What was in this mornings edition of The Farmers Club.

• Are you struggling with the banks? As Farmers, how we deal with banks has changed, and we need to be up with all those changes. I don't reckon there is a better person in the country to talk about this subject than Jeff McDonald. That's why we spoke to him in our latest podcast. This will change the way you do business. Subscribe, and I will send it to you.

• We've titled the podcast with Jeff, "Equity ain't Equity anymore". Why, because as Farmers we have this well-held belief that it matters most when in today's banking world, it matters, yes, but not as much as we think.

• Banking is a boring subject, right? One prerequisite with this latest podcast was that we spiced it up, related the subject with plenty of stories and real-world examples. I think Jeff did well here.

• Want to hear more from guys like Jeff McDonald? These smart operators have the knowledge to help keep your businesses above the average line. That's what we are about.

• It was move-back-in day on Saturday after living remote and in many different places for 6 months while our house was being renovated. It's good to be home.

• Are you dreading succession? A smart person said it can all be solved by using superannuation and loading up the kids at an early age. It's a good idea, this one. We wrote about it today.

• Farmers don't care about the finance, they just want the Tractor…. We wrote about where everything sits as far as priorities are concerned.

• We highlighted one of our replies in our feature story on Saturday morning. It was in reply to a story we wrote on Friday about how we are losing the ability to solve problems in this country. It's the best reply we have ever had from a Farmer. Subscribe and get access to it.

• Have a great Monday night.
