Anybody ever figure out what it costs to volunteer? Using boarding fees as a basis it costs between $3600 and $4800 a year

to keep a horse, plus vets and farriers. Insurance on the horse (liability) is around another $300. Inspecting, registering, and insuring the trailer adds about $200.

A ¾ ton truck to haul it and repairs?? How about a set of tires for the trailer at $700 a set? Monthly training hauls, in between riding and conditioning, not just tack but other personal equipment for all weather riding……………………

 

It may be tax deductible if you are a member of a properly organized SAR unit but I run close to $6000 a year base line or fixed overhead.  And my hourly rate is $150/hour for consultation.
