how you would do onto the life of others. By doing so you believe it validates your point. " If I would not want to do that then someone else would not either." By assuming and projecting your thoughts and picture of the ideal " life" your wrong on both counts. GOD honors those who honor and even sacrifice for their parents. He curses those who do not. Get a Bible and read it and you will find out exactly WHY John lived a long life. Some are called to this some are not.
What a great look into John's life. I wish we knew how many acres John has...looked like a lot. I really enjoyed the movie. Montana is beautiful and vast. I wonder if he missed not having a family,wife. Thanks for sharing John. Not sure the outcome but chances are.....
I enjoyed that, Montana is such a beautiful place & it's good to see old timers living life in a way we were designed to rather than watching screens in some office all day.
All the old timers are getting bought or pushed out now so rich or wanna be rich californians and washingtonians and coloradoans can ruin it like they did their states.
Resilience, we're calving now it's late winter here in central Victoria Oz the temperature overnight won't dip below 5C, that calf looked bloody cold 👍.
they say this, if you hurry in life you shorten your life I have learnt this from one man who told me live like a tortoise don't accumulate much be sustainable at the end of it we gonna leave it all
No, they will not. I'm 57 and feel like I am fortunate to have experienced the tail end of this great legacy and way of life that once was for a brief moment in America. We have changed so much for the worse in my lifetime, I can't imagine how this man feels.
For those of us who are actually cowboys and ranch, we can't afford to get the land to do what we love and he would approve of so it goes to California snobs.
None of them thought the no marriage thing through very well because now he has no children and grandchildren to keep the ranch going. I would at least have a good dog for a companion. 33:19 Kenny gonna sell that land and skeedadle back to Ohio. 33:45 I notice there was no handshake for the nephew, he definitely getting the cash and gone
Such a sad but beautiful legacy. So many people would benefit from living and learning like this. I've helped on ranches for years and a helper would be nice for John. What state is this?
If a man’s wealth is measured on skill , character ,determination and likability , this guy is one of the richest people on the planet.What an inspiration, all the way from Australia.
