Hard to say, but judging from pulling vehicles and haulers I’d say the Boyd’s or Sheltons I’m sure there are others in the same range but those come to mind. |

Like to know

When. I posted the question on the other post I was thinking the Boyd's. But there are so many that look like they are rolling in doe. |

Earl Wells would be my guess, the Sheltons an Boyds also, the Bootlegger pulling team aint hurting either. |

talking about a mans wealth is like asking about the size of his you know what |
|
Re: What puller or pulling family is the wealthiest

Doubt it
|
Definitely not! If they had money they would've paid their bills. They might be the most bankrupt family right now. |

Google the family tree and you will take back your statement Doubter... Some of you just take what you see on the surface and take it as gospel. |

Earl Wells, Vaughn Bauer, Mike Conney, Steve Hunt. |

Larry Roberts payroll was $1,000,000 a day (365 days a year) over 15 years ago. So I would say he's pretty close to the top .Not sure how I would hadle being told I need 7 million by Friday for payroll, every week??ll!!! lol |

Tough question! Most people get wealthy by making wise investments and not spending money. Tractor pulling doesn't fit either of that criteria. So it's possible that the wealthiest tractor puller may be pulling an out of field tractor on a flatbed semi-trailer. It may come down to who owns the most land? |

Re: What puller or pulling family is the wealthiest

Not much but enough
|
Sometimes it aint always whos got the most or how big--- you just got to know how to use what you got !!! Just Sayn !!! |
|
Re: What puller or pulling family is the wealthiest

Don’t know the answer to your question, but I am confident I am not in the top 5,000. |

Most of the local GN pullers around here have been bankrupt. Pulling vehicles are a terrible investment. This post is pretty much terrible also. |

Banker

So how many can't afford to pull but do it with the help from a bank or two?? |
|
Re: What puller or pulling family is the wealthiest
|
I thought
|
If you are truly a banker I have a question for you, And that is this. Did you loan any money to a puller that can't afford to pull? |

Don’t think you would ever be able to guess. I know a pulling family that you would think had nothing, but actually have ~$100 million worth of property.
Fun to speculate though. Would guess the Hunts are atop the list. Past puller would be Larry Roberts I’d think. |

Boyd’s actually have a deal with Lucas oil(20 years for $120M)! |
|
Re: What puller or pulling family is the wealthiest
|
It’s hard to say who is atop this list but I would say Larry Roberts was, close, or would still be in the conversation today if he was still pulling. My list in no particular order would be
Conny Hunt Bauer Boyd Savonevic Wells Chizek Shelton Purser Simon Their is a guy that won the pro stock ring at bowling green in 2012 from Ohio named Steve ortner that would be in this discussion but has never really pulled nationally |
|
Re: What puller or pulling family is the wealthiest

Earl Well, Mike Connely, Baur,Savonevic, Larry Phillips,Shelton,Boyds. |

Many families have a lot of "old money" from way back, others that flaunt it don't have what the sly ones have , no one knows anyone's net worth by looking at them or their actions |

Interesting topic
|
Rumor has it( not certain so take this with a grain of salt) that GALOT sold his concrete business for “well over 250 million” so I have a feeling he is definitely in the top 5 |

If we are talking money-wise, I would say Boyd's, Shelton, and simons. Pulling-wise, I would say petros. Lots of pulling vehicles for one family comes to mind when I think of boyds, sheltons, petros. Vern Zerby, Martins, simons, GALOT, Chizek, and especially Gaeton Yelle. |

Nope, he's not a puller. We want to know who the wealthiest PULLER OR PULLING FAMILY IS!! He might be in the pulling business, but he's never pulled. |

Always remember that most so called wealthy people are in debt more than they have
The wealthiest man owes no one he has his health and has a good family and most of all has eternal salvation I have a truck payment that can go away in a heartbeat and that’s it I feel pretty wealthy and have very little money! |

Bailey, very good, - more should think like you do, we all have much wealth, just depends on how you look at it, from what perspective and angle, health and ability to work, play, Live, enjoy is more than just money in the bank or bottom line concerns, and after all is said and done, the casket is not a money drop box.I have paid a lot for poor food, a not so top of the line vacation, but have had priceless bonfires, motorcycle rides, laughs with friends, sunset and rises, church experiences, sons being born, even some darned great wonderful tractor pulling experiences, and my other hobbies have paid huge dividends in gratifications never even thought of until the accomplishments were made, farmed successfully for yrs, til I could not afford that luxury any longer,LOL. Most likely wealth is not the biggest brightest hauler and pit vehicle, and several pullers, lined up, but a thought process and journey with freedom and peace to enjoy the little things, giving a helping hand, a simple thank you and a tight warm hug to a loved one makes wealth seem very simple and attainable to more than they might realize.Happy Holidays, and remember where the starting line is, --- in self pride, ethics and personal growth, we were Given Life and opportunities, use them wisely. |

I've seen Jerry and Connie Mullenix light 1000 dollar cuban cigars with 100 dollar bills. While eating lobster at a pull |
|
Re: What puller or pulling family is the wealthiest
|
Wonder how
|
I wonder how they got the 100 dollar bills to catch fire to start with? Why not use the lighter or fire before them to light the cigar? Sounds like a tall tale to me. Maybe the 100 dollar bills make the cigar taste better. Probably the cigar was made of 10- 100 dollar bills? If this is true. That is a classic case of someone having money to burn! Not to mention very poor stewardship. Especially when we have people in dire need in this country who could use some help. |

Just someone thats been there

To me wealth is not having cabuttles of money, #1 if you dont have the Lord an Savior nothing matters period ( its all about him ) material things are irrelevant- its all his money anyways !!! # 2 if youve got your health and your family is healthy YOUR RICH !!! As long as youve got food an clothing and are able to work and if your lucky enough to get to do a few things extra YOUR RICH --- BIG MONEY aint everything , usually comes with alot of headaches an stress !!! Been there i know this !!! Live to Serve the Lord an watch, he'll put more blessings on you than you know what to do with !!!! |

You and Bbailey are right on!! I know people who put money ahead of everything, Including God, as well as their own family and friends. For the most part they were very lonely after they found out their fake friends left them after they found out they weren't going to get their money, and their families wanted nothing to do with them because of the way they had been treated. When you leave out of this world, everything that you possess here on earth will remain behind, regardless of your destination. Only one of 2 places to spend eternity one is very very hot, and the other cannot be bought with all the wealth in the world, it is already bought and paid for by the Blood of Jesus Christ, all you have to do is surrender your heart and life to Him, and ask Him for forgiveness and welcome the one who shed His Precious Blood on the Cross into your heart. He paid it All!!! He's coming soon!! Keep watch!! |
