This article really made me consider only doing things that are pleasurable and doing the bare minimum of things I don’t like to live.
But like you said, it is getting harder to do so, because people continue to materialistic. Owning a Boxabl cost less than most homes and are just as safe but we still buy into the idea of needing a really big house. Long as you own the land (which is cheaper) you can learn how to build your own house.
To conclude there is always a way out but it require an end to giving into the ideas of the masses. A little creativity goes a long ways an based off this article, you definitely have it.
