My plan to live as cheaply and comfortably as possible.

This is my goal in life, I simply don't want to work for a living. When you think about it, life is just WAY too fucking short to spend most of your time slaving at a job. There are so few things I want in life but just the necessary things like food and shelter that require money, and just that requires me to bust my ass for 40 hours a week while my life slowly drains away? Fuck. That.

A common saying is "time is money", I think of it the other way around, "money is time". Time is your most valuable thing, it's very limited and once it's gone you are done with life. My plan involves reducing the need for money in order to maximize the time I have to do other things with my life.

First, I have to buy a house. The cheaper the better. As long as I can pay for the costs of moving and cover the mortgage for a few months, I'm good. I will continue to live cheaply here only consuming enough food to stay healthy, paying for basic cable and internet and electricity.

Then, I'll offer to rent the house out to as many other people as I can at a cheap rate. As many people as can fit in the bedrooms. I'd provide sleeping mats instead of beds to accommodate more people. Since housing is such an issue in most places, I don't think it'd be a problem to find people willing to put up with sharing a house full of 6-8 people or so. With enough people living there, it should completely cover my monthly mortage, taxes, utilities and other costs.

>> No.3918858

In the mean time, I'd still work in order to save up money because this situation probably won't last forever, and I'd store as much money as possible away into a tax-free savings account. I'd soon move up to only working part time rather than full time and spend more time enjoying life. Eventually, my tenants will pay off my mortage and I'll have enough yearly interest coming in from my savings that I can easily live off that and not have to work at all.

What does /jp/ think of my plan? I suppose some of you are perfectly happy with your jobs and will try to convince me that living without a job is the worst way to live possible. Think about it though, do you have other things you'd rather be doing than going to work? Can you predict when you'll be able to do all of those things? if you are working a full time job, chances are you can't.

Learn to cook and try to get raw ingredients wholesale. A friend who runs a business can come in handy there. Gardening is a good hobby to have if you want to save on food.
Choose where you live carefully. You'll want a place with low property tax. You might want to hold off longer if you're in the US since it looks like there could be a second crash. There are a lot of vacant houses that aren't on the market. Don't know the situation elsewhere.

I like the plan trust me i once considered doing that as well...Unfortunately i have learned that it is impossible to live as you describe espically they way finical status of the world is in. Secondly you will not make enough money at a single job to pay for a mortgage. I doubt you will get 6-8 people to move in with you and even if you do it will be difficult to keep all those personality and agendas living peacefully together...trust me i know from personal experience.
Also having many people in a small area (2-3 people in a bedroom) can be difficult. Also buying a house is extremely expensive. The cheapest houses here in the States are Cape house with only one bedroom, one bath small kitchen/livingroom for $120,000 USD add good home owners insurance for $500 a month plus $100 electricity bill, and if you are in the nothern part of the country where it is colder you need another $100 for heat, money for food. patience to deal with sometimes unruly tenants. And health Care depending again where you live that may or may not be a huge factor(Here in the U.S. it's huge). It's a wonderful dream to have, i once had a similar dream but once i started looking into i learned from living in a College dorm that it is near impossible to be able to do what you describe for a long period of time. And yes i would love to be doing other things besides slaving myself to a 50 hour work week, but then i woke up and relazed that this is impossible, even with a college degree finding a job that pays well is a challenge in and of itself. Personally if you are debt free keep it that way. and work and put as much money you can into a Roth IRA, CD(Certified Deposits). so that if you are lucky you can retire comfortably and not relay solely on the government for your retirement. Here is what i would suggest either start your own business doing something you love, or become a landlord after you have saved some money and done your homework on being a landlord.

In rural areas, like where I am now, homes go for around $70,000 at the very cheapest (but those are old and shitty). You could probably buy a decent fixer-upper for $90k and let it for two people per bedroom at best.

Forget sleeping bags. The people who are that desperate won't have enough money for you to turn any profit. And you have to make a profit greater than what you're putting into mortgage/utilities/maintenance, or you'll be the one on the street looking for a cheap sleeping bag before too long. Needless to say, there will be plenty of ass-busting on your part to pull this off.

You don't need to report any income if you earn less than $10,000. But it would be best to work in a job that pays little because then you can get tax refunds to benefit low income indivduals AND homeowners.

And always go with CD's and Checking account. Currently banks up here in NY are only giving a .25% interest on there CD's and even less on their savings account.

Also, it would be a good idea to get a credit card that gives you cash back for use.

>Eventually, my tenants will pay off my mortage
This is impossible, rental income is ALWAYS lower than risk free interest rate, regardless of how many people you rent to. This is because housing prices always go up in the long run (since, as the saying goes, they're not making any more lands). Because real estates are likely to appreciate in price, people will always invest into real state of rent is equal to risk free rate, since then any appreciation in price is all yous to keep.

