Alternative lifestyles...Which would you choose?

27. Houses tiny enough to hook up to trucks

are too tiny to afford much work space and even less entertaining space so if you're at all a social animal, you might want to upgrade to rural cabin.

I bagged the RV idea years ago since they all seemed to be designed for people who are a lot more normal than I am (I have two floor looms). A trailer, on the other hand, was a good fit with low square footage and low cost. I should mention that this is not tornado alley.

There is cheap housing to be had outside cities in most states, as long as you aren't wedded to things like granite countertops and stainless steel everything. Unfortunately, once you get far enough outside cities for that really cheap housing, you run into piss poor internet access unless you're willing to spring for commercial satellite.
