How to live out of your car

I was at work today and saw a guy in the back of the parking lot getting into a sleeping bag and getting ready to read a good book in his small car with out of state license plate.

What he was doing was living on the road. Following the sun and he was here in the south during the winter.

If you're worried about privacy just buy those cheap window tinting sheets of plastic that you buy at the auto parts stores.

There are no laws against sleeping in the back of the parking lot. Even people that beg for money can only be asked to leave. And most of the time they don't even enforce that. And as long as you're not parked illegally you'll never get in trouble by staying there over night. The worst they could ever do is tell you to "move along". And even if you break a law the only time they will catch you is once out of 100 times you commit it. So it might just be worth the 250$ ticket that one time. This is how rich people driving corvettes always get to park up front in the handy capped spots illegally. They're just willing to pay the $250 ticket when it eventually happens. Also why not just skip paying all of your bills and just skip town and have bad credit for 7 years, because you don't even need good credit to get loans on cars and other things. And who wants to buy a house in this economy, especially if you're living out of your car now.

What you need in your car: Jumper cables, A battery jump start box. A spare battery to replace a bad battery*, Spare tire, Tire iron, tire jack, Hand crank flashlight, emergency cell phone(as long as there's a signal), GPS, anywhere anytime roadside assistance**
*You can run electrinics and heat off of the battery untl it runs dead then just jump start it with the jump box.
**There are always warning signs before the car breaks down. Just know the warning signs and be prepaired to get it repaired before it actually does break down.

This is a great way to save money on rent. If you have a piece of land somewhere you can do the same thing as the parking lot. There should be no need to worry about breaking laws there either unless you live in a crowded area and people complain or you're in a state with strict laws.

You can do this out of any car or van or truck or motor home. The only vehicle this won't work with is a motor cycle obviously. Although the motorcycle and moped are the only form of vehicle in some countries. In a perfect society you may have only motorcycles and mopeds because no insurance is needed and little gas is used and there are less fatal accidents and traffic.

But for now if you have a car and you just lost your job and apartment then this is a perfectly viable plan "B".

Way of life 6

Stone House/Wood Roof : There you go!

It's as simple as that. It's not that complicated.

If you want a house for free that requires almost no skill to make and will last forever and won't even burn down. Then this is for all of the slaves out there that are working for their CEO, who need to be their own boss for a change. This could be the start of a new life.

The Ancient Inca Empire never even had mortar or cement, all they had was adobe to put between the stones, and their structures are still standing!

Stone house: Just have a quarry and a hammer and chisel and break off some rock and build a structure. With home made adobe in between or spend a couple of bucks on some mortar. Build in a fire place or a window and you'll have everything needed to live in. Also make it an A-shaped house for the roof. Anywhere you live if you dig deep enough you will find bedrock.

Adobe: Make your own adobe out of a mud pit where you mix a slurry of dirt and let it dry up for a day and the sand will be at the bottom and the clay will be at the top. Then mix in the 33/66 ration of adobe. You now have your own mortar

Wood Roof: All you need for a roof is something water proof and wind proof. You could have it even made of grass. If the grass was thick enough no water would penetrate. But if you want modern technology just shingle some polyethylene/polypropylene/just any plastic sheets and nail the edges to a roof made of wood poles. Or if you're handy you can even melt the plastic sheets together with plastic weld found at any auto parts store.

Amenities: Add any amenities you want like an air conditioner in the window and a gas powered electric generator, or solar panels for low wattage applications. You can also build an out house that's just a hole in the ground. And as long as you cover it up with dirt it won't stink.
Also every one needs a car, so get one and make sure it keeps running. And have a snow mobile if you are in Alaska.

Cooking: Is a very good skill to have if your self reliant. Even just trial and error works and if you cook enough you'll finally learn to do it well. Catch fish with a fishing boat, or hunt animals or birds with a gun. And grow your own fruits and vegetables.

Free time: Go on all of the vacations you want, with all of the newly acquired free time on your hands. Also just think of how big of a house you could build working 8 hours a day like at any other job. You could get into the business of building log/stone cabins in Alaska and then selling them to snow birds who are retired or want a second home or just rent it out for a vacation as a lease with option to buy.

Forget cable and internet. Why do you need those? Anyways all cable programs are reruns, and I know because I got rid of cable a year ago and still see the same exact shows on my dad's tv and thousands of channels with nothing on. As for internet have you noticed all of the commercials on youtube now and ads everywhere on the internet. It's only a matter of time until every site is a pay site plus the ads. The internet soon won't even be worth going on anymore.

Financial reasons: If you bought all of this stuff from home depot you'd never be able to pay for it all. Which is why houses cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, or a rent of 500$/mo and up. I'd rather save all of that money and start a farm and make money off of fresh produce that is better quality and better prices than the stores. And sell it all at a fruit stand on the side of the road. Even if it's seasonal and just a summer job, it would probably pay better than the 800$/mo job at Walmart. If you factored in money saved on rent then you'd only have to make 300$/mo to break even. Oh yeah and don't worry about the benefits like insurance, or being full time because all businesses are getting rid of all of that very soon, and some already have.

How The World Works In Theory

Survival of the fittest: Examples of this are in the natural world. Also if you have a bigger gun you can kill someone and take their stuff. Also this is how war works, lots of stupid soldiers killing lots of other stupid soldiers, doing what their leader wants, all just to make their leader richer. Also in the job world the better or fitter employees get payed more and the unskilled ones get paid less or don't have a job. And if you have more people in your company or army then you are fitter than the other company or army, and can outlast them. Same with if you know more than them or have better technology. Pure capitalism is the same as war but without bloodshed. But that's just another name for survival of the fittest.

