HOW I BECAME RICH ... selling the family farm! | The Hoof GP

[@zandervanwyk4844]

Seeing this video now in 2023, and knowing that you have a porsche and mclaren in your barn now just shows that hard work and consistency pays off! Well done mate! Really inspiring.

The fact that you’re not bitter about what happened says a lot about your character. Thanks for sharing

[@ThoughtCrimeCriminal]

He may not be bitter now but i can guarantee you when it first happened some shady "granny had a unfortunate accident and now shes dead" plans were thrown around at the dinner table.... lololol

[@mbcalderwood]

We had something similar in my family. But I'm not bitter because there's never my money. So I can totally understand him

[@angeloddrev]

Lol I used to care for my elderly neighbour for years and years, taking her to all her doctors appointment, buying her food, tending her house and garden etc for free and she said towards the end of her life she would leave me her house. I never expected it, I did it because she was like a grandma to me, and her son was useless and uncaring. She was in her 90's and frail in her tiny home, meanwhile he and his wife had sold their London house for millions and retired, but every year he'd turn up Christmas Day expecting dinner. She was sick for a long time and I cared for her. After she passed, she left the house to her son & he skipped all her beautiful possessions and sold the house to really awful people. He said if I wanted her car (mine was clapped out) I would have to pay for it. I did laugh, I never asked for a thing. Some people can be really odd, you can never figure them out. I did not even get a thank you for all those years of care. When his mother was in hospital many times, he would ring me and ask me to go in and then ring him to tell him how she was because he was too busy lol Even when it was clear at the end she would not leave hospital, he booked a holiday! Best thing is not to expect anything from anyone, and then they can never disappoint :) If I had my time again, I would still care for her, but roll my eyes even harder every time she mentioned 'her amazing caring son'. I still wonder what she would think of him tossing out all her beloved ornaments she'd collected for years. Some of them were farm brasses too, as she'd lived on a farm as a child. Heirlooms, skipped.

[@BboyMobster]

Angel that’s sad that her son had to be that way. After all the things her son did I know he has to life with a life full of guilt especially the way he treated you. I’ll never understand people that are greedy and heartless as your neighbors son. We need more people like you in the world. You will be blessed one day in away that you probably won’t even realIze why because you did a deed from the heart and didn’t expect any reward from it. Blessing to you.

You need to start being honest with people about who you really are, and what your intentions are. You have taken advantage of your subscribers horribly. Somehow you have managed to make your problems your subscribers problems. You brought in 20+ thousand dollars in donations on your go fund me because a journalist exposed you and your criminal record for fraud, forgery, theft by deception, Tampering with evidence, intimidating a witness/victim, corruption of a minor under the age of 15...I mean the list goes on and on... you drive a Tesla... you took out two PPP loans... you have multiple companies and you’re a realtor. I mean you took out a total for a total of $30,000 in PPP...You take no responsibility for every charge on your record, you have an excuse and say that you’re the victim...nothing is ever your fault. Meanwhile during the Covid pandemic people are struggling to feed their children. So many are left to pick up the pieces of their lives.... All while you our banking on people during such a hard time. People donate to you and you say that you didn’t ask for it but you set up the go fund me which means you don’t have to ask... the intention is clear when you set up a go fund me. You sent Messages out to all of your followers on your public telegram chat and said hey everyone go and dig up some dirt on that journalist here’s his name find out whatever you can and let’s find some incriminating stuff about him and see how he likes it. You are using your subscribers to fight your battles for you, and now you’re taking their money to pay out on your criminal record and charges.... you always have something to say to make people feel sorry for you. You have created a cult like a mentality and it blows my mind. I called you out in your chat and no less than 40 to 50 of your followers called my private phone numbers all night and threatened to hurt my children, to set my house on fire, that I better watch my back something bad might happen to me or somebody I love. You even sent Out another post that was a directl threat to anyone that tries to expose you... your followers have become obsessed with you.... you silence and censor anybody that questions you or your record. The problem is you are consistently being caught in your lies. You told the paper that you had over 100,000 followers that were paying for your legal representation and that Lynnwood was your attorney. You are so delusional. The information that you’re putting out on Q and everything else.. i’m sure that’s all legit because it’s not actually coming from you...you are just putting together the facts. But you hide behind all of that stuff so that your real agenda doesn’t show. Your real agenda is to make dollars while you can because you know that the people that are diehard for making America great again and the great awakening are diehard. The little girl that accused you of sexual misconduct and the one that you were charged for molesting was dragged all over your channel and you allowed it. Someone that may or may not have been a victim of sexual abuse a child no less. You called her a liar and you smeared her all over the place. You allowed your subscribers to make fun of her and drag her up and down in your chat room..... grown adults victimizing a child that said that somebody hurt them....maybe she didn’t testify at the last moment...you already have been charged with witness/victim intimidation... I wonder why she felt scared and didn’t say anything. However, even without her testimony or evidence they charged you and then sentenced you. But you have an excuse for that too. When people fall on hard times normal people they’ll sell a car, cut out unnecessary and frivolous things to save money. However, people are struggling right now while you’re driving around in your Tesla making thousands upon thousands of dollars from your subscribers and your go fund me so that they can pay off all of your problems. Why couldn’t you sell your Tesla or cut out something that was unnecessary to pay your legal fees.???Your subscribers did not commit the crimes., So why should they have to pay for them for you? It’s because you’ve convinced them that you are their leader. The journalist reported on information that is publicly known about you and that’s not liable, or defamation. It’s the truth Phil...But instead of you taking financial responsibility you have everybody else doing that for you. You sent terrible messages to the woman that called you out.... just awful that you could say those things. You had an intimate conversation with some woman and then said oh I knew it was a set up. Why would you even engage in a conversation like that especially when your wife and children are just sitting on the next room. That’s what all predator say when they get caught “I knew it was a set up the whole time” LOL. All of those records still exist you cannot erase them. Even though you tried to doctor and delete your comments it was too late. Your subscribers talk about waking up to the truth.... but they’re so blind as to what’s happening right in front of them. You’re such an eloquent speaker, you’re captivating...all the above that makes you scream likability. Underneath you are a terrible person. I hope one day the world sees you for who you are....

