land that can support a family of 3+ is crazy expensive bro. getting a well and septic put in will cost almost as much as constructing the cabin in your pic. you might not think it, but electricity and gasoline are important. trying to do self sustaining agriculture for more than one person is a lot of fucking work without power and solar alone can't give you that, never mind the ludicrous up front costs that solar has.

to do an off the grid set up properly takes tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars in capital. even then, you are still going to need some sort of monetary income to pay for things like taxes and modern medicine (which you'd be a fool to give up). the only way to really do that is to have an investment portfolio that can pay out at least 10k+ a year, so thats another couple hundred thousand you need somewhere.

so all in all, you are looking close to half a million dollars to completely disconnect and not be living in appalachia hillbilly tier poverty. who's got that kind of dough?

That's the dream. Where I live and work there's a fuckload of outdoorsy girls who have similar aspirations.

There is nothing complicated to it.

I said it was simple, not easy.
It takes a massive amount of effort if you don't have lottery winnings to drop on it.
But its literally as easy as going to one of the major land sale sights, picking a ploy of land, calling the Realtor and mailing a check for $250 to get started.
There are "no money down, no credit checks, low monthly payments" land for sale everywhere.
If you don't have the time or knowledge to build a cabin, get a prefab (again, low monthly payment) or some used travel trailer to start.
If you truly have the desire you can learn what you need to know along the way.

Cabin is just to the right of the tractor- sorry I didn't get it in the pic but I was focused on the precise location of the tank for future maintenance

I'll take a guess and say you live in a major metropolitan area and think everyone in rural america eats squirrels because its a 16 hour drive to the nearest supermarket.
There's a Walmart about 27 miles away. I can be there in less than a half hour.
When I lived in Las Vegas, it would take me 45 minutes to drive to the Walmart that was 6 miles away because traffic sucked ass.

But, maybe denali anon can chime in. He has a cabin in Alaska and has to meet a sea plane down at an unnamed lake every couple months for food and cooking/heating fuel.
>>
>>1089913
Because you don't buy 1 acre.

>>
>>1089915
No it's just that if you're gonna live innawoods unless you go on full self-sustainability mode (which I assumed you were doing because unless I missed it you haven't mentioned if you were doing or not) you still need income to afford groceries and basic shit, and I don't see myself commuting between work and the middle of nowhere every day, also I don't have enough capital to get income from investments at the moment.
>>
>>1089922
I'm not off grid.
I thought that was obvious with the power lines and satellite dish.
I did not have a job lined up when I came out here.
I have a half hour commute to a welding job.
But I'm surrounded by forest. I have deer, turkey, fox and too many other creatures to list (I have a panther that comes through my forest during the end of summer when its dry- it was here last week).
I have the capability of being self sustainable- hand pump wellhead, fruits and vegetables, plenty of game to hunt. But my intent was to get away from the decadence of modern society in large city's.

My work is near the sheriff station, they drive by all the time. I've actually hung out in the parking lot after work with some of the guys and we passed around my buddy's new ar-15, just to check it out. Cop drived by and just waved.
THAT is a prime example of what makes all the hard work worthwhile.
>>
But I am. In Idaho.

It's different for sure. You plan your trips to town and winter can be hard. Last year my water line froze from January ish to late April because I forgot to leave a faucet dripping. Turns out my pipe is only buried about 6 inches below the driveway. But the good times outweigh the bad, the privacy and the view and just...everything is fantastic. And the hard times where I have to troubleshoot make me a stronger person.

