This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I'm working towards just this, not a tent necessarily but a very small house/shack, gonna get some dogs and chickens and probably work at a local grocery or do art until I die.

I am not making much progress. I wonder who tf is buying houses.

Nice, good luck! My uncle lives in a tiny home out in the boonies, and seems to enjoy it. He grows beans and sells fridge magnets on Etsy.

You could buy a place like this in full, with some solar panels, a bed, and mini-fridge after two years and some change working minimum wage. It's not glamorous at all but it's a chill af way to live life away from all the stress.

I know it's a rhetorical question, but 50% of millennials own a home in the US, mostly in small rural areas and suburbs.

Both capitalists and tankies want you to believe that you have to work until you die, but it's just not true. Don't give in to the doomers!