I’ve been watching all your videos in a very hit or miss way and have so enjoyed them…this one, and your openness, touched me deeply. Had I been a viewer when your gofundme account was active I would have gladly donated and I’m truly thrilled to see if you needed a new crush now you could just buy it! I will get through all your posted videos sooner or later, most likely sooner as they are so addictive!

[@sheafamily3]

Everybody's family is its own brand of screwed up... I'm glad your mom was able to find happiness.

[@avantoa]

Bless you for sharing your story with the herd. I say, if you work hard and get pissed and shat upon while ya working, then you deserve all those lovely things, like your home, cars, and fancy tank tread crush. We are happy for you and your success. You bring us a bit of cheer when we come home from work as we watch you whilst we relax. I pray for you and your beautiful family, May you live a long, bonded and happy life. Well wishes from one of the herd.

[@kennethhorne7469]

“If you want something, you have to work very hard for it.” You are a genuine person who deserves all the success that is coming your way. Don’t ever second guess that. I don’t know why I watch your hoof trimming videos, but it’s something I enjoy. God bless your father and your family brother. Keep the content coming. I will keep smashing the like button and ringing the bell!!! Thank you for sharing.

[@5o5productions34]

im heartbroken that your nan could do that. congrats on it not getig you down you're a better man than most :)

[@jameslawson8193]

Thank you for sharing. Always appreciate your honesty and transparency

[@rebekahs6746]

I remember when you were just deciding to do the crowdfunding. Many of us really had to convince you to do it. Forget those nay sayers. We fans, "You Lot" as you referred to us once haha, know you're a humble father and husband trying to provide for your family. We're happy to help a fellow human in their journey! Best of luck and keep those videos coming!

[@carolnicholl3328]

Thanks Graeme for sharing with us all. You are such a really nice guy, and so hard working. You deserve all the very best life has to offer you.!

[@BrownCow1919]

Sir, you are patient, kind, sincere and wise! Keep on keepin' on! Stay positive and keep doing what you are doing!

[@conor7187]

I'm so sorry to hear about your dad. I don't even know what to say. When I hear stories like this, I just try to think about the positive outcomes. You've learned something about your grandmother, and this whole experience led you down the path to becoming a hoof trimmer rather than a farmer. There are SO many benefits to having not become a farmer. It's not a very profitable job and it's likely that your KZbin adventure wouldn't have come as far as it has. You also relieve the pain for so many cattle and I think that's why so many people love your videos and appreciate you for it. Also, often people don't realise how farms are such a burden. Not only is it a 24/7 job with some very low lows, but the inheritance issues are very common. Especially between family members. I know first hand a family who've been torn apart from a father who died of cancer unexpectedly. For anyone reading this who might be in a similar situation, or who suffer from depression, anxiety or the weight of life issues that sometimes bring you down.. things always get better, as they have for The Hoof GP. And to you, 'The Hoof GP', I've said it before and I'll say it again, you're a massive credit and inspiration to the farming community. For me personally, as someone who suffers pretty silently with a chronic illness, depression and anxiety, your videos help me every time you upload. Like a little break from the insanity within my own head. Thank you! Conor from Ireland.