I never asked for easy. I wouldn't have it any other way than how it is. And truthfully I would die inside if I wasn't here.
>>
>>1089927
Sounds similar to me. When I lived in the small town west of me the cops shot at the same sand pit I did for training. My first look at a holographic sight was when one of the officers let me shoulder his AR with an eotech. Obviously couldn't fire his PD weapon but still, that sort of trust absolutely doesn't exist in the metro. People as a whole in the metro are animals. It's funny that they act like we are rough or uncivilized when by and large we retain much more of our humanity.
>>
You're eventually going to kill all the animals then starve to death, fucktard. Thats why indians were nomads.
>>
The point I'm trying to make is that it not black and white.
Its a sliding scale.
You can find land 50 miles away from the nearest neighbor and have to be completely off grid.
Or be like me where your neighbor is within walking distance but you never see them unless you want to.
If you're from someplace like southern California it might be hard to comprehend that there's something in between the suburbs and a 5,000 acre spread in Wyoming because your used to such a dense population that never ends- but most of the country has elbow room. And most of it has commerce and business to support those people.
>>
>>1089934
>that's why indians were nomads

Plenty of indians lived in agricultural settlements.
>>
>>1089937
Yeah, but you don't see them tending to massive fields of corn, squash and beans these days. Thousands of indians go hunting for months at a time on thier land, then live in society for a year or two to let their land replenish.

>>
>>1089934
I'm in cattle country.
I don't hunt actually.
I'm surrounded by grass fed black Angus steer. They eat 100% local grass and then local hay in the winter.
Ranchers have clear cut meadows within the forest. Cows get moved to one field- when the grass is gone they're moved through an alley into another clearing and cycled like this throughout the year.
Logging pines is huge here.
Cut down 100 acres, replant, come back and do it again in 15-20 years. Doing small tracts keeps habitat for wildlife and prevents erosion.
It's already a proven system that is 100% sustainable.
Our deer and turkey populations are so prolific that people come from the neighboring states and pay out the ass to hunt them.
So eat a dick.

This is 100% absolute bullshit. There are no states that have made it illegal to collect rain water for personal use and some even offer incentives for it. There are some states that require a permit for commercial collection.

The case of the man in Oregon is often cited incorrectly. He happened to have a rain water collection system, but that is not what he was arrested for. He was arrested for illegally diverting a river and interfering with down stream water rights.

Again, absolutely no state forbids private citizens from collecting rain water.

Stop spreading this lie.

It is really really nice never being in any kind of debt at all. No credit cards, no car loans, no student loans, no mortgages, zero debt. If you don't have any debt and don't think around attaining debt in order to get what you want, your mental state will be something you can't even imagine if you are already in debt.

Your own link states that it's not illegal for private citizens to collect rain water in Colorado, just that they have a limit on how much they can collect (two barrels).

The other cited case is a care dealership in Salt Lake City, UT. But that's a business collecting for commercial purposes.

The point is still valid. No state has made it illegal to collect rain water for private use.
>>
>>1089775
>US, Canada or Russia,

Not those countries, but over the last few weeks the overly educated wife has decided to chuck her job in and we're moving back to the farm. She's decided that its not worth the stress, lack of acknowledgement, travelling in the city and all the other stuff that goes with being some kind of hot shit lawyer. Kind of a big move for her and I actually wasn't expecting it so soon, we'd discussed it ages ago as an option but I'd sort of convinced myself that it might be another 5-10 years in the future.
Doesn't really affect my income, but as a family it'll be a mix of having less income overall, but less we have to worry about once our properties in the city are sold.

Its going to be interesting times!

Water rights are never as simple as you'd think they are.

In some places, rainfall doesn't just sink into the ground and stay there. It accumulates and becomes part of a larger water system. Too many people collecting too much rain water in one area could negatively affect other people who rely on that water system.

But this is really only an issue in certain states like Nevada, Colorado or California where regular droughts are a bigger problem. Some states don't have rules on how much you can collect, but have rules on the methods used to collect it.

