i live on ranch, and it cost me less than buying an apartment in california. the downside is isolation from city life. if that doesn't bother you, quality of life shoots up. you'll become obsessed with animals 😂 i have 2 mini cows, mini horses, poodles. must stop, but... learning to train them is too fun. i've included a video of my mini cow giving "hello friend" head nods to my new mini horse i'm also building a soundshed on the property with two hifi audio systems to incept my friends to fall in love with the hobby. over time, you also become interested in being off grid. think solar, starlink, rain catchment, cattle + chickens, herb + fruit + veggie garden. life slows down and you start to value building these skills—to self-sustain. going outside between Zoom calls and just looking at the trees and hearing wind rustle through them is so calming. this is how i grow up. shouldn't have done a full 15 years in the city in between. i've built a bunch of guest cabins, and friends can come stay for a couple weeks at a time. i put guitars + pianos + hifi in their cabins so they can feel creative next up is a giant golf cart racing course that traverses through the property
