Ok, so in another thread Got Smart challenged me to read this thread all the way through. Only got to page 12 before I skipped to the end, because I can. I don't know if I need a badge, but a sticker would be nice.
I've been self employed over half my adult life, but never made any real money because I'd rather work at what I want than what pays.
I own a 3200 square foot house that's almost paid for, but would really rather live in my 6x12 cargo trailer and do spend 30 or 40 nights a year in it.
My 25 year old son has figured out how to make a living working part time and travelling the world, is finishing up New Zealand soon after traveling the length on a motorcycle. Next up Australia. I'm not worried that he's not settling down, actually a little jealous.
My 23 year old son just graduated college and when asked what he wants to do he says " play outside" . Is finishing a seasonal job with Wyoming Game and Fish where he spent the entire summer outdoors and got paid for it. Now he plans to take some time off and hunt to his hearts delight from September through January and he's totally self supporting. Good kid.
I hope to retire in a couple years with very little, but find that more appealing than to work another 15 or so just to have a wad of cash in the bank.
So do I qualify?