Like other posters have said, though, the vast majority of states in the US have no rules on collecting rain water and some even provide tax breaks for doing it. There is no nation wide push to ban rain water collection despite what the "Senior Health Ranger" says in his article on "Nature News"

Good Lord, you are the most retarded person I've seen today. Rainwater system rather than well, composting toilet rather than septic. If you're such a pussy that you can't stand working in the sun or doing some work then you oughta be wearing a dress, cuz there are plenty of girls out there that aren't as big a baby as you are. You don't need more than a $300some solar setup for a radio and some lights, a laptop, TV, whatever really. Not "ludicrous" at all, unless you're looking to power fucking A/C units. A wood stove isn't too expensive and will last you a lifetime, buy land near a swimming hole to cool off, don't need A/C. Don't need much of any income to pay taxes if you don't buy expensive land. Do you know how little land in the Ozarks costs? Keeping some money back for medical emergencies would be good, but you don't need to be taking out 10k a year.
You can be off grid for not a lot of money and be clean, have plenty of food and clothes, you just have to work for it you sissy.

Living in a cabin away from nice amenities and life-saving emergency services sounds like a pain in the ass.

And a wife and kids? Are you from the 1940's or something? Only the extremely poor and extremely rich have children anymore.

Maybe I phrased that wrong. I have seen some people with kids and they certainly aren't worth millions, but god knows what kind of a life they'll have. They certainly have my pity.

>never borrow money, da jooz etc

While you stay poor in your shitshack, borrowing money is the smart way to make enough coin to live the way you want. I could sell all my assets tomorrow, be "debt free" and have a tidy sum of money to my name, or I could maintain my debt while the value of those assets continues to rise.

also your entire mentality is retarded. Just move to the middle of nowhere and hope you can land a job to pay for your expenses, or else you'll starve. I could afford to move to a remote place and buy/build a house, get set up etc. But without securing employment there or an income source (like another anon mentioned, passive income through renting properties I own) then all I've done is lock myself in to a life of poverty and misery. I actually do intend to do that one day but not in a kneejerk seat of my pants way that results in a shitty poor life for me and my family.

You don't have to be the living embodiment of a hipster craftsman meme.

You can make good money with a real business, especially in rural areas.

Mobile welding is good everywhere, but if you already knew a trade or how to weld you'd think of doing that already.

Pressure washing, and sandblasting don't require a huge investment, don't take up all your time, and are very profitable.

If you're close to a highway, towing is another option.

There is bound to be a good business for you. Thare can't not be.

lol why the fuck would you?

I live in a city because I have a job that pays a fuck ton. My wife has a job that pays a fuck ton.

We're both on track to retire in about 8 years, at the ripe old age of 40. We're planning to have kids in 2-3.

After that retire we'll have 2 paid off houses (one to rent) and one to live in a rural small town (25k) area, about 15 miles out of town, close enough for everything we want, schools, a hospital, ect, far enough to feel a bit isolated and own 160 acres for cheap.

Plan is to build a custom house, fully capable of being off grid but also connected for convience, well and city water, solar and city, sewer and septic.

Then live off rental and investment income and really enjoy life. Wake up with my kids, spend the day with my wife hiking, shooting, exploring, tinkering on projects, maybe freelance some as I'm a software developer.

I don't get why people are willing to trade 15 years or their life to have a really nice 40 or 50 year existence.

Serious answer: in the mid to late1800s there were a lot of weird purity/health reform movements in North America. All kinds of sanitoriums, communes and hospitals cropped up with all kinds of treatments. Some benign, some weird and some outright dangerous. Male circumcision was one of the ones that caught on and stuck around since it didn't appear to have any long term dangers.

This is also the same social push that gave us corn flakes. And Mormons.

Perhaps a tractor-run tiller would be reasonable.
However, you remain more healthy and fit if you farm with a scythe (custom built for body beight and measure). My grandmother of 98 still operates her farm AND moves around heavy rocks, and fight off lions with an elephant gun, all in South Africa. And she is still alive and well.
She does this all by herself (she runs a tea farm). Holy shit if "a nigger aint got time for that" then your a lazy fucking spic. Go home Alejandro.

