There isn't a need for many jobs in rural places. Most of the heavy lifting is done between family members, friends, and neighbors.

Yes. Once land, basic infrastructure, and means to eat are established, a family or even individual requires little money to perpetuate. If you have expensive taste, your land could provide as much or little wealth as you're willing to work toward.

The 'grow up, go to college, get a job, career, save for retirement, retire and then begin life' myth is for the birds.

Life begins with time and space and family all made possible through maximum freedom.

If you have land and water, planting a grove of trees intended to harvest for the lumber could bring in a quarter million in 20 to 30 years- easy. That's only one of millions of ways people can earn without a 'job'. Your job becomes tending and protecting the land and you're paid in ways that will exist and have value even if the dollar implodes and the banks go under or any other event that typically causes lots of people to lose their jobs and suffer through the boom and bust cycles-

-WHICH WE'RE LEARNING ARE NOT SO COINCIDENTAL AFTER ALL.

That's real power.

The best part is that farmers and ranchers only set the stage and nature does all the hard work, freeing them up for family and other pursuits of interest.

2. On smaller farms, there are zero days off. My husband and I operate our farm by ourselves, with very minimal outside help. Since we’re raising livestock, one of us has to be there at all times to care for the animals. We moved to the farm 12 years ago, and we haven’t been on vacation together since then!

I will, Metoo. And thanks for reading! These are all old old ideas that we've largely forgotten- to our demise.

Half of America is convinced the system is broken but they don't realize they're trapped in a bubble.

The more word is spread that the American Dream is still attainable and rooted in freedom, the more power will be stripped from the people who gain their power through dependence attained by the people's ignorance of what individuals are capable of when fully aware, awake, alert, independent, and cooperating.

Nothing says freedom like never leaving the town where you were born to work the family farm even if you want to do something else with your life

Farming is a breeze if you like 60 hour workweeks and hard physical labor -- and, obviously, no free time.
