The reason more men don't do this is status. Because women love status. Applies to literally everything.

in order to afford a """starter home""" in my current location i'd need a promotion to manager ($130-140k/year) and deal with the insane stress caused by that. instead i think im going back to school for a 2 year healthcare degree. $60-80k/year goes a lot further when houses are only $160k vs $400k where i am now.

>>55773037
This was exactly my thought. These are also the types of places where you don't really need to take vacations and stuff. there's so much to enjoy right where you are.

>>55773034
Yeah I'm sure dating as a guy in my 30s would be a lot different in that type of situation. They'd prefer a guy who spendings 65% of his income on rent in a city but appears wealthier.

>>55772999
I want to but have children and the problem always is no good schools in the middle of nowhere. Would have to home school which idk maybe that’s the move but I’d never get my wife to agree to it.

>>55773142
>no good schools
i went to a shitty underfunded rural school. if they're smart then they'll find a path in life.

>>55773142
Yeah thats been a big aspect I've considered. I'm not sure if this is a retarded line of thinking, but I have considered that living a more peaceful lifestyle with more free time could lead to being more present in children's lives? Essentially spend some time outside of school hours supplementing their education with online learning tools. In the end your kids get their shitty public education with perfect grades, and whatever knowledge they gain from the supplemental programs you've had them do?
At the very least this leads to a high GPA, a compelling college admissions essay, and an interesting background. I have a hard time believing a kid with that background couldn't leave high school smarter than the average subrban kid in a "good" school district.
Is that enough for them to get some solid financial aid at a decent college, and to excel with the new resources they'd have access to at that college?

>>55773164
This is kinda what I'm referring to here >>55773204

I think the only tricky thing to supplement education from home is math, but even that wouldn't be too bad if you the parent have decent comprehension and the time to help.

>>55773222
high IQ move is a rural college town, especially if it's a research university. your kid will likely have access to early entry college enrollment or at the very least broke graduate students who would love to make $50/hour under the table, privately tutoring your kid.

>>55773251
Very interesting idea. I was looking at towns surrounding Burlington.
Definitely seems like it would have more resources and education for kids compared to other similar COL areas.

>>55773142
I was homeschooled until 7th grade and I regret my parents doing that to me and my 2 sisters. I made it out ok by public school was a culture shock and I had to go to sumemr school in 7th grade becuause I failed math. if you dont want your kids to be weird, dont home school them. At least not all the way until high school.

Sup, I'm going to try and respond to everyone's points but if I miss something my bad. I'm responding because I set out to do at 25 what OP is essentially questioning the validity of.
Short answer is you're all correct in different ways. I moved to rural appalachia and havent paid more than 750 per month for any place Ive stayed, including the house I bought in 2021 which is 750 including escrow and taxes. bought for 115k on a 3.5% fha loan so I am not loaded. I was pulling about 50k when I bought, make about 90k now and I am more than comfy. Owning your own home is a status symbol in and of itself so you can take an income hit and offset that with owning a home, especially for immigrant girls, property is class. Rural college town isn't bad, ironically the best schools in the country are Iowa public schools so that works out too. There are still many remote jobs out there especially in industries like finance or accounting where its 100% online anyway. Vermont is overpriced but If that's what you like go for it. I would go for southern KY since Nashville is blowing up atm. Also, a bigger relative city in Appalachia is great like Morgantown or Hagerstown, or Knoxville, or Roanoke. But like I said is schools are a concern Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, South Dakota all have some good schools. Homes in these places can be super cheap like mine which is great, but I had to put about 20k into it over the next year or so after buying to fix it up and make it nice. The bottom line is, culture and community is everything. There is nothing saying you cant move back to a big city if thats what you want, but for my money like like having disposable income I can invest for passive income, because at the end of the day I do not dream of labor.