Jesus, all this guessing and zero real-world knowledge.
Have some facts:
>I bough 15 fertile acres ($1,200 an acre) with no money down, no credit check, $199 a month. That included a creek and small forest- not just some desolate piece of dirt.
>I use my bronco as a tractor with a used $100 harrow attachment hooked onto my towhitch. My front driveshaft isn't even hooked up right now.
>Ever see those hand pumps for wells in the movies? They only work up to 30 feet, that's just physics. Pump cost me $38. Well/sand point was $29. 25 feet of pipe was $65. An afternoon with a fence post hammer and I had "running" water. An electric pump was $219.
>getting electrical service cost me about $900- that includes service pole with meter box, main disconnect and 4 breaker slots for external use, 32 slot breaker panel in the cabin, 250 feet of 12/2 wire for outlets/lights etc and the 0/4 main power lines. Would have been about $300 cheaper if I was in the next county, they provide the service pole and meter box.
>septic system cost me $1,850, but I had him do some extra stuff so it was closer to $2k.
I didn't have an instruction manual on how to make this all happen- I just figured it out as I went along.

I'm sorely tempted anons. Should I do it? My only concern is that doing it will leave us with little to no money leftover, but also no debt or power/water/whatever bills to be paid. This means one of us has to get a job at least for a while, I work in Telco so I can probably find something anywhere but would like an at home earning option. In my country distillation laws are super lax, selling a little spirits sounds like a fun job. Has anyone ever distilled commercially?

Nice idea. Even in large cities water, gas, elecricity and heating are sometimes turned off just because. Here you also have to maintain a supply line in addition to paying for stuff. You also need to go to large cities to get food you won't puke from once in a while. Add money for fuel and car maintainance. And food. Getting money is virtually impossible since
1) Agricultural sector is dominated by latge companies and there are more than enough "organic food" hipster bullshit.
2) Internet would be shitty so no earning money this way.
3) Not that much jobs even in cities and they are payed like $500 at best. Literally nothing outside.

Water rights are really really really important in some parts of the world. Now you probably live somewhere where more then enough water just magically falls from the sky, but it's not hard to understand that some places DON'T GET ENOUGH RAINFALL, pretty much every drop is accounted for, and you get fined for going over your quota.

And yes, a lot of water is wasted in the desert on green lawns and crap they shouldn't have out in the desert. But I'm guessing if you think the gov't shouldn't regulate the use of rain fall, they shouldn't regulate the use of tap water either.

If you have zero construction experience, than it will take more time of course.
But finishing one of these prefab sheds is simple.

Plumbing is done with cpvc pipe nowadays. You can cut by hand and just glue everything together.
You don't need power tools to cut drywall- just score it with a razor knife and break it off. If its not a perfect cut, use trim board when you're done to cover it.
Even though most people are gun shy with electrical- its very simple. Plug one wire into the breaker for the hot side, the neutral and ground wires both go to the ground bar.
Drill a hole in the 2x4 studs to run the wire or plumbing to where you want a receptacle or switch or sink or whatever.

It might seem overwhelming, but its not.
Individually the steps are simple, just break them down into their components and you can get through any part of it step-by-step.
You WILL sweat.
You will need money, nothing is free.
I was lucky to have a friend with an empty house I could use kind of close by. But self-contained motorhomes or camper shells are cheap if you don't have that option.
It will take some time to setup everything in the beginning to get it livable.

What is the best part of the U.S. to live in without proper air conditioning? I figure with a shed/trailer/cabin I shouldn't have to spend more than 5000, the land could easily be had for 5000, so that's just 10000 for the land and housing. The hard part, to me, is finding land with utilities or developing the land. I can do electrical, pvc piping, basic house stuff just fine, but I can't dig a well or install a septic tank.
>>
>>1092616

This guy is full of shit and never built squat in his life.

Canadian here, I'm actually rebuilding my family cabin after it burned down, we're already 2 months in and we barely have the cement basement done and the floor.

It's really really complicated and costly, most crown lands that don't have utilities are all bought up, government regulations make it entirely impossible to build, you have to do limited renovations to the cabin you bought, can't change the size or anything, you must have a regulation septic tank ($$$), you have to get the material there knowing you probably won't even have a road, or have to carry it by boat over water like we do. You need to setup the water, propane and electric lines, install solar panels, fusebox, battery grid.

