Paul Bernklau: Buying Cattle, A People Business


Listen Later

We would love to hear from you!

I’m joined by Paul Bernklau, a 91-year-old cattle buyer who spent decades traveling in Colorado, Wyoming, and Utah, consigning cattle and building relationships along the way. Paul grew up on a ranch near Rifle, Colorado, but when he was 19, his father became ill, and the family had to sell the ranch. Paul went on to work as a ranchhand before finding his life’s work in cattle buying — what he calls a people business, not a cattle business. Paul has been married to the love of his life, Carla, and has devoted himself to caring for her. Quick note: this interview was recorded by phone, so Paul is quieter than me at times, but his stories are worth a listen.

Cliff is the founder and co-owner of Rocky Mountain Financial Group in Denver, Colorado. He has 30 years of experience working with business owners regarding their estate and business planning.
