| Pairing Financial Independence with Earthships Posted: 09 Jul 2020 11:38 AM PDT I'm a long-time lurker in a the FI space, and a newcomer to the idea of an Earthship! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earthship The idea is that clever building design, preferably using recycled materials, can keep utility bills near zero and lower food bills as well. All it takes is land, southern exposure, time, and lax building codes (or a disregard for stricter ones). It's a form of homesteading, but in a way that to me seems to encourage working smarter rather than harder. Here's a video interview of a Canadian couple who claim to have eliminated all bills, and are now looking at financial independence and early retirement. They credit their custom green home. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTU2KlwOnQw I own a condo that comes with a lot of bills and expenses, and I can see the appeal. I'm trying to now look at how to include an Earthship in my future plans. Has anyone here done this or considered it? [link] [comments]  |