To give you an idea, a 30x30 cabin with a single level starts at around 150 000$ and that's not even counting the ATV, Boat, snowmobile, generator you might need...

If you go for wood stoves you have to take at least 3-4 weeks off every year to get everything done.

There's a fucking reason colonists back in the day ate tubs of pure salted lard at every meal, it's fucking hard work...

>a 30x30 cabin with a single level starts at around 150 000$
What fucking retarded dealer did you buy from? Don't be jewed and instead buy one of those 3000 dollar storage sheds with doors and windows.
>>
>>1092627

It's not a dealer you dumb fuck, it's crown lands, they're in very high demand because there's a moratorium on new constructions, you can't buy new lands so 150 000$ will get you a shitty cabin and 75% of the worth is just the land.

You're going to have to place your dumb storage shed somewhere dumbass, so it's gonna cost you maybe 110 000$ instead of 150 000$ assuming you can get the zoning board to give you land, which they only do once a decade, but you have to win the lottery, 50$ a ticket.

It's less about following the written law and more about not making things difficult for your neighbors or local law enforcement.

They didn't fuck us hard, we pay 500$ a year to rent crown land, my family was settled here over a century ago waaaay before the moratorium, even before they built the huge hydro-electric dams and we had to rebuild higher up in the hills.

Also, colonials didn't survive on just lard, it was just the fat of the epoch, they didn't have butter or olive oil, they used pig lard.

Southern California is the only place I can think of where you can live without A/C or heat. Be prepared for sticker shock if you look up prices.

If you (or anyone else) is serious about this kind of lifestyle, do research on water tables/well depth before you buy land.
That's the most important thing.
That land in Arizona for $60 an acre is worthless because it will never have running water.
It cost me less than $100 to do a shallow hand pump well.
I dropped my cabin on the corner of my property and was lucky there was a power line running down the road next to it. Electric company provides the first 300 feet of hookup for free. After that its $4 a foot overhead, $7 a foot underground. It could have easily cost an additional $5,000 if I had put my cabin on the backside of my property. So do your research.
>>

You do have some beautiful views from your place.

Hey /out/, I'm an anon currently living in Montana, Land here (even undeveloped) is expensive as hell, and I'll probably get 6.5 acres of land when my old man passes, but that's quite a ways down the road, it isn't very far in the woods ( has neighbors, super dry earth, can't get water rights despite being just south of an irrigation ditch), question is, what should I do? I'd like to stay living in this beautiful state, living off my own patch of land, and I have experience in gardening, hunting, and staying warm in the winter (ie logging) but no experience in how to build a cabin, getting off the grid, or anything of that sort, also I'm a little concerned about what I should do for the off chance I get in a medical emergency and the nearest ER is 40 miles away, should I learn some basic med skills by taking an EMT class?

There are always jobs.
There is cheap land in every state.
There is cheap temporary housing alternatves while you build- you can rent a room or buy some pos camper.

I'm 28, own my home and land, 0 debt, have my own small business and am looking forward to the future. Been working toward homesteading since I bought the place, got crops, chickens, ducks, about to install a 1500 gal pong for tilapi. Can't wait to be self sufficient. My friends and peers don't know how I did it, mostly because every time I try to tell them their eyes glaze over and the idea of leaving Mommy and Daddy becomes too scary a thought. Lately I've noticed whenever I speak about my life or what I'm working on my "friends" get passive aggressive telling me how "happy" they are I am living the way I want to live and how they wish they could have it so "easy".

