I spent 2 years living in the back of a Ford Explorer. In fact, we were homeless at the same time.
What it taught me is that how much doesn’t matter, as long as you have enough of your own property to eat and sleep, you won’t be homeless.
Unfortunately for many of us in our late 20’s early 30’s, the idea of just walking into a career, and having enough money to make a down payment on our first house within a few years like our parents were able to isn’t a reality.
So for a lot of us, if we can afford a tiny piece of land and a tiny house, it’s likely the best guarantee against homelessness we could ever hope for.
The key is owning your land...
