In every live category - in riding, career or in social life. Defining success, being 'rich' or financially stable is one of key components. Equestrian sport is by definition a luxury, and requires from a rider, who is very often a horse owner, strong financial skills as much as strong riding skills.Economic downturn http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/LianaAntanovichDressage/~3/PuTXovHVAlU/training-successfull-people.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Liana Antanovich)1<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/LianaAntanovichDressage/~4/PuTXovHVAlU" height="1" width="1"/>http://liana-antanovich-dressage.blogspot.com/2008/12/training-successfull-people.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3732667679253385463.post-4575637159694767731Sun, 21 Dec 2008 21:44:00 +00002008-12-25T13:47:47.897-08:00equestrian marketplace - dressageEquestrian Marketplace in 2008Fellow equestrian asked me if I can help sell him a top-level imported 6 y.o. warmblood, based in California, USA. Here is my view on this from dressage in Washington state experience.Historically, the equestrian money are in California. Also, there are much more money in jumping business, than in dressage. So, if there are jumping people from California looking at him now, that is the best bet http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/LianaAntanovichDressage/~3/stVHRBWBOf8/equestrian-marketplace-in-2008.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Liana Antanovich)0<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/LianaAntanovichDressage/~4/stVHRBWBOf8" height="1" width="1"/>http://liana-antanovich-dressage.blogspot.com/2008/12/equestrian-marketplace-in-2008.html
