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.

Lost Paradise

The problem with paradise the getting to it. Paradise being an undeveloped lush place where you can sit on the beach and drink special drinks and do nothing but be alone. This usually only exists in undeveloped countries. A candidate is Osa Peninsula Costa Rica. I saw it on an episode of survivor man.
So to get there would be an extreme endeavor of travel and paperwork and risks and expenses, but if you could get there in your own boat somehow and live out of the boat and afford to not work, then you could just stay there and experience paradise for as long as you wanted.
So the hardest part about paradise is just getting there.

• Bring infinite source of obtaining food and water. Spear fish using a "Hawaiian sling" with paralyzer tip. But using nets is more efficient use of time and energy. Sweat from heat necessitates water source. You can get all the nutrition you need off of coco nuts alone, but you still need variety to stay sane.
  
• Bring tape and alcohol for wounds to not get infected(it's not the cut that kills you, it's the infection).
• Only beaches have coco nuts.
• Leaf rub test: Rub types of leaves on parts of arms and wait a few hours for a rash to break out, if they don't, then you have your new source of tp.
• To cool down be next to a stream that has cool mountain water.
• Move boat if there's a storm
• Just leave if you ever get bored with this type of paradise and instead visit another paradise that you saw on another episode of survivor man.

It's risky to get to paradise, like the saying "People are just dieing to get into heaven!"

When I quit my job that's where I'm going, someday!
