O.K. here is what galls me. People make a lot of money, I don't stand outside their door and say, you have much, and I only made $4,642.00 total this year so give me some of your money, or I'll kill you and take it.
I choose to live a subsistence life style. What galls me is people always want to be on the gravy'boat. No body wants to be on the bust your a$$ work boat.
What gives people the right to come here and say, "My gravy'boat crashed, I lost my 2.6 million dollar home, my stock options went south, and my pension fund is broke, Feed me".
Life is about choices. Life is about being responsible for the choices we make, all of the choices that we make. The floor of my cabin was 16* F above zero for three weeks, when it was -31*F outside. Why because of choices that I made. Bad choices. So I had to Man-up and tough it out. I did not go to someones house and say my feet are cold, my puppies are freezing, there is ice 3 feet up the walls.
It is my responsibility to have firewood split for two years forward, I don't get to go to my neighbor and say, I spent the summer hiking, and you have split wood, give me some, or I'll kill you.
I have part of the homestead for sale. But people would rather put their money in junk bonds or Google stock options, well that is their choice.
I could sell the whole homestead and buy Google stock, my choice. Remy can stay in L.A. or move to a farm/ranch in mid-America, that is his choice.
I have made a lot of mistakes in this life, made a lot of bad choices. I lost $960,000.00 in the last Real Estate "DEPRESSION" in Alaska, all because I owed a bank $87,500.-- the bank went under, FDIC took over, they called my loan in full in 30 days.
Well guess what boys and girls, this cowboy will never, ever borrow one dollar from any bank ever, never.
Everybody wants the gravy boat.......well maybe the only boat taking on crew is the work boat.
