I have yet to see a plan, that would actually work for me. I would really love to quit my job, unfortunately I don’t see a course of action that would give me enough confidence about my future to actually do it.
Also in case you’d like to live in a paradise valley taking Santo Daime (a religious ritual with DMT) about twice a week, you can do it with a salary of aproximatelly 500 dollars per month in Vale do Gamarra, where I just spent carnival, that is what the guy who drove us back did. Given Brazilian or Turkish returns on investment, that would cost you 50 000 bucks in case you refused to work within the land itself for the 500.
Can you elaborate on this? How would I actually do this and what would my future life be like?
Look, there are plenty of good looking places where you need little money to live.
The best practice would be to earn or inherit some money before you go. like the 50000 I suggested. You know, for cancer safety and similar risks.
Vale do gamarra is a territory where religious christian communities that take DMT while saying new age jesus stuff exist, and some people live there, in the middle of nowhere but well connected with nature, since there are small huts which are part of a kind of hotel, you get normal urban people visiting every now and then. You can work for whoever owns the land doing things like taking people places, lighting the fire which makes the sustainable hot tub work, helping with events etc.… maybe you can grow some crops. I don’t think it is the only one, there are more in the amazon forest and north of brazil. I’ll bet also in Peru there are similar things. You can also go to buddhist temples and monasteries, specially in the phillipines and southeast asia, and live for a few months there.
Again, none of those options sound to me like a “for the rest of your life” kind of option. Basically because nothing sounds like that to me. I look around and I see no reason to believe people do the same thing their entire lives. I know almost none who kept only one profession, lived in only one city, or one romantic partner for life. Even fewer kept the same job. Same job in the sabe company. Wow, we are getting to the low millionths here. etc.…
Why would I be different? I don’t want the half EA, quarter ultravagabond, quarter Academic lifestyle I’ve had for 6 years any longer.
I want a job, and that, as Americans have known for centuries. Is totally Ok as well. The hard part is that I want it to lead to saving the world in the long run and not through earning to give, given relative advantages and disadvantages of being me. But anyway, I wrote on not getting job. I want a job, and I’m completely fine with that.
