I have this dream. I want to live on a homestead without spending money. Yes, you read right, after the initial investment, I don't want to have to spend A PENNY. I don't even want to look at the stuff. This brought me to a realization, though. In order to live in a cashless society with a barter-based economy, I would need to invest money. A lot of money. Thousands of dollars. Much more than I could ever earn on my current salary. I just can't sock any away in this money-based society. I can't afford to. So I'll have to wait. I spend my days doing research, my nights dreaming. I know I'll need a lot of supplies, but I am ahead in one way. I already have a place to stay once we find a place to put it. I have a camper. I've been learning many things about wilderness living and will be sharing them here in the weeks and months ahead. Will you follow me here on my journey? Only time will tell!
