It’s never enough for wealth hoarding addicts. With a little knowhow and elbow grease, someone can set themselves up for a comfortable life with a measly 50k and become self sustainable. He’s addicted to the lifestyle of the rich and the famous.
Man declared bankruptcy in 2003 even though he was making like 30 mil per fight by then. Man just had to have his tigers, bugattis and mansions lol
Teaching yourself horticulture, buying a plot of land, renting the equipment to clear your living space and dig to install a septic tank, and either building or buying a tiny home, is less complicated and expensive than it sounds and the returns are for life, and your descendents’.
Most people think it’s too hard to do, but this life is less difficult for me than modern city/suburb life. It’s more natural to what the human experience is supposed to be. Free of slavery/perpetual debt. And I used to work 12hr days of hard labour, yet still paycheck to paycheck, never advancing in life, deeply miserable.
Hunting, fishing, trapping, and foraging are easily taught invaluable skills that should be first-hand knowledge.
It really all depends on what a person truly wants out of their life.
Edit: bonus, you can always sell your goods at markets for extra cash if you need it.
Teaching yourself … buying a plot of land, renting the equipment … install a septic tank, … a tiny home, is less complicated and expensive than it sounds
Cool, got those numbers? Plus I want time investment required as well. You talk big, son.

With respect, I’m not going to argue with someone who doesn’t want that life, but the numbers are leagues higher to live depending on purchasing everything, especially superficial purchases, and most people can’t even afford a home within that system anymore, so they are forced to find other means of survival at this point.
You do you, so long as you’re happy!
I must add that focusing your energy towards working for yourself is infinitely rewarding. All that time spent is time I enjoy.
All you have to do is have enough cash to not work while you learn to do all that labor including building codes designed to keep you from killing yourself. Every time I hear somebody advocate for off grid or tiny living, it sounds like a total grift based off the American fantasy of self sufficiency.
Every time I hear someone advocating against self-sufficiency and dependency on a fascist system, the alarm bells go off.
It seems alien to most because we are indoctrinated to fear individualism and anything that deviates from the status quo, and take “comfort” in the deeply corrupt system we are all forced to participate in.
Like I said in another comment, at this point people are forced to do this purely out of survival, because living within the system is just not possible anymore. It’s much easier to understand and empathize if you’ve experienced poverty and discrimination.

That’s why I also suggested purchasing pre-fab. Hell, you could buy a trailer or even a shipping container, or whatever is within your means.
Change is hard for the average person, and most will resist it.
The US jerks itself off with bootstraps and stories of self made millionaires.
You mean trust-fund babies who started off with a “small” loan? Stories are just that. I don’t know why you think that adds any weight to your point or how it affects mine…

Are you serious? The US jerks itself off with bootstraps and stories of self made millionaires.
Well, I think I know how seriously to take you.
You mean trust-fund babies who started off with a “small” loan? Stories are just that. I don’t know why you think that adds any weight to your point or how it affects mine…
Do your thing, dude. Whatever makes you happy.
