Yeah the hedge funds are not buying houses in vermont. It is a place like no other and it is very rural and we don’t like big businesses. So it’s not desirable for those big wigs and shit. Maybe do more research and come visit to really understand what the fuck you’re talking about. Also I don’t know a single xenophobic person here but go off

Homesteading is raising all of your chickens for instagram and makong money selling the fantasy to people. while you actually shop at Costco.

lolol 😂 exactly! hes some rich IT nerd from long island who has probably never set foot on a farm, but hes watching The Last of Us and has become inspired to start prepping.

after a year or two, he’ll find out that you have to work your hand to the bone (not to mention have skills that in some cases take a lifetime to learn) in order to keep a multi-acre garden, raise livestock, hunting/gathering/foraging, winterizing/maintenance to your home, etc etc. and that nice cabin he built will go up for sale, and he’ll end up buying a condo with a view in a place like Stowe to ACTUALLY retire in