[@TheHoofGP]

Wow thank Conor.

[@classicambo9781]

Hey Conor, hope you are doing well still 10 months down the track. Many farmers in my country, Australia, have mental health issues that they never talk about and it often ends badly. So glad you can speak about it here and hopefully have a solid support network in Ireland too. Wishing you all the best 🙂 Kate.

[@conor7187]

@@classicambo9781 ah, I'll be alright, thank you! The Hoof GPs predicament is just frustratingly relatable. He's talked about mental health in the past so I thought I'd share an experience of mine. The inheritance problem is a real issue, my friends family really were torn apart by it. So I can't reiterate it more how in a way, Greham (spellings probably a bit off lol) really is lucky to have bought his own land and done it by himself. Thanks for your message, I have family in Australia. The Irish and Australians seem to get along well. Except in rugby. We murder each other in rugby 😂✌️

[@Louie73083]

Super proud of you for not only making it; but remembering your father and your grandmother. We all have demons and moments of weakness. I am sure they loved you all immensely !! It’s just we are all different. It seems you have become an amazing dad and person. Thank you for sharing with us and making our days a little brighter !!!!!

[@stephenl9279]

Sorry about your dad ,family etc but as you say it happens to the best of us. Your doing fine. I myself are from the Dairy farm too ,I get you!really do.

[@Dutchy80]

Families are messy the best of times, but get worse when money is involved. Love ur channel. Of all the things I thought I'd see on YT, Hoof care wasn't one of them

[@rajbeekie7124]

Like hearing our story. You are a great ambassador for the cattle industry.

[@artm6723]

I’ve been watching your videos for a few years now. Always enjoyed them. To be honest I’m not even sure why. I live in Huntington Beach California. Not exactly cow country. You and Craig have shared so much of your lives that this has gone way beyond hoof trimming. So thank you for sharing so much of your lives. Craig your wedding was beautiful! Congratulations even though it is quite a bit late it is well meant! Gramm, not sure what to say except thank you, but it doesn’t seem to be enough.

[@joocy69]

Wow, thought you were one of lifes TRULY GOOD GUYS, I think you are even more so now. Your attitude is amazing. Your work ethic amazing. You have a bonnie wee family and you are living your best life despite the blow you were all dealt. Well done you.😊😊🐄🐂🐄🐂🐄🐂🐄🐂 P.S thanks for letting us in and sharing your story💚

[@davepelfrey3958]

I can't say anything that's not already been said. Except you are a good and humble man. The old saying goes what don't kill ya will make you stronger. You my friend are superman!

[@judieelliott4]

I would live to donate but circumstances say I can't. My mother was a MacGreger and I love that scottish part of me. Good luck and good health to you and yours.

[@coreyjunk4392]

I read an article that went into a little of your father’s last days. I’m sorry you went through so much and that he seems to have as well. The fact that you aren’t bitter about how that time in your lives unfolded is a testament to how you were raised and to your own growth as a person. Good on ya, mate!

[@mmanut]

You're a good man. How can a Grandmother leave her Grandchildren in such a situation. Shamed on her. I wish you and your family the very best, Good Bless You‼️🙏❤️. PS, Great Channel,. Vinny 🇺🇸

[@norabrown5584]

His Granny sounds just like my Granny.

[@godozo]

Money does things to people. Wonder how the Grandmother disbursed the money when she died (if she died - who knows?).

[@randallsmerna384]

I've been following you for a couple of years but for some reason I've never seen this video. Thank you so much for sharing so transparently. Thank you for being an example of how to move on despite devastating and life changing tragedies as well as dealing with "done-me-wrong" stories. You're probably never read this but for some weird reason I feel some kind of kindred, brotherly with you. Thanks Graeme!

[@TheHoofGP]

I read every comment 🙂

[@animeaunty]

Sweet sweet man, it's really not something for nothing...bcuz of youtube. U r sharing ur life with us & letting us watch u work n a good crush benefits us as well. U will feel like u r sharing the crush with all of us here n internet land, I promise. I'm very happy that u got over ur uncomfortableness about it. KZbin & other social media at ur level is work u do for us & we r paying u n ads & donation. Enjoy it! 😊 Also, thank u so much for sharing ur dad with us.

