Saltin posted:I'm not advocating for it, since I am successful and happy within the current system but it is an option for those who are directing vitriol in this thread toward "people with money". There is nothing inherently wrong with having money. If you're unhappy about the system that allows people who aren't you to get ahead, do something about it. That might include socialist revolution, it might include making better life choices. I don't know, since I don't know what anyone else's deal is. I'm sure there are a lot of people who feel jealous of the rich because they want what people with money have, but I'm certain there are also a lot of people that hate the rich because people with money often arrogantly assume they're in some way better (or ultimately anything other than luckier) than people who don't have money.

Baronjutter posted:I don't care how cheap the land is, I'm not sure I could totally give up civilization and live like a cave man plus really any sort of income other than selling bark or what ever you'd do with that land. Log it? I've been planning to bugger off to 2 or 3 acres up north for several years now and live there in a micro home made out of trailerable sections with a few solar panels and LED lights and so on, so I don't think it necessarily means you have to live like a caveman. Hell, now that there's a whole industry of stuff aimed at those nutty doomsday preppers it's easier than ever to take civilization with you. If you can't really can't figure out what to grow on an isolated acreage up north in Canada though then I don't know what to tell you.

Rime posted:For a thread that rigorously mocks people who follow the norm, you people sure do love to poo poo on anyone who dares to buck society too radically. I wouldn't pay out the rear end to live in a glorified trailer park any more than I'd buy a house in the suburbs but I'm pretty much planning to live in a much smaller space because it's easier and cheaper to heat, cool and build (plus I like cozy spaces) so I don't think tiny houses are such a crazy idea.

Baronjutter posted:I felt like such a bougie yuppie piece of poo poo for doing our whole place up in mostly mid-century poo poo. Lot of teak and solid wood, quality items that have lasted for 50 years and will last for another 50 no problem. One chair we fell in love with was $300, a fancy writing desk with the roll-up top for about $600. Our sofa was almost a grand. I'd sit there wracked with guilt, dizzy at our wasteful extravagance. Then I'd walk into a "cheap" furniture store and see that anything new are around those prices, but absolute garbage that looks like poo poo and the laminate will peel off the lovely MDF in a few years. Then I'd go online and look up some of the pieces we bought and see ones in worse condition selling for double the price. I have furniture made out of milk crates. It serves me.

Don't smoke indoors, it's gross because it makes everything smell like poo poo especially when it's blown through the loving vents by the A/C or heat If you smoke please just go outside, you have no idea how horrible this poo poo is to deal with if your nose isn't used to the stink. Seriously, it gets into your hair and clothes if it's dense enough.

The 9,200-square-foot house located in Priddis, 40 minutes southwest of Calgary, was listed for $3.9 million but purchased at auction for just over $1.7 million. Another luxury property down the street had a similar fate — the $2.9-million mansion was picked up at a 62 per cent discount.

Baronjutter posted:That's the really sad thing, we're not really good at anything. We don't have any actual major competitive industries or products of note. We dig holes and cut down trees. We're apparently too stupid to be trusted to even distribute our own loving grain. We can't build ferries anymore and if Vancouver is any measure we don't even know how to build roofs. So we sit around trading houses with each other. Canadians are best utilized as the binding ingredient in a highly viscous protein slurry fed to imported wage slaves
