How much does it cost to own a horse? Jan 2025 Equestrian Money Diaries | Riding With Rhi

[@Scwibbles]

Love that you've collected this data, my main takeaway is horses are costing more and more as the years go by 😅

[@RidingWithRhi]

😂 sadly I think you might be onto something there.

@RidingWithRhi 😭🤣🤣

Super interesting - I don’t have horses anymore, with family and buying a house and time it was just too much but I still love watching your videos ❤

[@sew_horsey_helen]

I bought my first horse two months ago and this is so interesting. I’m paying less than most for some things, but others are surprisingly pricey. I must do a submission of my own.

[@RidingWithRhi]

Congratulations on your horse! And thank you for sharing your perspective, it’s amazing how much it varies right

[@sew_horsey_helen]

@ Thank you! The variation is really surprising. I’d love to know if you end up with enough data to break it down geographically.

[@RidingWithRhi]

Me too! Hoping we get enough 🤞🏻

Interesting video, thanks a lot for analysing everything ❤

[@RidingWithRhi]

I'm glad to hear it was useful! Thanks for watching.

It’s probably show the same price as 2024 but it will get more expensive as livery yards will announce increase in January or in the next few months. Where I keep my horses everything is going to get a lot expensive or has announced to get more expensive in the next few months.

[@RidingWithRhi]

Yes - i'm super interested to see what the February numbers bring. A quick look at the spreadsheet today says that some of the bedding costs have increased in 2025.

this was super interesting as someone who just bought a horse and has it stabled at the yard i actually work at

[@RidingWithRhi]

Thank you, I’m glad you found it useful ❤️

[@Isathecrazyhorsegirly]

I really want a horse

[@Isathecrazyhorsegirly]

I am tempted to submit my own data but think it would skew the results. I have a retired Highland Pony on two types of medication and is fed and cared for me. My younger horse is on a never ending holiday.

[@RidingWithRhi]

Honestly, submit it, your experience is your experience, there’s no skewing facts!

[@mazfb9240]

Very interesting even though I don't own/loan.

[@gatosandwichera]

I don’t either but I love watching this to calculate if this will ever make sense for my finances😂 it doesn’t look like it so far, but I ride school horses and that keeps me happy enough for now

... Ohne KI wäre natürlicher

[@RidingWithRhi]

I’m not sure if it translated correctly, but there is no AI in this video 🥰

[@jassyandponies]

My first own horse arrives tomorrow & your older videos and Equestrian Money Diaries have helped me feel confident in my decision to purchase my own. I can't wait to submit my questionnaire after being in the 'Rides at a riding school' and 'Loan' categories for the last few years! Thankyou for the best RHIsources 😌🤍

[@RidingWithRhi]

OMG ... Rhisources! 😂 Fabulous. Thanks for the lovely comment and congratulations on the arrival of your new horse! What an exciting day - enjoy it.
