Re: The Education of Axel Heyst
Heh ya, I think if you are earning money in a way you don't want to, i.e. very into freedom-from, or really want to do something for awhile that is unlikely to earn money, this can be an important revelation. Maybe you eventually want to be able to afford XYZ, but you don't need to secure the money ...

Re: Where do you get music?
I have a slot in a Spotify family plan. This allows you to download music onto our phone (and possibly laptop?). It's possible to download from wifi and not cellular data. My fav way to find new music is to meet sub-35 year old women who are attractive and look like they would listen to music that I...

Re: The Education of Axel Heyst
I think this is a very important revelation, particularly past WL5. WL6 is initially more expensive for most (or maybe just me, but I think it's most) as WL5ers solve problems with money. Getting new skills often requires expanding capital which is likely to require some money for a WL5er. Likely ev...

Re: The Education of Axel Heyst
$50/ month is boring. Is a dedicated space the most interesting and fun way to solve this problem? Is a network of garages? Is it a club or an entire way of life? What is the problem?

Re: The Education of Axel Heyst
I think people would be willing to pay for an ERE HQ. I think the house/ hub idea could work too though. Pluses and minuses for both. Since it's going to take a very dedicated individual to pull this off, I don't think arguing ideals matters that much. It's going to be 1-5 visionaries pulling of the...

Re: Damn it Feels Good to be a Gangsta
Confessions of an ERE Hoarder: Storage, Maintenance and Organization I think, as a society, we are bad at storing, maintaining and organizing. We bias the new. I know I do. As I make my way through WL6, I'm realizing I have a poor concept of maintenance and storage. I was taught to buy everything, ...

Also if this is not clear, I will basically hang out with anyone if you visit New Orleans. Just make sure I'm free and here. If I have met you or if you have a bunch of forum posts, I will try to host you, but I live a precarious life, so def message me about it. I can also hook up people who want t...

@sodatrain: There is no buy in to the community. He's trying to get like minded people to buy property on the street as it goes up for sale.

Re: Damn it Feels Good to be a Gangsta
Damn, I wish I liked boats.
My friend used to live on his boat. He was really good at shredding violin solos and ruining women's lives. He was also my first friend to die. Not 100% sure what became of his boat.

Re: ERE City (US)
It seems like you guys are learning small town and also leaning homestead. I don't think there is a lot of representation on here, but southern* cities are good for urban homesteading, I think. Older southern cities have a lot of single family homes with small yards, but are also highly walkable and...

Re: Damn it Feels Good to be a Gangsta
Ah, yes, I completely agree with you @ertyu! How I think of it is that our culture does not fully prepare us to be complete humans. It sets a lot of traps while telling us to love those traps. One of these traps is that our culture is emotionally immature. We don't learn how to process or regulate o...

Thanks for the comments everyone! What I'm saying is that on: Level 1: There is no morality. There is no judgement. The cheetos basement dweller is not a loser because there are no losers or winners.

Ok, I know you are trying to start ERE city in Tucson @grundomatic, but these problems would be solved for you in New Orleans. People here really hate to work.

Thanks again to everyone who responded about heterotelic goals. This topic has been on my mind for the past few weeks.

Re: AE's Journal Round 6 - Navigating the Liminal Space
Are you switching up your plan to delay it again or is it genuinely what you want to do? How much longer will it take you to move to another city vs. Boulder? Could you just rent for 3 months in Boulder? I have a lot of opinions on cities. I've been to almost every major U.S. city. My fav is obvious...