[@Lynnette22]

I’m just playing catch up and seeing how far you have come especially and how you have worked your ass off to get where you are, I believe your father would be very proud of you. I am so very sorry for your loss and I am sorry that your gran thought of herself instead of your dads family and how he worked his ass off to look after you all and your futures xx

[@Tigerturtl]

You’ve managed really well and seem to have put in the work to move past the pain that this caused. That’s not easy. You’re a kind, well adjusted person, and although that has got a lot to do with your mom, you also deserve just as much credit.

[@debbiechristiansen7130]

As the old saying goes, Bitterness is like drinking poison & expecting the other person to die from it. A joyful heart is the only way to go through life. I’m sure your joy and success has had the greatest effect, be it good or bad on your grandmother. May the Lord bless all you & your families ventures. That one pebble of joy tossed in the water of life can have a wonderful rippling effect. Sincerely, Debbie 😀

[@agadorisabel]

You obviously work incredibly hard. You work hard for your family and you work with the cattle to have a better life. Your skill and care are so apparent. I hope you get to the crowdfunding goal and your business goes from strength to strength. Also it’s wonderful that you have the strong connection with farming and that your kids can grow up with a lot of that too.

[@michaeljucius9509]

You're a good man. Being able to understand that if you want something you have to earn it is a huge thing. Dedication of your occupation to the comfort of animals on top of that impresses me too. The world needs more people like you.

[@flock_ness]

Thanks for sharing your story. I was studying at agricultural college towards the end of the BSE crises. There wasnt a week went by we didn't hear of at least two students who's fathers had taken their own lives because of losing everything to BSE. Depression in farmers is a serious issue that is only now being talked about. We need to talk more openly about it.

[@nelltaylor8171]

Goodness, what a story of how you rose from the ashes and became who you are today. I’ve so much respect for you, in what you’ve overcome and achieved. 👍

[@Little_Bird_Chihuahuas]

HUGS man! Please,please never ever take away someone else’s opportunity to bless someone else. That is what the go fund me is about...blessing someone else. And Many condolences for the passing of your father...no matter how old you are it is hard!

[@inspect2142]

Gave me a completely different and positive perspective on you and your success. Been watching your videos for several years on and off again, knowing a bit of your story now gives a texture and context that was previously missing. Thanks for your putting yourself out there like that. Would love to see videos showing one farm at a time, with some detail, would be fascinating to most of your viewers, maybe not even narrated but like the view through the eyes of a cow, a farm hand and a drone. An idea.

[@susanmarsh4351]

Oh Graeme....as the saying goes the truth is stranger than fiction and the truth will set you free. Still it is your truth and painful deep down. Tough times develop tough people to enjoy great success. Thank you for sharing. The convoluted inheritance structures with farms breaks many marriages and shatters families. You are one of the great success stories to come from tragedy and injustice.

[@heathermatthews8286]

The reason why people want to help you so much is bc you are such a hard worker!!

[@lin8148]

I am so sorry. I gave to you because you are a wonderful person. The same thing happened to me but we came out of it OK. You have too!!!

[@clausiusuf]

It’s not something for nothing... it’s a blessing for the people who choose to support the effort. People receive the joy of watching your videos and sharing a little bit of your life. I’m so sorry you lost your father at such a young age, that’s a crushing story, for anyone but it’s particularly hard for a boy. We need Dads to teach us things, to share our triumphs and failures with. Thank you for sharing and reminding us about our Dads, for those whose fathers are still around, share your life with him, reach out and tell him you love him. Your life will be better for it, I’m sure.

[@bigswoop5143]

Big respect for you, honest, hard working bloke that does what he loves! And great quality content, even my 4 month old boy seems to agree as hes watched many of your videos sat with me. keep up the good work. p.s sort of makes me want to try what you do, you make it sounds and look like an amazing job!

[@skinandmakeupbysusan]

Thank you for sharing your story. My boys and I love to watch your videos and follow you for a little while. I love that you love your job and you share your knowledge with the world. I love that you are such a positive person. I truly believe that everything happens for reason and it makes you who you are today and good for you for working so hard and not letting what happened to you make you a bitter person. It shows true character.

[@amandarobb2856]

This is proof that the one and only thing my ex husband said that is true, really is true "Don't be bitter; be better" You have a wonderful lease on life and such a healthy attitude. I wouldnt mind betting your mum was absolutely spot on in everything she taught you and your siblings. God bless her and you all. Greetings, thanks and praise from Ontario Canada 🇨🇦 ❤️

[@jolandavanopijnen4294]

mooi om jouw verhaal achter het succes te horen en hoe je omging met jouw familie tragedie. Wij hebben een soortgelijke tragedie meegemaakt en we kunnen veel leren van jouw houding en hoe je je leven weer hebt opgepakt door hard te werken. Ik kijk graag naar je filmpjes op KZbin en wens jou en je familie alle goeds toe. Liefs uit Holland.