A chapter of a book written by Walter Prescott Webb in 1930's (later revised in the 50's) studied the effects of Southern Farmers trading their horses and mules for tractors and automobiles and how this changed the agricultural system from one of subsistence farming to one of corporate subservience. With the introduction of the tractor to the farmers in the south were granted greater efficiency and a higher yield but were not better off in the long run when compared to the sustainability and re-usability provided by a horse and mule as the farmers stopped growing feed for the mules and changed to cotton and wheat and farmed more intensively exhausting the soil that sustained the farm. The reason was that the Horse and Mule can sustain themselves off a portion of feed provided by the Farmer and pays itself off over the course of a year and can provide service for up to 15 years. A Tractor requires taking out a loan, paying for petrol and for replaceable parts that had to come from Michigan and bought in the local town, drawing wealth away from the area.

If you want to get into agriculture and off the grid-living you are clearly doing it for reasons of self-reliance and individual freedom. If you choose to use more mechanical means to pursue this goal you will become financially dependent on the external world and potentially indebted to it.

With this in mind trading off some extra time to tend to your 25 acre plot by using traditional farming tools is completely reasonable. The question is what has a farmer got to do that is so important to him that he has to take less time out of his farming?

So jelly. I'm from the UK and it's very hard to afford even a single acre rural property here. 20 years ago it was easy but since our country is densely populated white flight from the cities has caused all property to become super expensive.

My thinking is that land listed online is the crap left over after everyone took up the good stuff. 5 acres for $5k is a good amount of land for the price but I have a suspicion it's very far from anything.

My friend has talked about combing local tax records and finding land someone isn't paying taxes on and then try to do a lien sale with the owner, since they most likely don't need it.

My plot was part of a farm that went to auction after the owner died.
It was overgrown with pine trees after farming on it stopped 30 years ago.
Realtor logged the pines, made back his money, cut it into smaller parcels and made a few extra bucks.
You can only do a lien if you have vested interest in the property. But land is auctioned off everyday for taxes or because the owner passed away.
I have a "neighbor" who owns over 400 acres- none of his family is interested in it when he dies.

My property was in a dismal condition after it was logged. It took months to clean up the debris and smooth out the terrain.
That's the trade off.
Buy a nice looking piece of property that someone else had prepped-and pay for their work, or buy something that's rough, save money and do the work yourself.

Ah, ask me that in a year if it was still a good idea... she doesn't quite understand how many sneks are around in summer and its 'pretty fucking rural'. But we've got cool neighbours and my half of the family is still nearby to hang out with, babysitting and stuff.
>This transition is to be alleviated by the fact that she can have one (1) Cat, no more than one and under no circumstances two (2) at any one time! And it must be neutered

I think there's enough to keep me busy for 2 lifetimes, or I can ditch engineering and just start making a lot more money out of the farm than we currently do, plus had a few ideas for a solar panel array to stick on some otherwise mediocre land (chainsaw time) and make money pumping power back into the grid. Got the idea planned out, but just a case of finding the materials at the right price so that it'd pay for itself in a reasonable period of time. Or at the very least get us neutral on power bills in a much sooner time frame, with power costs going up here lately it might not be a completely shit idea.
The other half needs something to do, so she's coming up with ideas for small business, either remote business and corporate law advice or I can just give her a couple of acres to grow flowers/berries/grapes/vegetables or whatever on to market. Fully organic food sells at quite a premium and if there's one thing a beef and sheep farm has is a lot of shit for fertiliser, we're hardly ever affected by drought here. I know my sister would definitely get in on it as well.

At the moment- cautiously optimistic

If you had the time you could do the framing yourself- the sheds are a necessary evil for some. Its instant but overpriced for what you get. I figure you could get 3x more "cabin" for the same cost if you did it all yourself- or the same thing for 1/3 the cost.

I don't hunt, but I don't allow rattlesnakes to roam my property.
1) they eat a miniscule amount of vermin. One pair of rats will breed and create 15,000 offspring in a year, a single rattlesnake will be lucky to eat 50 of those. In comparison, a fox or coyote will eat more than that in a week. Plus, removing rattlesnakes increases the kingsnake population..
2) "but they rarely bite"- tell that to grandma when she steps on one walking out to her car because she didn't see it on the lawn with her failing eyesight.
3) " bites are rarely fatal"- but they almost always cause permanent disfigurement, from muscle loss to digit amputation. Tell your 9 finger daughter that rattlesnakes are necessary for the environment.

