I don't consider school to be necessary at all, but detrimental in all regards. And I will not be thankful for mindless consumerism, as it only perpetuates mass slavery world-wide. Be it either through debt slavery or other forms. Sure, we all consume things, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't...

I can attest to solar encouraging conservation of energy, as I've got two 100w panels on my roof (though they are renogy, so we'll have to wait and see if their cut corners affect their lifespan), and I use significantly less power now than I did in a house. I'm a lot more aware of small things...

Excuse me if I'm posting this in the wrong section. I put it in electrical because that's where the solar power threads are. Just recently watched this presentation, called "Green Illusion", and figured I'd bring it here for some more insight from the solar exports in the van-dwelling...

From what I understand (may be limited), wooffing isn't paid work. And the knowledge they teach you can be just as easily learned from books, the internet, and from working at organic farms not associated with wooffing (so they actually pay you for the energy you expel). I'm interested in...

Another book you may be interested in reading is Getting Things Done by David Allen. Just re-read it in the past few days and my head feels a hundred times lighter. I use the GTD method coupled with TheBrain software, which is extremely useful for storing data, tracking information, and seeing...

I left Michigan just as the storm was starting to hit. Called my parents the day I arrived in SC to hear that there was already six inches of snow with ten more on the way! It's 50+ degrees F here in Mt. Pleasant, SC at the moment. But from what I gathered from the almanac, this is just a brief...

I pulled the trigger and purchased this 1987 dodge ram 250 RoadTrek (versatile edition). It seems to run and drive great (I'm not learned in the field of mechanics, yet), has close-to-new tires, two spares that look new, needs the AC charged and the regulator for the propane replaced. Bought...

@blkjak thanks for the welcoming words :) I'm headed in that direction at some point to look for a place to eventually buy land so I can plant a food forest. Low maintenance is what I aim to achieve with the food forest. That way I can still travel freely and not have to worry about how my...

I've long ago came to the conclusion that the rat race is not the way to live. I am not willing to be a debt/wage slave just because some people sitting in a regular old building called the white house have decided I must use their currency, pay their taxes, sign their social contracts...

Hey everyone, I have some questions for for those of you making money through coding / web-design / web-admin: What do you do? (programming, web design, web-admin, etc) How do you do it? (what does the job entail, and how difficult is it to find work in your field?) I have a good...

South-east Michigan, about an hour from lake michigan. My parents own a few acres of woods in a rural town, just on the edge of the urban sprawl. It's nice, and I don't really wish to give up my job (medical mmj caregiver), but my mom has asked for me to move out by next spring, so I am now...

Hello van dwellers and rv dwellers alike, or anyone else with that adventurous spirit echoing freedoms call! My name is Tony. 24 years old and looking for a change of lifestyle. Currently I live with my parents, have little to zero debt, have a car I can trade for a van, and have a steady income...