But that's just the thing, if rent can eventually pay off interest and mortage, no one will rent, everyone will want to buy houses, rent out and keep the house X years down the track. So this is an impossibility. The very fact that people rent means it's cheaper to rent to pay the interest on the same house.

Wrong, when you agree to a mortgage with your bank, the mortgage premium stays the same unless you have a non-fixed rate mortgage which is stupid (but doesn't need as large of a down-payment), or you refinance/remortgage your house to take out an equity loan. Once you have your house paid off, or if the equity available on your house is enough to pay off the remainder of your mortgage, you can get a reverse-mortgage where you sell your house back to the bank and they send you a monthly check. This is how a lot people help subsidize their retirement.

The value of your house goes up as the local/regional property values go up, and you can use that as leverage to get an equity loan.

The reason not everyone is able to buy a house and get a mortgage is because you need to come up with the down-payment. Typically between 10% and 20%. For a lot of people on lower incomes, it's hard to save up the $25,000-$80,000+ in cash needed. You also need to have a good credit rating, and people with fucked up credit scores have a more difficult time getting a mortgage.

wrong, most company rather rent their equipment than buying it. the same logic apply to house renting. Because, if you rent a house, you can change where you live indefinitely easy, also, you don't have to deal with the condition of the house. If the house is getting lousy or broken, just call the landlord and have it fix. If its unfixable, just change another one. Thus, the rent is always higher than the interest of the loan to cover these extra risk.

No companies rent because it increases tax savings. Interest on debt is deducted from revenue BEFORE tax, where as return on equity is taxed normally.

Individuals can do this as well with 'negativer gearing', but negative gearing relies on the value of the real estate to increase in order to leverage and make a big return. Waiting for values of real estate to go up is not risk free, it doesn't always happen. And if you are leveraged you lose more.

>>3921227
Cheap house -> cheap rent
The more you sublet, the lower the individual rent. Not to mention it cause more wear on the house and decreases it's market value. There will be a local maximum on return vs sublet, but even at the local maximum you won't earn enough rent to cover even the interest.

These things happen primarly because the current cycle of the system reaches it's peak slowly, meaning accumulation of power by very few entities that set the rules and corrupt the legislative to their benefits.
What neoliberals don't understand: Their prosperity is linked to the wealth of the public, if nobody can afford their silly overhyped and overpriced products, they are gonna lose everything in the long run.
It's a downward spiral of price dumping by exploiting the poorest to provide generally affordable prices for the public while the wealth of the majority of the public is decreasing by doing so.

I won't fight you too much on this. I don't particularly agree, but I don't think its too much of a stretch either. My one contention would be Utopia. Politicians with a philanthropic drive tend to be not as ambitious, powerful, or plentiful as selfish power mongerers. Scientists also are not always Utopia seekers. As someone said before, science is largely funded by military. It might be argued that military is needed for Utopia, its not exactly a fun rainbows and unicorns job for the people actually working on weapons.

Honestly, I don't think these "elites" have the manpower anymore to force more than the people that reside in the same country as them to follow their will, if that. I'm hoping that, with the US at least, when the international reserve currency changes from the US Dollar, the US starts to fracture into smaller nations. While freedoms in larger urban areas will probably restricted "for the greater good", smaller rural areas will be able to escape this due to there not being much of an advantage to greatly split up the police force in trying to force urban and rural areas to follow the will of this in power (makes them too weak on both fronts, better to just control one area).

>First step is to get rid of nation state and create bigger Unions for easier control, obviously this will overrule the democracies as we know them today.

This is a big step. People in power don't give up power. People in power would have to gain more power from being in a large Union, and that is not guaranteed. Democracies also ideally have power in the people, and people can also revolt. Not that its impossible to have a "Big Brother" but its not one little step.

>Then they need something to get the public to accept the new paradigm. Either by letting the Unions fight each other by proxy wars like in 1984 or to give up their liberties for a greater good.

Is it that important for people in power to cement power by going to war? Are there not other ways of securing a place in the world, such as economic reliance. People do have to give up liberties for the common good. Its called law.

>In former times they used religion, but this won't do it now so they invented the environmental cult accompied by esoteric teachings (doesn't mean you are bad for being interested in these things, just that they support it).

I just noticed some mistakes because I was in a hurry, so let me apologize and correct myself

- War on Terrorism was used to secure geo-political imporant areas to force the 'rouge states' into compliance by making them dependent, i.e. by controlling the energy transport lines

- Before the new paradigm comes into place they have first to make sure to make the public dependent onto the current system like with wealth transfer systems as effect of the controlled economy by big corporations who profit from their connection to big banking and labor camps in the East. This will destroy the middle-class and shift society into two class system, the higher class and the working class, the middle class will become insignificant, lower paid and more importantly dependent on government funds.

Then the greeny agenda play out and will be hammered into your skull by the controlled mass media infrastructures: TV Series, Movies, Documentation, Print Media, Internet News Portals, NGOs, politicans, corporations and so on.
For the one who gonna resist the police state grid had been installed. In these times you have to expect the growing of the total surveillance grid brought to you by the NSA, Microsoft, Sun, Cisco, Google, Apple, Siemens, MIT and the list goes on.

