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

Right? I wonder if this involves living in a van, down by the river.

Depends what you want out of life.

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.

Cool, got those numbers? Plus I want time investment required as well. You talk big, son.

I don’t think you can even buy a tiny home for $50k these days, let alone a big enough plot of land to support all of these activities, and also pay for the equipment to get the land ready.

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.