Slavery: The confederates won the civil war. There's the slavery we all know of from the past, but did you know that you're a slave to your CEO. Because CEO's get paid thousands of times more per hour than their employees. This is exactly the same pay scale as slaves getting payed in food, because lots of people are the working poor, who don't even have a higher standard of living by working. We only work for an employer because we have no choice because there's no other way to make money for food or anything, in the same way as slaves have no other choice than to serve their master otherwise they don't get food and get whipped. The CEO's put their hordes of people to work in cooperation to produce very useful products, which is also how they built the pyramids, but with slaves.

Vendors: It used to be that people would have a tent on the street and sell their wares and call it a market, but now every item is in one store owned by one CEO called a supermarket. So instead of having homemade things like food and clothes we now have factory made things that are highly complex and made of cheap materials and cost way more than they're worth. We give our boss most of the money we earn and then we give the CEO of the item we're buying the bulk of the price mark up. Meaning we're working way too hard for what we earn and buy. The old way of doing things is not necessarily worse, it's only a different way of doing things.

Bribery: In order to get the government on their side big business bribes them to make favorable regulations and laws. Also police are bribed with a steady pay low paying pay check to risk their lives to enforce the laws that the government enacted. When business and government are in bed together it's fascism. But that's just another name for bribery.

Nepotism: CEO's are not selected by how good they are at doing their job. They are selected from family and friends of the family that started the company. This is also seen in ancient royal families that owned a kingdom. Proof of this was that I saw a kid fresh out of high school working as a pit boss at a casino. This cushy job placement was not determined by the skill of the kid, but the family and friends he had. Not to mention he was a white guy along with all of the other pitt bosses in this so called Indian casino.

Things You Can Depend On

Like the old saying goes by Benjamin Franklin:

Our new Constitution is now established, and has an appearance that promises permanency; but in this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.
So those are 2 things you can depend on but also there are others.

CEO's will always have to increase the bottom line. Making products more expensive and paying employees less, and cutting jobs or transporting them over seas. They will also cut benefits until there are none eventually. Say good bye to pensions for retirement like the general motors workers did.

Lawmakers have to make new laws. These laws are to help out companies or to make things illegal that don't hurt anyone. If they could find a way to make under the table transactions illegal they would.

Taxes always rise. Read my lips on this one. And when they cut spending yet still raise taxes that just shows how much politicians can get away with.

Crime only rises. A well known fact is that as the economy goes down crime rises. The only way crime goes down is if you move to a less populated area. In the 50's nobody ever had to lock their doors. The only reason we have locks is because people like to steal things.

Population only grows. God almighty is blessing us because every child is a miraculous gift from god. So then why is it a good thing that demand goes up and supply goes down because of this.

Insurance is a paradox. If you need it, you can't get it. If you don't need it, they'll happily give it to you. If you just want one check up per year that's already factored into the yearly cost so why not just pay the doctor directly. Even with universal health care we will still always pay the same amount to the doctors in the end. The only coverage worth getting is catastrophic coverage. But why pay for that when you can get it for free from state run medicaide?

The economy in America can only go down. Because we are now a world economy, all our jobs are being transported overseas because other countries are now building infrastructure. The dollar is becoming worthless. There is no way for entrepreneurs to succeed when there are monopolies everywhere in America.

Rents and bills only go up. Have you ever seen rents or bills go down?

Accidents will happen. As long as you trust other people in any way shape or form there will always be untrustworthy people or just accidents that they caused and you couldn't prevent.

Change is always for the worse. Based on all of the above, I think you'll agree with me on this one!

Definitions

Capitalism: When you have lots of stuff or money, you can make more stuff or money off of that. This leads to monopolies.

Democracy: Majority rule leads to minority slavery. Or 2 wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner.

Socialism: The good of the many outweigh the good of the few or the one. This leads to no productivity when your product is given for free to someone else.

Communism: Good of the system outweighs the good of the people. Or the system is better than the people. This leads to no human rights.

Libertarianism: Do whatever you want as long as it doesn't interfere in a bad way with other peoples lives. Or do unto others as you would do unto yourself. But you could agree to sign your life away also and that would be a legally binding contract.

Manifest destiny: Use military strength to win wars and if god doesn't stop you then he was on your side, and it was your destiny. This is how we took over America from the Incas and the Indians, and all other places. Peace through superior firepower.

Survival of the fittest: Is reality. Whatever works, works. Eat or be eaten.

Right and wrong: Do not exist in reality, and depend on who you're asking. Gold is good for a man yet bad for a donkey. Hay is good for a donkey yet bad for a man. It would be nice if we could choose to do with our life whatever we want and nobody else could make a decision over that. But as long as you're around competition(Other humans) it will always be survival of the fittest. People always just do what they have to do when they have no other choice.

The best way to get out of a bad situation, is never to get into one in the first place!

Don't fight other people's battles. Live your own life and protect yourself.

Increasing the Bottom Line

To increase the bottom line with minimum expenditures and high profit based on percentages, companies do promotions that don't add any value to a product but they still produce more money than usual for the company. This is the bottom line increase that they were looking for without actually producing any actual product. Here are some examples of this theory:

  • The only place you can buy Reese's Fastbreaks is at convenience stores at high prices. And the only place you can find the special tastier holiday variety of Reese's peanut butter cups is during a holiday. Not to mention it only costs less than a penny to produce one peanut butter cup.
  • Contests Like subway scrabble and McDonalds Monopoly
  • Limited edition video games
  • Variant edition comics
  • Just putting the word collectible on an item, like star wars toys.
  • Making a limited run of an item. Limited to only millions.
  • Coupons? That means I don't have to over pay for the item like usual. Wow that's a good deal!
