>>2019271>Why not just buy a property in a village they are so cheapYeah come to where I live and try doing it without having to put your kids in debt after you die
>free stuff from other peoples laborobviously you don't understand a word of what these kind of projects mean nor have tried imagining
>40 to 50 year abandoned villages mostly ruins you have to pay for and obviously rebuild them yourself>also you need a car and that is money>most likely having to pay big-ass finesyou'll need to be working to have money just you can avoid 9-5 bc you will only have to pay for food. Most villages like this i've known go to france to work in the grape collect (minimum salary in spain 6euro/h, minimum in france 10euro/h) and in a car you can fit 5 people able to work there. After a month of work you'll have at least 800 euro per person so near 4000 euro to buy solar panels, building materials or anything you need. Money is not really the problem, I would also think it doesn't sound solid if i hadn't seen it work in at least 3 villages like this where i've been.
>every single commune failslook up Aineto, it started in the 70' and all the other villages in the valley thought they were just city hippies which would go back crying to daddy after a few years. Now the village is still inhabited, has its own legal school to which the kids from the villages near can go (also the government is forced to pay a salary to the teacher there), internet, water and electricity.
Its not about not working but about choosing to work in something that will really be yours and your kids' one day if you take it seriously.
You americans are too mind fucked to be even capable of imagining this kind of stuff.
