gently caress that. If I'm buying a shithole, it'll have a shithole price. E: house AND a church for $60k in Illinois. Hours from anywhere relevant. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...-DktgWSJp1Z6a-K CRUSTY MINGE has issued a correction as of 04:37 on Feb 27, 2021 |

Zeno-25 posted:Went to school in Peoria It's just so much goddamn cheaper there. Lots of small town houses no one wants, that were last updated in the 70s/80s when Silents were retiring from the farms. Perfectly livable, just hours from a job that isn't in nursing or trucking. Also water full of pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers, etc. I could coast on my veterans benefits and afford a different life back there, but it's not Colorado, and I'm not ready to leave here yet. Housing prices are definitely steering me out of state though.

And moving back east is the wrong direction

And if you're worried about Climate Change, the Great Lakes should fare better than most of the US. Operation: Cheap House could easily be a great idea in the long run. (Everyone everywhere will be affected. It's just a question of how soon and how hard.)

perhaps the answer doesn’t lie in individual escapism and planning for somewhere secure to ride things out but in solidarity with other people where you are now

I'll set up somewhere else and have something ready if people get tired of drought and fires. Otherwise, I'd rather join a community somewhere that isn't going to be a baked desert where houses cost a million on the low end.

BigPaddy posted:FIRE is not a new concept the problem is that it only works if you have income you can invest. Don’t take any vacations, drive old cars until they are uneconomic to fix, live in a rat hole, buy everything in bulk and never eat out... for decades.  guess who's 33 and lives with their mom? almost every cent I get from Unemployment goes into CEF DRIPs and occasional Bank Equities like $BK, $UBS, $SBT, $PBCT etc.
