Jake’s “grammy” is the woman behind most of the videos that asks him the important questions of life on the farm.

One morning Jake was sitting at the table talking with his grammy, when she started recording.

The topic was about life on the farm, but talking about life with Jake will always lead to a bit of unknowing humor.

This day was no different as he wondered and asked her if he was poor.

Jake is telling his grammy about his flatbed truck and his trailer that he uses for work down near the cows.

No exaggerations there as he really does have his own flatbed truck and trailer.

He moves the conversation onto the topic of the straw on the farm.

He let’s his grammy know he does not have to load it himself because that is what pappy does.

That’s when Jake’s mind starts to wonder. Pappy has two trailers but he only has one!

“I’m poor, ain’t I?” Jake asks his grammy.

This will not only make you smile, but also made his grammy giggle.

Jake’s grammy made sure to describe the video as,

“Jake wondering if he could possibly be poor?! No way! He’s rich in love that’s most important!”

Rich in love is the most important, grammy’s are always right.