Nice anon, thanks for the validation. I agree that Vermont isn't mid-west cheap. I'd just love to still be able to be in some mountains and would pay a premium for it, and it's still way more affordable than my current suburban hell prospects
Honestly Appalachia sounds like a pretty sweet option too but I really love the cold/snow

>is no good schools in the middle of nowhere
there are no good schools anywhere in the US anymore, least of all in urban area's. At this point if you are White and no homeschooling your children you are retard.

>>55773142
>no good schools

Every single school will sexually indoctrinate, groom, and make your child see white people as public enemy #1. There are no "good" schools. Get a smart wife, and have her homeschool your children. The traditional maternal role has always been to educate, not even to do farm work anything like that, we have long since forgotten her role. It's why women like books so much.

>>55773064
yeah its super cool. i pull and look wealthy but am actually in tremendous debt. its really not even worth it at this point, im tapping out, getting real, and ignoring hoes until i get my ship righted again. may never go back. theyre not so great once youve had your fill tbqh.

What is a ‘good school’ in the United States? A school that most efficiently teaches your son to wear women’s underwear?

You should aspire to be less of a spiritual teen. Unfortunately that will come with time and not advice

>>55775345
dude I just want to live near woods and mountains. It's not really spiritual I just like camping fishing and snowboarding and dislike crowded cities and suburbs.
I dont really see why having this preference is such an issue

Stupid goy. thinking you have to "make it" 1st before you can go live where you want. Just go live where you want. Simple as. Hint: cabins for rental exist almost anywhere. You don't have to actually buy/own property, dummy.

You in AI.com too?

>>55775398
Go ahead and drop hundreds of thousands of dollars on a trad shack in a state you’ve never even been to and work at a gas station. Sounds like a good plan. God I hate fucking teenposters

>>55775419
>Just go live where you want.
Live laugh love!! More great advice from spiritual teenaged girls

>>55775446
I've spent a lot of time in Vermont. I'd be looking at a 3 bed house on at least 5 acres. The gas station thing was hyperbole.

Yes you’ve truly found the path out of samsara. Way to go, teenposter

>>55775536
im not arguing against you. im saying you should do it. im just saying modern urban culture is the antithesis of spirtuality. it is a spiritual desire because it invokes your spirit. theres no financially profitable reason to go live on acreage and fish and snowboard but it still has spiritual value.

>>55775446

Now you’re asking the right questions. Congratulations, you’re on the right track. Now please fuck off and touch grass

>>55775578
literally the worst thing that happens is you get bored of it and just come back into the fold. people act like if you make a life change that you get executed if you fuck up.

>>55775606
You have yet to provide a single actual reason for anything you're saying

>>55775656
Yeah I truly have a hard time seeing myself getting bored to the point of returning to a more urban or conventional setting. I've done decent stints of this lifestyle and it does 100% get boring for sure, but I greatly prefer that kind of boredom to city boredom.

They'll just import more dalits to prop up the cities. I can't fucking stand boomers for going on with all of this post-WWII infrastructure and urbanization style without questioning anything, while they had all the wealth and opportunity to do so. It realies on thirdie migration because it becomes so unlivable.

I got full remote in 2021. Ended up moving from California to the Midwest and bought a home here.

I'm stuck. None of the jobs here pay anywhere near as much as my WFH job does. My interest rate is below 3%, so buying anything else would nearly double the mortgage payment.

Not sure what to do other than to wait and keep stacking cash. I'm doing better than 95% of people my age which I guess is OK.

>>55772999
I slaved in a job and worked my way up and the stress increased. Meanwhile the mortgage got paid off and some savings grew. I suddenly had had enough and I resigned, "don't go!" They said.

I said to the universe -- I'm done. I give up, it's over to you now.
I booked a ticket to India for 2 months and escaped.

It was the best thing I ever did, the universe has helped me to do what I am meant to be doing and life is so much better.

>>55772999
Their goal is for you to own nothing, and like it. It will be that way for everyone by 2030. Those nasty Kike mountain Khazarians aren’t playing around if you haven’t noticed. They got 70-80% of the world to soft kill themselves back on 2020-2021. Just find a comfy place to watch the world burn, because that’s what’s coming.