The majority of the public will embrace the new Gaia Church of Climate Change and go along the plans to decrease of carbon emissions of 95% up to 2050 (sorry for the mistake before) because most of them won't understand the effects of these policies.

Revolts will be small and non organized because of the mind control of the media and the demonstrators will be fought down by special police units and para-militaries.

Then the rationalizing of public goods will start, social transfers to keep everbody from revolting but on the lowest level, eugenics and birth control laws, re-education is already starting in schools and universities.

It's very easy to scream about the injustices of this when you live in a country with seemingly endless resources. Nevertheless, the earth does have a maximum carrying capacity. Assuming we have things like healthcare and food and safety standards that substantially increase longevity and push local carrying capacities upward, and assuming that simply letting the population max out and cause a massive worldwide disaster is undesirable, how do you propose that we keep the population at a sustainable level without breeding restrictions? This is not an ideological question, strictly a practical one.

>And rationalizing isn't really what you said.
Now if we're going to start arguing semantics, might I suggest you look up the word "rationalize" in a dictionary. The word you are looking for is "ration."

>Rationalizing means that there is enough for all and that you would be able to afford it but aren't allowed to by the authorities because they have to fulfil some soviet style quotas based on xy year plans off of fraudulent scientific estimations
Except there isn't enough for all. Of anything. Period. The world has finite resources, and regardless of (real, scientifically sound) things like climate change, the ultimate fact is that the earth can only support a certain quantity of living things. At some point you must either ration resources, restrict the population, or both. Industrialization and modern science have eliminated many of the mechanisms that kept population in check in the past, and the longer and healthier we as a global society live the more of a problem it will be.

So I will modify my earlier question that you never answered. Given the statement above, what practical means do you propose to prevent the worldwide catastrophe of maxing out the sustainable population for the available resources?

You can point at anything and call it an injustice, but if you can't actually explain why it's bad or offer a practical way to avoid it then you're just pissing into the wind.

• The population at large could be sterilized by infertility drugs intentionally put into the nation's drinking water or in food;
• Single mothers and teen mothers should have their babies seized from them against their will and given away to other couples to raise;

I find it hilarious that you would challenge the established and universally accepted fundamental scientific facts pertaining to life on earth, offer no proof yourself, then point out it is the burden of the accuser to provide evidence for his claim. You, sir, are the accuser here. You are the one making outrageous claims and thus the burden of proof is on you.

Aside from that, I have made no assertions that can not be readily deduced by opening your fucking eyes and looking around. I have made three assertions that are relevant to this argument.
1) The earth's resources are finite. This is self-evident. The earth is of finite size and receives a finite amount of energy from the sun, thus it has a finite amount of resources.
2) The earth has a maximum carrying capacity. This is self-evident. Living things need certain quantities of resources to survive. If the available resources are limited, logically the population must be limited as well.
3) Exceeding the carrying capacity of the earth will result in disaster. This too is self-evident. When you have more people than resources, people die until you are back under the limit. Furthermore, the closer you get to the carrying capacity the more you exhaust all of the biological buffers, thus increasing the impact when you finally hit the wall. This has happened on a local scale countless times in history. This is not fringe science, it is absolute fact. Read a book.

Now, are you ready to answer my question? I didn't ask you to prove anything, I asked a simple question that should warrant a simple answer.

>Some of the technocratz write in their own books about the upcoming world government but they don't mean it so right?

You're crazy, and you seem like you actually mean what you say. It doesn't mean its true, and it doesn't mean random guy Bob, or the rest of the population thinks its true.

>And if somebody collects this data and provide it's to the rest via the internet, it doesn't mean it's true because it's on the internet, right?

First, you really didn't answer my question. I didn't ask about how we decide what to do, I asked what do we do.

>First have the most expensive and most expansive international research unit completely under public control and oversight
How do you propose to have the public oversee the scientific community? As it stands now, anybody can contribute and anybody can access the materials that are produced.

The sun provides effectively continuous energy to the earth. There is IS a finite amount of energy you can collect from the sun before it blows up, but it's ridiculous to think that it's going to be a factor in the next ten-thousand lifetimes.

What the issue here is usage of fuels or other energy sources that will exceed the current amount of energy provided by the sun, or that fossil fuels consumed will have an adverse effect on the climate (disputed)

That's not at all what I said. I said that the earth has finite resources and that it can receive a finite amount of energy from the sun. There is nothing incorrect in that statement and I stand behind it 100%.

The purpose of that was to illustrate the self-evidence of the basic foundation of my argument. Fossil fuels are a more immediately relevant issue, but there are plenty of other energy options out there. The purpose was to illustrate that somewhere out there, regardless of how anybody twists the arguments about contemporary science, there is a functional limit to the Earth's resources.
