I would too.
Particularly from a retirement perspective.
Cattle are fairly simple and self-sufficient. No specialized equipment is needed, relatively little start-up costs, much less time-cost (as compared to growing plants)...
Granted, cows are what I know, so I'm probably biased, but this is the route we're moving toward, too.
