>>2454171Stop worrying about a girlfriend/wife. She'll come along in time.
Focus on acquiring as many skills you may need around a homestead. While learning how to homestead, effectively work as much as you can to stockpile cash and resources you'll need for your homestead. What I mean by this is don't settle for any job. That fast food job making 8 bucks an hour isn't worth waste your time on and it won't help you gain the skills you need to homestead. I have never built anything in my life, so I found a entry level construction job to help me learn skills I'd need while getting paid.
After you have an amount of money to purchase a property, start looking for foreclosures and tax deed properties. I highly recommend this for low income people. I've purchased properties worth 100k+ for less than 10k using this method.
Once you get your land, map out where you want everything you'll need and begin making amendments to your soil. If you have surplus cash and can afford to buy animal feed get animals at the same time. If not, wait until your crops are established and start working towards getting smaller livestock (chickens/rabbits/guinea pigs/quail/etc)
Establish rainwater collection (if legal in your area),sandpoint wells, deep wells, water purification systems, etc.
Next is your power system. Research what works best in your area.
Finally, build whatever you need to keep you functional. I got tired of buying tools so I built a green wood workstation with a shave horse and lathe, a forge and blacksmithing area, linen/wool/leather work area, etc. Problems will occur that are unforeseeable and it will be completely up to you to solve those problems. Ignore the lazy shills. You can do this, but it will be hard work.
>>2454259I was in his position a few years ago. I manage a homestead that is near self sufficient now. We produce about 80% of everything we need (food, tools, animal feed, power, water, etc.) Stop being a faggot and try to help out.
