Dear Dave, I graduated from college two years ago, and I have a good job making $60,000. I have about $10,000 in student loan debt, but my mom and dad have a real issue with their roof. It’s leaking in places to the point they have to set buckets around to catch the water, and I’ve gotten repair estimates of $3,000 to $5,000. They’re good, hard-working, blue collar folks, but they’re less fortunate financially and have more debt than I do. What should I do first — help them fix the roof or pay off my student loan debt? Jordan What’s Reasonable Fun? Dear Dave, We’re debt-free except for our house. I’ve been talking to a friend PIERRE, S.D. – The South Dakota Department of Tourism about how much money to allow for fun in your budget. The other day we bought a $100 bottle of wine, and she thought that was is reminding both resident and non-resident hunters that unreasonable. What’s your opinion? despite decreased brood counts in 2017, South Dakota is still Beth home to some of the best pheasant hunting opportunities in the world. Dear Beth, “Harsh weather conditions over the past year have Something like that depends entirely on your overall financial situation. Buying a $100 bottle of wine is pretty stupid if you only certainly taken their toll on this year’s pheasant crop,” said make $20,000 a year. It’s not unreasonable, though, if you make Jim Hagen, Secretary of the Department of Tourism. “How$200,000 a year. Having a great income-to-asset ratio and living ever, let’s not forget that the average pheasant population in debt-free gives you the opportunity to relax and enjoy a few things. South Dakota for the past 20 years has been 7.4 million birds Dave You’ve got to take the whole picture into account. I know a guy annually, despite varying brood counts. That population is who makes well over $15 million a year, and he bought a $200,000 car. As a ratio, that’s a very small percentage of his income. So, it’s significantly higher than any other state in the union, and has Dear Jordan, kind of silly to say an item is too expensive, or an irresponsible allowed hunters to harvest more than 1 million birds in each You’ve got a great spirit, man. If I woke up purchase, based on price alone. of the last three years, or 9.5 birds per hunter, per year.” in your shoes, I’d probably help them fix the roof first.

Time for dreams to come true and for disappointments to temporarily sweep through our lives. But the disappointments can’t really get much of a purchase, because there’s too much fun going on. Last year’s surprise winner of the quilting competition, Windy Wilson, didn’t win this year, but he was ‘honorably mentioned,’ which is pretty good for an old cowboy and camp cook. Windy was having a deep-fried turkey leg later. When the boys from the Mule Barn found him, and commiserated with him on his lack of a blue ribbon, he just told them, “Boys, I got honorably mentioned this here year, and when you jest consider all them needle ladies I go up against, ain’t bad. Ain’t bad a-tall.” Doc has a bottle of his homemade wine in the action this year, but the rest of the members of the world-dilemma think tank think Doc’s vino is going to tank. They’ve sampled it before. Doc even had Dewey bring over a pickup load of fertilizer last spring for his grapevines. But when he’d announced this one morning at coffee, Steve leaned over and whispered in Bert’s ear, “Better off eating the fertilizer and pouring that wine on the rose bushes.” Dud was quieter than usual at the turkey leg get together. He could probably enter the accordion-playing competition, but he wasn’t even close to being good enough to give the others a run for their money. His book, well, it might not be published for years yet. And there wasn’t a book-writing contest at the fair, anyway. But it’s fair time, and there’s just so much time to entertain disappointments before they are swept away by the happy screams of children coming from the midway, and the looks of pride when a young person brings a beautiful animal into the show ring to be judged. Besides, where else can you find a deep-fried turkey leg?