This thread was great until "current state of the world" hit your algorithm (literally the post above yours) then you showed up with religious/Zionist issues intended to cause partisanship.

Technically protected species here, but you can destroy them if they get too close to kids, pets, livestock etc so I don't think you can sell skins. Generally I advise to avoid snek-human interaction of any kind and just let them go on their way as its exponentially far more likely to end up badly for you. We've had a warm winter and a lot of them have figured its spring already and come out for a look, had to shoot a tiger snake a couple of weeks ago when I was doing some fencing and he wasn't going to piss off.
Majority of them hang around the river though away from the houses and sheds, if you clear away places like tree logs, sheet iron on the ground and places for them to hang out, they generally go bush. My sister's huge flock bantam chickens will drive them off, kind of funny watching 20-30 of the cranky little birds just lose their shit and beat on a snake like it owes them money

>>1093037
NZ doesn't actually have any native snakes, so if you're a snekaphobic and like hiking in mountains it's great
My little area of Australia has sort of exploded over the last few years with people doing value-added speciality crops and critters in what is a traditional grazing/dairy area, so we've got berry farms, orchards, milk goats, cheese makers and all that sort of stuff. Plus a couple of places just over the mountain from me host rural retreats for people looking to get away for a weekend, small cafes, B&B and other fancy boutique shit. My farms main speciality is large frame White Suffolk sheep for meat production and a Poll Hereford cattle stud, so moving back there full time means I could just spend a lot more time focusing on getting beef and lamb production increased parallel to the stud farming

Looked at Kobe a few times and know a few people that do it, it is an intensive farming practice that demands a lot of time, so doing the numbers it's not quite worth the time and investment- yet

Kobe beef is $79.99 per 8 oz.

There's 50 black Angus steer across the Sreet.go ahead and say this doesn't look like a good dinner...
>>
>>1093248
Here at least we have Wagyu cattle from Japan in some numbers, so it is an authentic kobe beef and not just a heavily marbled Angus.
Generally they're raised for about 4-500 days after being weaned just on grain before being ready to slaughter, which contributes to the price increase. Just not ready invest in a feedlot + employees for a niche market just yet.
Angus also have some problematic genetics I'm not too fond of compared to larger breeds.

We do grass fed lean beef which has a very well established market here and overseas where people find it affordable, healthy and its an easy sell as an A-grade product in a world dominated by feed lots, diseases and use of excessive medical treatment on the animals. Plus our current focus is on producing cattle with good genetics, so we sell to Australian, Argentina, UK and a few other places that need their herds heath and diversity increased. When we look to increase the size of our herd and move into a parallel one for more numbers I'd probably consider another breed like Santa Gertrudis again, I had a fair bit to do with Angus when I was in high school doing agriculture there, so the less I have to do now with the cranky, bad tempered bastards, the happier I am! :)

That's just my situation, some people might look at getting their own small herd on a smaller amount of land and see a speciality breed like Wagyu as a perfectly viable option that can turn a good profit if marketed well. One area I will expand is the production of Mutton, aged and dried with a good butcher its making quite a come back for sales to restaurants as chef's appreciate the distinctive flavour. Sheep (and to some extent goats), are really good animals for small scale land owners- low maintenance, eat anything, can live nearly anywhere and very easy to physically manage, transport and slaughter.

4 acres. Big farmhouse.
Apple trees. Brook at back of property.

Same. Looking at moving to Alaska. ETS is 2021 but I might stay in for a bit longer. My current job gives me experience to get a decent job doing GIS for a state contractor.
Reasons for staying in are to get more job experience, and fiance wants to reclass to vet tech so she can get started on that when she gets out. I also feel the need to do a contract flying rotorwings to get some certs and not regret not doing it.
I want to just live on my own land finally..... at least I'll get a little pension from this new retirement plan they're doing.

