"Living on twenty acres sounds great until you realize you'd like TVs, internet, toilet paper, a car, and education for your kids. Turns out those things cost money because there's only so much of them - how are you gonna make an income living in the middle of nowhere to pay people to send it all your way?"

With a remote tech job, like I've been doing for over a decade while living on a rural four acre lot. I started with crappy satellite internet and now have decent satellite internet. And also toilet paper, etc.

I love it out here and can hardly imagine wanting to live in a city anymore.
