Unnatural Camping Just To Live Rich

HOW TO LIVE RICH IN 2011:

STEP 0. PRINT OUT ANY STATE AND CITY MAPS YOU'LL NEED.

STEP 1. SELL EVERYTHING YOU OWN, OR DONATE EVERYTHING YOU OWN. EVEN HOUSE AND CAR.

STEP 2. KEEP/STORE no ID, no SS# WITH YOU. But do keep/store cash (in 10 dallor bills) and keep/store maybe certain priceless things such as pictures you like.

STEP 3. NEXT, BUY EVERYTHING HENCEFORTH NEW AND AS TO BE ALL THROW-AWAY ITEMS. DON'T BUY ANY ITEM OVER $400 since useful and even fun portable items shouldn't cost over $400.

STEP 4. KEY THROW-AWAY ITEMS TO BUY AND LUG AROUND WITH YOU TO POINTS: CHECKBOOK WALLET, WAISTPACK, BACKPACK, LUGGAGE LOCKS; RAIN COAT, HIGHTOP HICKER BOOTS, SUN GLASSES, THIN GLOVES; TRAVEL SIZED TOILETRESS, FEW RAGS, COUPLE SMALL TOWELS; MIRROR, ANTI-FUNGAL FOOT STAY; whatever item to fend off wild animals.

STEP 5. KEY THROW-AWAY ELECTRONIC ITEMS TO BUY AND LUG AROUND TO POINTS: Electronic Kettle (for heating water or even for making hot cocoa or hot tea; or heating tomatoe soup), portable CB radio (for hitching truck rides in state to further out cities, and to hear weather as a camper should), portable Marine VHF radio (for MAYBE pitching to do odd jobs or just using as a entertaining party line, and to hear weather as a camper should), no contract cell phone.

STEP 6. KEY FOOD TO BUY: DIFFERENT BREADS AND SPREADS, TOMATOE SOUPS, PUDDLING SNACKS.

STEP 7. KEY RESTURAUNTS TO GO TO: ALL THE GOOD ONES BECAUSE YOU ARE RICHER THAN THE AVERAGE CAMPER TYPE. FOR HEALTH REASONS STICK WITH EATING SEA FOOD.

STEP 8. MAKE USE OF TAXI CABS, AND KEEP PURCHASEABLE PHONE CARDS for a no contract cell phone.

STEP 0 (PART 2). GET GYM MEMBERSHIPS beforehand, so you can have place to take warm showers, mainly, but also so you can get a nice work out, and look at the ladies in tights. (Learn which cities you'll go in first, and sign up for memberships online, if you can to get member IDs. Keep your membership ID cards on you. If these must be accompanied by official ID, then do keep official ID with you. OR ARRANGE TO PICK UP YOUR MEMBER ID WHEN IN THE PLACE, if it takes time for them to make you them. Certain places may give membership ID on spot. Make some calls to find out which do what which ways.)


BEFORE DOING ANY STEP, DO A DRY RUN AND SEE HOW IT WILL GO. Before selling or donating everything. You should see that you are richer camping than someone who lives in a house in a middle class area. Since you don't need to pay house note or rent, it means you got more money to do more with and/or continually buy things you can treat as throwaways. Mobile is better than stationary.


MAIN KNOWLEGDE:

WHERE TO CAMP WITHOUT TENT PITCHING (BUT WITH MAYBE A SLEEPING BAG) -

1. AIRPORTS (SPECIAL NOTE: SUCH PLACES BE AS UNCHARTERED MALLS which can serve you well when you are a rich camper.)

2. GREYHOUND BUS TERMINALS


WHERE TO CAMP WITH TENT PITCHING -

1. COSTLY PLACES: BACKYARDS (work something out with home owner who could use either extra money or a hand. Example: be willing to pay $100 for a week. And be willing to pay an extra $20-$30 for use of outdoor electric socket on home owner's home. And/or offer doing odd jobs- if winter, then shuvle - if summer, then mow lawn - if fall, then rake up leaves.).

2. FREE PLACES: WOODED AREAS in or near cities. (LOOK THEM UP BEFOREHAND ONLINE)

3. FREE PLACES: LOCAL BUSINESSES' ALLEY-WAYS (PITCH TENT DURING LATE NIGHT).

4. FREE PLACES: TENT CITIES. (LOOK THEM UP BEFOREHAND ONLINE)


KEY KNOWLEDGE:

GO UP NORTH TO CAMP FOR THE SUMMER, BUT GO DOWN SOUTH TO CAMP FOR THE WINTER.

Travel across state bounds by the Greyhound bus line.

Exponding on step 1... Keep your bank account only if you got over $2000 in it, otherwise close it and get all your money out. If should keep it, then leave your ID and SS# and checkbook and debit card with a relative member.


Entertainment and recreation? Go to movie theaters and others shows and sports games and corners in the area you are then in. Go to arcadias, etc. Smoke fine cigars, etc. Etc.

 

This isn't really "living rich" as it is living far below your means.
Basically it's becoming a homeless person with money.

 

Sure it isnt to some. But others know. Why put up with paying rent when that money can go torward traveling and you can see new things and meet new people. Why stay in same spot for over 5-10 years? That's dull. Rich isnt just about money, it's about living life to the fullest.

Let people call them homeless living types, when surely these don't care how others may see it since they can do more with their money.

 

Smoking nice cigars and going to movies is your idea of "living rich"? I'd rather have a home to go to at the end of the day...

