It is unfathomable to me that you believe living out of a car is privileged. I sleep on a camping mat that’s hard as a rock. I pissed in a bottle last night. My car cost under $3k and campsites are virtually free using DOC pass.

Which part exactly of this is privileged?

Not sure if sophisticated troll but either way it’s hilarious.

Owning things really sucks. I would love to live in a camper van. That would be awesome.

Sadly I couldn’t afford a campervan, but my car isn’t too bad, just slightly uncomfortable sometimes.

I’ve been daydreaming about this for years and now that I’m doing it, it is actually as good as I hoped. The cold showers, few possessions, no idea where I’m sleeping tonight, it’s all way better than killing myself to make someone else rich. I feel like I lost the past 5 years of my life. Now my life feels like it’s mine again. I’m in control. And if that means I have to pinch pennies, I’m happy to oblige. It’s a price worth paying.

I hope you get to follow your dreams one day too.
