00:08Profit margin is damn slim in farming
00:10You've got to pick out that one thing that you can
00:13make a half a point, half a percent
00:15more by doing this or that
00:19It was a good life, but it was tough
00:36Some landmen start showing up
00:38wanting to offer us a lease on our mineral acres
00:48Then they just kind of kept coming
00:56And I got a cell phone call that I had a message
00:59on my home phone
01:01that some gentleman had called and wanted to
01:05did it all well on grandma's quarter
01:08up and down and doesn't even take Sundays off
01:13My first thoughts were, well
01:16which one of the neighbors was pulling a joke on us, you know
01:20So anyways, I'm a fucking
01:22We're family, dude
01:23I'm a 27-year-old roughneck, you know
01:25We work seven days on till our days
01:28It can be 40 to 50 below
01:29Man, I should have quit the second day
01:32But I got one paycheck, I got two paychecks, I got three paychecks
01:36Where the fuck else am I going to make $85,000 a year on a GED?
01:41I'm walking on millions of dollars of oil
01:52And I'm a millionaire myself
02:01For those whose land sits on top of oil
02:04and they've retained their mineral rights
02:06and there's a well being drilled on their property
02:09I assume that they're going to walk around with permagrin
02:11That is, they won't be able to stop smiling
02:13because there's a lot of oil going to come out of the Bakken shale
02:16and that means a lot of new wealth
02:38They have an idea in their head that you're getting easy money
02:42or you're jealous
02:44and it's sad because my surroundings have changed
02:48but I really haven't changed at all
02:49Who do I resemble?
02:54Don't you know?
02:57You ever heard of who you have?
02:59Now there's a little bit of money out there
03:02and there's a lot more people
03:06If you look out in the parking lot
03:09you'll see Louisiana to Montana to Texas
03:15license plates from everywhere
03:16You know, our local barber in Stanley
03:19he probably knew everybody that ever sat down in his barber chair
03:23and a first name probably knew their kids too
03:25That's different now
03:35It's their�
03:37That's aloha
03:38I don't know
03:50I don't know
04:14Grazie a tutti
