Farm manager

In 2006, 22-year-old Nathan Bluett was manager of a Waikato dairy farm. He worked from 5:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. daily, with one weekend off a month. Bluett received a $50,000 salary and 20% of profits, as he had a partial investment in the business. His aim was to own his own farm within three years.
