I have been very poor, homeless, middle class and everything in between. As long as you can get a job (and here, you can always get a job of some sort) all things are possible as long as you can stuff enough wage earners into your household.
I like roller coasters and Busch Gardens usually does a buy one ticket, come back all year thing, there’s a bus that comes from near me to near there. So that’s some cheap fun (I don’t buy anything there, don’t stay all day, go early, ride, leave before big crowds)
Have gotten pretty good at gardening so if there’s a yard there is some fresh food.
Lots of roommates, built in network.
Library books. Free concerts downtown. Whatever free events.
I hope people will stop consumering. I hope they will start filling up green spaces again. Go for walks, talk to the people thy run into. Hopefully kids will go run around outside again.
Enjoying the life we have is a luxury most people in history never got and it was anomalous that we got to witness the end of that era at all.
Now it is time to buckle up for the reversion.
Get good at things.
The vast majority of our economy is an economy of convenience, taking money in exchange for doing the little things we don’t want to. The thing is, most of us have never stopped to check if we actually don’t want to do those things. Meanwhile, all the benefits of doing those things are being reaped for profits by assholes.
Get out there and get good at something, then find other people that are good at things, and help each other out.
Scientific Socialism, thats how.
Pinball, but I’m to broke to afford a real table so pinball fx it is. Sometimes fishing. And as much sex with wife I can
I’m saving a little but also just buying what I want if I can. Not worth hoarding money thats going to be worthless in a few years.
Survive…idk. Being a prepper hoarder isnt worth the stress. I’ll just be a nomad and eat trash if it comes to that
How does one afford a nomadic lifestyle? Especially without transportation?
