I earned financial freedom at 35. Was living on the streets drug addict 13 years ago. Started in real estate bought some cheap raw land and camped out for some years on it while building bought a couple more by saving money and started building homes on them with cash and hard work slowly. Now own four homes three are rentals and one I live in off grid on five acres beautiful 3k sq ft house. And my rentals are in the greater Seattle area.

31. Live with parents. Work with father mowing lawns a few days a week. In winter work gets slow and I wouldn't mind finding something online if I could, but AI is impacting so many jobs now. As long as I can run my car and have plenty of free time to go hiking, running, exploring I am happy. I spend very little money.. really only car expenses and ingredients as I love to cook. I absolutely resent the idea of a 9 to 5. Just want a peaceful life and to keep learning and growing.

I’d say at 85% or so of seasonal properties you will be sharing a room with a roommate. But there are a few that offer single occupancy housing. And there are a few that offer no housing and you have to find your own place to stay nearby.
