Seen tons of videos how peeps can't make it even though they are making more than what I used to make 20 years ago... Many are living in cars to save up for an apartment, I don't see the sense in this as rent & utilities are just going to go UP, they never go DOWN...
The old phrase 'A penny saved is a penny earned' is the best MO... We live on less than 10 grand a year & yes we gotta budget but we do just fine... First our property we paid in cash & taxes are real cheap & since we are both over 65 we get tax credit so that more than covers it so we have NO taxes to pay thus no rent at all... We are in a very economically depressed area so they don't 'push' peeps around here... There's no building restrictions whatsoever... There's a cabin just 1,200 feet down the road That has had an outhouse right next to the road... Nobody cares... This is the kind of area you NEED to look at... We don't care about the others in the area we don't mix with them, too 'slope-ish'...
Wife handles the finances & I fix, hack or modify everything... Never is a 'professional' called up for anything... I fix the cars/trucks/weedeaters/chainsaws & much more as I HAVE TO even though at my age it's not fun anymore...
This is a problem with younger peeps, they don't wanna do hard labor... I have burned up an estimated 1,600 weedeater gas tanks since living here going on 21 years usually about 80 tanks a year... Was just out this morning but could only do 1 tank as yellowjackets were attacking... This is the other side of such living, the creatures...
A 15-20 miles down the road there's CCL land where they sell small lots one can buy for like 200 bucks a month... Boy they make it look good online but most chunks are difficult to get to even with 4WD, plus no water, electric makes quite miserable in short order plus peeps can't handle the insects & snakes... There was a couple that had a plot right off the road & I thought they were gonna make it but No... They actually split up & went there own ways after about a year... Others gravel up a driveway & put up a gate with no trespassing signs & that's commonly all you see... Lots are commonly 'given up' then resold to another 'dreamer' I am telling you it's the best legal scam there is...
So if you are willing to work 'for yourself' until you die you can live pretty cheaply... Nobody tells me what to do except for the upcoming weather & my pets... Be the 'Grinch' nobody wants to approach so other stay away, Don't live 'right on the road' on near a creek or waterway... Wife & I are elevated with steep driveway & trees are thick which also block microwaves...
They are going to make 'Van Lifers' lives more difficult so living in cars, RVs, vans is going to be made more 'illegal'... If peeps would just learn that 'traveling' on roads is a common law right it would greatly help... You don't need a 'driver's license' to 'travel'... A drivers license is only needed if you are engaged in commerce... Also you don't need a 'registered vehicle' you can travel around in anything with no plates, You remember Steve Jobs doing this? He knew about common law... There are no 'corporate laws' they are just 'policy' which is 15th century French derived for 'police'... Thus 'officer' a person of the office... there were tons of automobiles traveling around before driver's licenses were invoked, these rights are still present...