 

Isn't it odd how some people will claim that life and enjoyment of it has nothing to do with material goods, and then blame all of life's problems on material goods? lol

What you own, where you live, what you drive (or don't drive) is totally irrelevant to whether or not you have a 'rich' (most people would have used 'full, instead of rich, which is another indication of the mind behind it) life...

If you have to get rid of everything you own, in order to feel you have a full life, then YOU are the one who is hung up on personal possessions and material goods... not those who own and use such as the tools they are.

 

Was just a suggestion.

If you already got a place that was hard to get, then I see where you're coming from. You've been programmed to pay up, alright, like the rest. If you fear rainy weather, then learn which loctions lack in rainy weather. Fear heat, then go up north for summer. Fear cold, then go down south for winter. Birds can't be more smarter than humans.


Home (apt or house) that is stationary in a country offers what over being a mobile camper? A good bed? That's not enough. There are other forms of things to sleep upon comfy, which people don't even know about in experience wise.

But why knock it before you dry run it?

 

I'd say some could be...

 

now now

 

What? You wouldn't say "now now" if I hit a spike on a setup in volleyball would you?

 

If it hit someone in the face and broke their nose....maybe. But probably not.

 

lol

 

:2thumbsup: Unnatural camping 3-point, quick referrence advice -

Cold winter hourly schedule when down south:

1) During the day go in and out of all sorts of places (from malls to gyms to bookstores to movie theaters to resturaunts to hotel lobbies)... From a sure 10am-to-9pm duration. Helps keep out cold that's outside longer.

2) Then from about 9pm-to-1am go into a nice stripper club. Helps keep out cold that's outside even longer.

3) And then from 1am-to-10am you go to a nice spot to get comfy sleep further, since you should be also getting some sleep in the movie theaters during a time in day since it gets dark inside where the screen is. (Or, you go into 24-hour casinos or major airports, particularlly in winter times.)


Malls, airports, and hotel lobbies may also be good for resturaunts for either: breakfast, lunch, snack, dinner, and dessert.

Hot summer hourly schedule when up north:

Repeat cold winter hourly schedule, but the reason will then be to keep out the peak hot hours.

Overall:

For about 10 hours max you may be having some outside time (not a problem in summer time, but could be a problem in winter time), but make use of different hotel lobbies throughout late nights/earily mournings by way of using taxi cabs, if you've done most sleeping during the daylight time. Don't stay too long in one hotel lobby. :sultan: Certain casinos are 24/7. There, you can take your time on simple cheap machines, to last out that particular 10-hour duration out the cold of a winter dark, but be sure you slept mostly during the daylight time. But major airports should serve you way well into those particular 10 hours in winter time at dark.

Make note of all 24-hour open stores and businesses in the area you are in. If you will buy or bring a small laptop or ipod touch, then know that bookstores (such as Barns and Nobles) (and I think certain airports, too, but go check for yourself to be sure) have free wi-fi. Certain people have no problem with paying for wi-fi, and another certain do. But to each his own. Yep, if you really got to go online with a computer type device, then you can do so as also a unnatural, mobile camper, thanks to wi-fi.

 

Why should I go back to being homeless.Living on the streets sucks.

I didn't understand the OP at all. I would actually take my backpack and certain things. Why would you leave with nothing but money ?

 

Some folks live in paid-for places and thus are not paying rent or house payments.

I've done my share of traveling on Greyhound. To me it's a fine "low-budget" way to cover distances with "relative" safety. BUT, I'd say about 10% of the people in a Grehound bus station have really bad B.O. and I could not imagine having to spend any more time than I have to hanging near them or being on a bus with them nearby (even maybe right next to me). And besides B.O., there's other offensive characteristics that enough of them have that I don't want to be around them.

Of course, your milage may vary!

grey hound sucks and is way to expensive. i use rideshare, or do traditional hitch hiking. you also forgot to mention what if you travel with a dog? you need service animal tags if your going to use any public transportation. ive slept on the street, in my tent, but i usally use www.couchsurfing.com and i find a place that will let me crash there, with a shower, and food to eat.

also you forgot to mention one of the greatest tools of all - craigslist. i get rides off cragislist, as well as jobs. i make money as i move.

and sounding from the amount of things u suggested to bring with you, you never think about weight. you have to carry all that shit around with you. thats alot of weight. just for a tent, sleeping bag, and cloths is enough weight. in the summer use a tarp not a tent. there is always local places to get enough water.

have you lived this life style before man? or just been thinking about the best ways to go about it. because this guide just sounds like you thought about it and never did it. seeing as your telling people to take greyhound. why do that? half the adventure is meeting people willing to help, getting to know the people, finding a ride, finding work, finding a place to shower.

if i used this guide on the road, you would be out of money in like. a month. this is a very insouciant guide to go about living out of a backpack.

you cant just do this, half the time if you get cought sleeping at some of these places, you will get the cops called on you. and if you dont have an id, or identify yourself, they can take you downtown for about 6 hours. have you ever tryed eating restruant food all the time? go eat mcdonalds? or go spend 8dollars on a meal 2-3 times a day. nah it dosent really world that good man. you cant just go sit at busiensses and hang out, they will kick you out, or call the cops on you. maybe an airport. but why would you want to go hang out at an airport? remember. you always have to carry your backpack with you. so if your trying to sleep at a restruant. with a big pack. good luck with that lmao.

this entire thing should be rethought out. i could never do half of these things while i was on the road. nor would i ever want to. hitchhinking is fun as hell.

especally when you get picked up by people who own a medical marijuana business and offer you a job trimming and just pays you in dank buds and food. best fuckin life ever.
