RE: Off-grid living demands balanced energy management

in #ungrip7 years ago (edited)

I know jealousy is an awful human characteristic but Man am I jealous of your living arrangements!

I would love to find myself in a similar situation in the years to come. To have a home that utilizes nature to be extremely efficient. From water collection to heating and cooling. To have solar power, and like you mentioned in previous posts - to really only need, what, under 2k of fiat money to get by a whole year? Thats awesome. To be self sustaining in food, shelter and water... you have nearly done it all completely!

Impressive, and a life I seek to bear similar to my own. As always, @wwf, I appreciate the knowledge and experience you share.

Edit: I say jealous, because I know if SHTF here, at this current time, most likely wouldn't be a happy ending here. Keep fighting the good fight!

Actually our current fiat requirements is about $750CDN a month or $9000 a year. But if the SHTF, we could do it now with zero! It took 10 years of work, mistakes, fixing those mistakes, trial , error and lots of testing, reading and doing. It is my hope that by sharing our journey, people can do what we did in 2 years instead. I pray that steem takes off so that you can fund your own project then you can work on that jealousy issue you got going there. hahahaha
