Break from the norm and make a little money however you can and live within your means.
The price you pay for living with little is not that bad when you have your total freedom to gain.
I spent the past 30 years scraping by doing odd jobs, building, construction, renovating and whatever hands on work I could find. I'm no pro, I just work and work continuously. I'm not wealthy by any stretch, but I do own outright two old used vehicles, three old motorcycles and I own my own small property. If you saw my old house and old car and truck, you'd think I didn't have much money. My greatest wealth is in being able to say I own all my things and property without debt.
After spending years wondering what to do with my life, I'm happy with where I am now.
Oh! Perfect! A simple solution! ๐ถ
