FYI I’m a professional horseback rider so was curious what you’d all say

[abc3643]

The only thing that scares me about hor$e$ is the amount of fucking money they suck out of your wallet faster than the black hole at the center of the galaxy.

My horse will cost be about $2,000,000 when all is said and done because of all the fucking money that I have to spend on whatever horse-related bullshit that my wife wants. Which means I have no savings and no money to invest that I can retire on.

I am 59.
My retirement account?
$400 in savings.

That's it.

I have to work until I am dead.
... all because of fucking horses.

[abc3643]

That said, I do like my horse and spend time with her.

RESPONSE TO UPDATE:
"I'm a professional horseback rider"

What does that mean?
You're a jockey?
You do equestrian sports for a living?
You lead group trail rides?
You are in rodeo doing barrel racing?

Can you be more specific?

[AviatorTom]

Not afraid at all, they're beautiful creatures. When I was younger, I spent a couple years learning to ride horses, do dressage and some light jumping.

[HeartFullOfGlue]

I'm not really scared of them but I have this reminder that they may be gentle giants but are still giants (and an animal), they can kill/seriously hurt you by accident or just out of fear. So you should always be aware of them, yourself, and your surroundings.

[SaltyBeaches]

I think it's healthy to be a little scared of them.

[Guy13]

No. We had barns horses, cows, and pigs on grandparents’ farms.

[MTC29]

I'm not afraid of horses, but I'm not completely comfortable around them, and as @Wise4myage said, animals can sense that.

[Adventurous97]

No, but I wouldn’t walk behind one too closely because they have a pretty mean kick on them when spooked!

[TommyMountainFigure]

No. I feed them regularly at my local farm. They are wonderful creatures.

[Freyke]

No, I always enjoyed handfeeding them. They're gentle giants.

[Creampiekarl420]

Well in Tennessee there is a horse ranch every 200 ft😂 so no I’ve been bitten by horses and punched them I’m not scared

[Wise4myage]

No, if you are afraid a horse will sense it and throw you off.

[Prettygurl12]

Nope! I grew up with horses. I love them lol

[Iron_Man]

No I don’t have a problem with that at all

[NorthwestRider]

No, I ride them often

[OddBeMe]

And I’ve been thrown from one.

[driven159]

[driven159]

[bigpauly]

No. I’ve always wanted to try riding one

[clampfan101]
