All those YA books lied to me - Lemmy.World

This but for real

This is what finally growing up feels like and it’s shit

sell all your shit, get an older van with good mechanics (easier to fix)
convert it into a portable house
quit your job, go on an adventure…

NB : you require some savings before you do this, otherwise you just become homeless.

Remember kids, time is money, but money is also time.

Source : Took a year long sabbatical and moved continents and started a family. Please help me, the DGI is on my ass.

you can make money while living in a van…
one of the subs i mentioned is “digital nomads”, which is entirely employed people… living nomadically while working online… aka remote…
in r/vagabonds there’s a lot of more traditional traveler type work… seasonal stuff…

or you could tend bar or something

remember kids, money is a figment, time is counting down and you will die someday…

you won’t regret having adventures… but you will regret being comfortable