Seriously that easy.
They get those questions all day long, they can rattle off requirements in seconds instead of you just guessing from peoples posts online.
Montana has shit water laws. Water rights in the east are "riparian", as in- if the water is on my land, I can use it.
>"All water in Montana is owned by the State, subject to appropriation for beneficial uses by water right claimants. Water right holders do not own the water. They only own the right to USE the water.
Now typically you won't have an issue with drilling a well for a cabin, but do research before you get in financially. Because you don't own the water under your land.

Cabin itself (empty shell) was like $8,500 iirc- at $250 a month, no interest.
WAY overpriced considering what it is. But it was delivered 3 days later for free and I was up and running. Working full time just to pay the new lifestyle it would be difficult to build one from scratch, even if you have the knowledge.

I'm originally from San Diego, California.
My best friend since high school died from cancer at 39 and it made me question what I was doing with lofe- so I went on a journey and wound up in rural Georgia. Bought the land on a whim and just rolled with it without having a single plan or any knowledge of what it took to make this happen.
>>1094597
Not the guy you asked, but I'm lead welder in my shop. I've taught people with zero experience and in a month they're making $25 an hour in an area where you can survive on minimum wage. I taught my friends 50 year old aunt and now she's making lawn art with my old mig welder.

That's crazy, but very cool that everything went good for you. Do you recommend Georgia?

$25 is fucking excellent, even here in Miami that's hard to earn. I would definitely consider welding, I am even down to study it at a technical school.

I was saying the other guy is gonna die because he's in the path of the strongest Atlantic hurricane ever recorded.

Georgia is interesting.
Atlanta is ground zero for hip hop. I've gotten off the largest freeway in south Atlanta and the 7-11 has bullet proof glass protecting the cashier. I expect that in some hidden corner neighborhood of every major city, but not off a major thoroughfare. I was the only white person I saw.
And yet the town I moved to still has KKK picnics, in full regalia, on weekend afternoons in the middle of town.

I'm from the desert- a friend had some property outside of las Vegas. Well company said they would have to drill about 2,500 feet to even have a chance of hitting water (no guarantees)- so that's a $40,000 bill for a dry well.
Where I'm at now you can throw a baseball blindfolded and where ever it lands you can drill and hit water within 100 feet.
Land is worthless unless you have water- so Georgia has that going for it.
10% of the Georgia population has conceal carry permits.
There's this thing some refer to as the "gnat line", learn where it is. South of it is brutal with these damn sand gnats- but hummingbirds will eat their weight in them daily. So put out feeders and buy a 10 pound bag of sugar, theyll breed and become a colony of mighty hunters, and come back every year.
Welding is toxic, but also takes a lot out of you during the day.
We've had days with a heat index of 112° and I'm leaning over steel that's 2,500 degrees when I'm welding. And if you're making money, its not from making keychains- you'll be lifting and dealing with massive pieces of metal. It can be great in a custom fab shop, but production is a bitch.

>I was saying the other guy is gonna die because he's in the path of the strongest Atlantic hurricane ever recorded.
I am that guy anon, currently in Miami, FL. Not worried at all, we'll probably be fine.

>Atlanta is ground zero for hip hop
Hell yea man, I follow that whole seen. Huge fan of trap music, and artists like Gucci Mane.

>Land is worthless unless you have water
That's definitely very important. Whenever I buy land it must have water, and maybe a stream or something.

>There's this thing some refer to as the "gnat line", learn where it is
Thanks, I'll do some research. I think there's gnats in FL, and I agree that they're a big pain.

>Welding is toxic, but also takes a lot out of you during the day.
>We've had days with a heat index of 112° and I'm leaning over steel that's 2,500 degrees when I'm welding.

I think I'll be good with the manual labor man, I am not exactly used to it, but I am not scared at all.
Do you live towards northern GA? That area seems nice, especially close to where the Appalachian trail is.
