Yep. Great experiment. My thinking was also influenced by a book I read a few years ago. Better Off by Eric Brende published without irony, if I remember correctly, by MIT Press.

Better Off inspired me to move to a small cabin on Vancouver Island; for the past year and a half (and the past order of magnitude of revenue and team size growth!) I've lived and worked in this cabin.

That book helped me stay sane during an extremely hectic time of life, I highly recommend it. Nice to see it getting a plug here :)

Wow. Cool story. I assume you've seen the PBS special "Alone in the Wilderness"