[@Grant-vk6zo]

You are certainly rich ! You live in a beautiful place with a wonderful family of your own. You are reaching people all over the world and making our days brighter. There are extremely wealthy people in the world that are miserable. You can be waste deep in muck carving on a cows foot and smiling. I respect and appreciate every upload.

[@sparklepurple24]

Graham, you have an amazing outlook. Anyone else would be bitter. Your own grandmother took full advantage of that arrangement and left your mother to struggle alone with all of those children! I hope your grandma's will includes you and your siblings! I'm glad your mom married a hoof trimmer. I'm glad you took to it so naturally. And I'm extra glad that your KZbin channel has been blowing up! You deserve it. And, you deserve everything good in this world because of your positive outlook, hard work, and the forgiveness in your heart.

[@Dan_Kornfeld]

Graeme, that’s a strong bit of sharing. Your honesty and positivity are both remarkable and admirable, and I can’t say fairer than that. (I will say that there may be an amazing book to come out of this story. “Home To Hoof Trimming - My Life And Family On The Farm” Then turned into a movie starring Ewan McGregor!) Keep doing what you do!

[@chasehaertel]

That last picture of your father looks just like you. He would be really proud of you and your family. I think that same thing of my dad. How proud he would be no matter what he was being challenged with or was battling. Have a good day sir.

[@sdawnuhl]

Wow! This is my favorite of all your videos so far! Your story is so touching and could’ve turned out so differently had you let the difficult circumstances make you bitter instead of better. Your choice to let it go opened the door to a sweet life and you ARE rich! You have a beautiful family, a beautiful home and thousands of friends all over the world!!! Atta boy, Graeme! I contributed to the GoFundMe page and I’m so happy to see it growing! 💗

[@sumerfoster8485]

You are a permanent fixture in my heart now. Thank you for sharing your life. Much love from Kansas, USA

[@MissHezzy]

I can understand a little, my dad passed in 2002 at 59 and my mum was left with 4 children to raise with no money. We are all adults now and try to give back to her as a thank you

[@lisahirschlozano823]

Oh gosh, I'm so sorry. My family had a very similar thing happen, my great-grandfather dropped dead with four small children and a wife, and his brothers cut my grandfather and his siblings out of the family farm. They're the wealthy side of the family... we are just the ordinary Joes. ;) The work you are doing to help cows and advocate for their care is so meaningful. Thank you for sharing.

[@totorelochev8227]

Alot of respect for what u do, and to see u fulljoying it as Jamaican say, love your passion for the cows, blessings from Jamaica my brother.

[@juliefeasal8878]

Graeme your an amazing man for not growing up bitter and angry with your father or grandmother. Not many can find the will to learn from it and forge ahead and make for themselves a good life!

[@ElfyBean]

This was really personal and really beautiful; thank you for sharing this with us, your KZbin family. Your ability to take everything in stride, and find the positives in shitty situations (literal and metaphorical) is admirable and is a healthy perspective. Much respect. 💕

[@40CaL11746]

I tell all my friends about your channel. I’ve watched a couple other hoof trimmers channel and yours by far is the best. Genuine and inspirational!

[@HowDeeDo]

I so hate that your family went through much. I can't judge anyone's worth or whatever but we CAN judge their character by their actions. Unfortunately I've had some similar things with family and you're right, it DOES teach you more about what kind of person you want to be, what character you offer the world by your own actions. Good for you for not being bitter but better. Cheesy but true. I think the crowd funding is a great idea and wish I had the extra to donate. I CAN offer prayers for you and your family and support through watching every single video the moment I get the notification 😂 all the best to you!!

[@davidhinds7634]

Hey Dude , I have retired from the construction game and now working as a farm hand, so got onto your KZbin Channel, been watching for a few months now,, this video hit home with me as I have been fucked out of what should have been my inheritance many times, it makes me sick to my stomach how i feel about my family now. but we need to stay positive ,, I am very independant now

[@americanboy7040]

I am sorry to hear your story! Your story really broke me down!!! I hope you have a very blessed luck!!

[@666DW]

The hoof care of cattle does not resonate with most people and it wasn’t a trade or subject that has ever crossed my mind until I saw your KZbin videos. You come across a very humble and hard working guy who truly deserves all the success that comes your way! Keep up the good work😉

[@TheHoofGP]

Thank you.
