building a simple one-room cabin is super easy, if you can follow simple directions and watch 2 hours worth of instructional videos on youtube you can do it.

I feel confident that anyone who is competent to operate a motor vehicle has the mental capacity and physical capability to build a simple one room cabin out of 2x4s and plywood.

they may need another person to help with the roof tho if they live somewhere that it snows and you cant have a flat roof.

everyone in this thread so far is talking about buying their first home somewhere cheap because where they have to spend most of their time is too expensive.

So to answer your question, somewhere between 0 and 1.

have to? there are other places on this gay earth than california and no one is making you come into daily standup at the HENRY factory anymore.

If you want snow, then Buffalo area / Adirondacks area in upstate NY is what you want if you don't want to go full nutso and go to Anchorage

the only problem is the cheapest real estate is out in the boonies (not near any lakes, richie riches buy lake houses) where you can come home to a bunch of redneck chud hunters lounging on your couch and Lay-Z-Boy who will either shoot you immediately on entering or apologize with 'we didnt think anyone was using this house so we broke in'

We visited the Adirondacks for a weekend trip last spring, up near the Canadian border. It was loving wonderful. Cheap as hell too.

Fair warning: We are getting a child out of that trip, so tread lightly up there.

wanna reiterate that Adirondacks is super chudsy and if you move there your neighbors will be super ex-military chuds on disability who think a good ol' time is plinking cans with their poo poo 22s with your house in the firing radius / downrange

We visited Potsdam, which is a tiny college town, and as a result pleasantly more progressive than we anticipated.

Lots of chuddy poo poo in the surrounding area, but it only took a weekend for us to put it on our candidate list for places to retire to someday.
