Ever thought about living in a house boat or sail boat, away from this establishment? Currently I work 70 hours a week. With higher taxes on the way, I'm thinking a plan B in the wilderness wouldn't be healthier.

I go boating on the river a lot ....and think this thought every time I pass an island or sand bar.
I then qeastion my self...who owns or has rights to these small properties of land.
Government restrictions have gone beyond the roof with American living..Economy has become a constant rising nightmare.
..people do not want to be your freinds unless your rich, so for me freinds are none exsistent.
I'd love to have my own island some place....located out in the middle of no where.
IV even heard rumors of millionaires pumping soil up from the oceans floor in non international water...just so they can create a non taxable living space.

I would love to live on the water some day. I think it's less stressful and more peaceful. I am the type of female that loves to be around water as well as nature.

Best deal I have seen is a nice houseboat and doing maintenance-home care-house sitting for snowbirds with homes and docks they only use part time. Kept my house boat at my shrimp camp and stayed on it while shrimping when the camp was rented. Never a problem as long as I took them out some or kept shrimp in their cooler

A houseboat on FRESH water might be a mosquito nightmare.
A houseboat on Saltwater might periodically be threatened by weather and rogue waves and winds, tsunami, and tides.
We are seeing more and more historic berths for houseboats closed by the EPA and other government do-gooders and the house-boaters evicted from wherever they are moored and finding it harder and harder to secure one of the few remaining spots where houseboats are still legally tolerated.
It is a romantic, enticing notion (living on a boat) till you look deeper into all that it involves.
That is putting all your eggs in one basket, and no "plan b" if it doesn't work out if you sell your land based home to go "all in" to the prospect of living on the water.
It would be much better to rent a houseboat for a couple months a year when the weather is best for that kind of adventure.

We too are seeing the same government crap on state lakes. We have a boat dock that we have to purchase yearly permits for. we appliedfor a permit to tear down the old dock and replace it with a brand new one. The permit was accepted to tear down the old one but denied the permit to build a new one in its place. So we rebuilt the old one.

I think about it all the time. Thought about 2 acres on a river, build an earth bag house- their fire proof, wind proof, flood proof. But a houseboat would be even better.
